CW: Medi-Cal, stress 

I need to remember to call medi cal in the morning.

I moved counties so I think I might need to reapply to a new health care plan or something.

I've been putting off doing this because the idea is so stressful, but I very much need to see a doctor and anyway test strips are too expensive without insurance.

Wish me luck doing the Big Scary Thing tomorrow.

Gonna go to bed early and maybe call in sick for the first half of tomorrow too.

Ripppp any expectation of getting a liveable paycheck this month. -_-

Hi friends~

How is everyone doing tonight?

I worked for the 1st half of the day, then went home sick. My immune system is still getting used to kiddos!

CW: food, diabetes 

Someone named Ginger Vieira wrote a book called "Emotional Eating With Diabetes" and omg! I haven't read it yet but I struggle so much with emotional overeating while type 1 diabetic and I think reading it might help me build a better relationship with food.

CW: autism (cute), food 

Last week I taught a group of about 6 autistic kiddos, aged ~ 3-6.

We were making rice crispy treats.

I passed around the bag of marshmallows and asked the kiddos to add 2 spoonfuls to the mix, and not to eat any.

Tl;dr, we accidentally enacted the classic Psych 101 marshmallow test, and it was *so cute*.

Halppp this fragile queer bby only got 6 hours of sleep last night

CW: food, fluff 

So defo one of my happy memories so far this year is going to be eating its-its on my kitchen floor with an extremely attractive girl. :3

Date update:

Cutiefriend is, indeed, ✨cute✨

What if I told u I could be both yr hardass jock grrlfriend & yr sweet-but-shy boifriend? :O

CW: food 

"I know I'm getting food in an hour but I had to finish the veggie stix! The bag was almost empty!"

It's the Superb Owl, Charlie Brown!

While the rest of the Peanuts gang watches the big game, Linus waits in the woods for the Superb Owl to arrive bearing nachos.

Okay! I napped for 5 hours!

Time to wake up/attempt to cute-ify before I go see cutiefriend.

Had a very sports lesbian morning! Went for a 45 min jog, then got brunch with my running buddy (brunch being the gayest meal of the day).

Now I'm going to read naked in bed, nap for a bit, and head out to Oak town later to visit the cutie friend. :3

What got me thinking about this was my roommate saying "I can't imagine you being subservient in a relationship."

Which is just... Super weird to me. Because a) why do I come across one way to her and a different way to others? And b) her concept of me (strong-willed, self-assured) is so different from my self concept. How am I giving off such a different impression?

I want to develop better social self awareness. I feel like I have very long understanding of my impact on others in social settings, and being able to reflect on that and modulate it would be a useful skill.

I had an extremely nice day off today!

Slept in, jogged, got some chores done.

Then went to Sacramento to redeem my last massage and visit my pal.

Tomorrow I have more jogging, breakfast with a friendo, then getting vegan food with cutiefriend.

💚💜💙🌼🌷🌱

How do you define 'taking care of yourself'? Create a new self-care practice today. Observe your comfort level when it comes to being good to yourself. Discomfort is a wise teacher. ~ Caroline Myss and Peter Occhiogrosso
