I hope no one thinks my getting emotional with you is flirting or anything. I’m so afraid of people misreading things, getting banned again… I can’t lose you guys again.
I agree. But again, stating here, it's not flirting, and I don't want to be misconstrued that way, and I'm heavily ill-advised as a partner any-dang-way. 😅
I’m too much of a paranoid messed up mess with PTSD and an eating disorder. It would take a saint to marry me. Lol
Heh, would a saint be fun enough to be around? I can relate though...
Good point. I’ve had (and have) friends like that. It’s like… not everything out of your mouth needs to point back to the Bible. Like, you can have fun and make jokes and stuff too. I can’t explain it exactly, and I’m obviously not hating on the Bible, but I’m just saying that people who are SO laser-focused like that can be a bit boring and not as much fun to be around yk?
Oh, very much so. 😂 I've had a lot of people like that in my life. They can still be important to me in their ways, but I can't be central to their lives when they want to cherry pick aspects of me because I choose to embrace other things. Their focus can be good until it's myopic, and then it's like... Walking on eggshells, no crunching allowed.
Yep. They can also be more judgmental than others.
Sayin'. Even when they're trying to take a non-judgmental stance.
Sayin’?
It's a turn of phrase for agreeing with someone, especially if it's something like what you actually say.
Sayin’. ;)
He finally texted me.
Ooh, nice! How'd it go?
He asked me to do something work related lol, but we’re talking a bit more now :)
Im super glad to hear that! 😊 Heh, he might have been just as nervous as you
Now he’s not responding again… Maybe he wants work-related only? Idk
That wouldn't be the worst, would it? Lots of people get like that though, or maybe he's just starting over like that because it's hard to come back to having anything feel normal so quickly.
True… I guess lol
Hopefully it gets better than what it is soon
I tried a pepino melon today <3
Ooh, what's that like?
Like… kinda like a cantaloupe, but softer? I’m not a huge fan of the flavor, but it wasn’t bad. You peel it and eat the inside, but scoop out the seeds and stuff, like with a cantaloupe. The peel is edible too, but a bit bitter, says Google. It’s really pretty on the outside :)
Hmm, that could be worth trying. The only one I really didn't like was winter melon. Tastes a bit liked canned pineapple with a melon texture
I like canned pineapple. Lol
You're wrong. 😜
YOU’RE wrong. ;)
Fresh pineapple = 9.5
Canned pineapple = 1
Out of ten. That's how my taste buds would rate it. 😂
Fresh is too much work XD
Whaaa? XD You literally yank the crown off, and cut off all the sides of it. I mean... I do have to confess that I've wasted pineapples before by being too lazy to do that in time though .. 😅
I don’t have a kitchen so stiff like that is even harder. And I waste fruits the same way lol
That makes sense. I still feel like one good kitchen knife and a cutting board is really helpful
I use a knife and a paper plate. It works I guess lol
Also, a pepino melon sounds huge, but it fits in your hand. It’s cute and has a pretty peel :)
Sounds yummy maybe. I'll try to find one
I’m sorry I’ve been slow about responding…
No worries!
Low bandwidth and all that.
Lol, same
Why
Too much week, not ever enough weekend
THAT’S MY LIFE XD
Heh, right? Do you at least get holidays off?
Nope. I work tomorrow. lol
Ugh, I know the feeling. I get maybe one holiday off a year, which is either Thanksgiving or Christmas... And I work every other Saturday.
Lucky you. Lol
Lol, I guess there is holiday pay... For some of them.
It didn't add in the last word of that message, I was saying that I work every other Saturday.
I called out. Started feeling yucky last night :(
No bueno, doing any better?
Sorta. My headache is gone, but my stomach felt foul earlier and my leg still hurts for no reason. Maybe I have cancer lol
Lol, no cancer for you. I hope those get better soon too
You don’t know that.
I feel confident. 😜
I’m scared to know what I’m doing to myself.
Probably not that much. The body is remarkably good at healing itself. I wouldn't worry about that, I'd just focus on making efforts and maybe keeping logs of it. I should maybe consider that last part too.
I’m in pain and idk why :( I didn’t do anything to my legs. Also, random tummy cramping. Not bad, just like… why?
Bodies are remarkably good at hating us too. 😅
Mine especially has a vendetta against me XD
Saaaame. 😅
Why?
Why?
That's a very good question. I try to take good care of my body, and it always wants to have some kind of problem. And if I didn't cause a problem, it makes something up.
Sounds like mine. Random leg pain and bumps. Rude. Lol
Lol, it truly is rude 😂 I chipped a tooth... So there's yet another thing.
I’m afraid to ask how. Lol
I was just eating. No fun story this time 😂
What on earth were you eating?? Rocks?????
Nothing even that hard. I have no idea.
You have skills.
Apparently 😅
Whyyyy do I stay up so late and then want to sleep for years lol
I did too. I couldn't get it together
When?
Last night. I started doing Chocobo racing on my game. Got stubborn about finishing it. 😅 Chocobos are fictional, like ostriches but bigger, can be ridden.
Sounds familiar. What is it exactly?
Just what it sounds like, they're huge yellow (usually yellow) birds that you can ride through places, and then you can do the races. It felt like a cheap Mariokart, but I beat all of them lol
Honk.
They make a "kweeh" noise. 😁
Lol
You ever go to farmer's markets? I had a lot of fun at one today.
Haven’t been in years. Is it just the typical fruit or is there exotic stuff as well? I LOVE their fresh kettle corn <3
Maybe not as much exotic, but definitely inventive. I got a good mushroom coffee lol. And an insanely good bag of popcorn and a cupcake. I also tried yuzu matcha tea, and that was insanely good too.
What’s mushroom coffee taste like?
Earthy, but tasty
So much pain…
See my last post
Which post? The one above this one? What's wrong?
....and, me too. I'm having a hard time today.
Look in general support.
What’s wrong? :(
I think I replied to it? It was the only other one I could find.
I was having an especially hard time yesterday. It was hard to remember the good in the world, when it seems like we're bringing ourselves to multiple apocalypses at the same time. Like AI and robots making surprising choices, extinct species getting brought back, world war, extreme pollution that they've discovered basically covers the floors of the world's oceans... People buying into what obviously evil leaders are saying... What Tiny went through. Everything just feels so unbelievably pathetic and wrong.
Just remember: Jesus is King. And “Vengeance is mine, saith the Lord.” He will take care of it all… Cast your cares on Him.
Sorry... I'm glad that your faith helps you, but it's not my thing...
That made me wanna shut down
You're good, I mean, I'm not offended or anything
:(
S'all good, you were acting in character. 😊
I thought you were reading the Bible with me
We should read and discuss it still. When I read the whole thing on my own, I was expecting to feel more conflicted and curious. As it happens, educating myself on the parts I hadn't gone over before makes me feel significantly further away from faith than ever before. But again, it's worth discussing with you. Yours is a take that I actually value, whether or not I can feel the same way.
Sounds good to me :) Sorry I haven’t been doing it like I should.
Awesome 😊 and no worries, we can pick up anytime.
Why am I so bad at this?
You're not. 😜 It's an open thing and your focus has just been addressing other things
I don’t see a response from you on that post. Did it glitch again?
I don't think it's a glitch, I just couldn't find it, I'll look again
I think I called it “I Just Need to Vent” or something.
I feel… yucky. :(
For why? Is it anything besides what was on your post?
Well now add your post to the mix…
