Me: Hey brain, I need something simple but time-consuming that brings order to something less than ordered.

Brain: Hey how about you sort your magic card collection like you've been meaning to, so you can actually find stuff when you look for it?

Me: ...

Brain: Gauntlet thrown, wiseass.

Holding up, more or less.

Damn him anyway.

Number of panic symptom onsets today: 3

Day's not over yet, but good on me I guess.

trauma anniversary, chest growth 

Waking up this morning with my chest showing in the mirror through my nightshirt was everything I wanted from a morning.

I mean, then I remembered what day it was, so that part wasn't so nice. But the first few moments were okay.

past trauma, anniversary 

You ask me if I am okay; I am not. Not until the anniversaries are done. Not as long as this part of the cycle is here.

"Okay" is for other months, other weeks, other seasons. Autumn is too much about the fall for me. There were good things and they ended; October is the burial month.

past trauma, anniversary 

October falls like a hammer. I used to like this month, with its crisp air and beautiful trees. But then...

The 2nd is the date I discovered I had been betrayed by the one I trusted most.

The 13th is the anniversary of my brother-in-law's death.

The 15th is the anniversary of the death of a friend I had since high school.

There is nothing in October for me until it ends. The day we can take off our masks is the only good part. And that's the end of it.

past trauma, anniversary 

Tomorrow is October Second. Three years ago, that was the day I found out That Monster had betrayed my trust. The anniversary of my shattering. The day that broke me.

I'm not feeling too good about it. I'm definitely feeling less estate today; I desperately wish I could take a personal day from work, but no.

Just gotta make it through. Keep moving, don't think about it, survive. Eventually I will heal.

"sword lesbian" is officially the best D&D paladin archetype, it's scientifically proven

the old teenage bicycle 

Brought my old bicycle into the shop, after years of neglect (most of them being not having enough money to get it fixed up). It's repairable, but... it's small and I'm bigger and we don't really match each other anymore. Repairable, but the guy at the shop recommended I donate it to a nonproft bike shop and let them fix it up for someone who needs it.

Surprisingly emotional about it, given that I've barely touched the bike in years.

She was a really good bike, though.

My big observation here is that UB Pirates needs a little more evasion than just Menace and some dinky flyers. Thank heavens for Blue being able to steal creatures!

re LB: Not just a board stall- because of the treasure that's a 14/14 Pirate! And on my side a 10/10 dino, plus several 5/5s and a 7/7. At the end I was generating 3 +1/+1 tokens a turn, @Soreth was making 2-3 treasure.

It ended when Soreth stole my only flyer, so I had to attack or lose. 8 damage got through, wasn't enough. I was a few cards away from drawing something that would have let me steal the big pirate.

We had a board stall.... all the face-down cards are treasures.

One of those mornings where you look out at the world, smile peaceably....

...and then hit the world with the Howard The Duck movie theme at 100db. Just to show them what could happen.

What could happen if they don't behave.

Oh hey, that's why... I didn't take my pills this morning. No anti-cistamines, no anti-depressant, no estradiol. No wonder I feel like shit

Pretty sick of the villain characters being the queer-coded ones, and the movements that attempt to "redeem" villains by painting them queer.

nerf report 

Successfully took on three people in one round today, and got them all out without taking a hit myself. Feeling great about that, I haven't lost the ability to dodge darts.

Gave a whoop at the end of "You can't hit me if I can see them coming!", which is maybe a little too boastful, but damned if it doesn't feel like that sometimes.

Oh my freakin' head, what did I deserve to wake up with this headache?

I have a lot to talk about at therapy this morning.
