Have you gone to the library yet??
Actually yeah. It's really small... There was a really big and amazing library here, but there's kind of a conspiracy about it. It had to be closed due to major black mold infestations... But it wasn't even there long enough to develop that kind of problem normally. Which means, the contractors were either ripping people off and extremely incompetent, or it was intentionally sabotaged.
Or somone failed or something accidentally leaked. Things happen
True. I just looked into something I remember seeing. They knew about it before it opened, and cleaned it out, while knowing that it was going to come back, without fixing the reasons that the moisture would be able to make that happen.
I wanna try making little dioramas like I’ve seen online. <3
Dioramas can look really cool .. that takes skills that I definitely don't have
It takes supplies that I definitely can’t afford lol. Well maybe, if I bought a tiny bit at a time, but I don’t want to XD
I used to make little houses and things out of cardboard as a kid. I wasn’t that good at it XD
Those are really expensive. 😅
What would you make if you could?
Dunno. I saw an old rusty wall and it looked so real <3
Heh, that sounds cool
Maybe you could find cheap ways to make one really cool one?
I’ve had a migraine for like… 3 days straight. On and off
That's crazy. Umm .. sleep? Balance between rest and being outside? I don't know what helps you best, but that sounds miserable. :/
Tor? I’m REALLY struggling :’(
I’m safe, and no rush
What happened last night? I'm here safe hugs. Um, do you want to talk about it? Or hear about my adventures? I'm on vacation this week (a short one), but it's been busy. I went to the best Asian restaurant ever, where there's a bunch of fish tanks and lights above the tables that look like full moons. I got a spicy fish dish, and got to try this coconut bread, that was baked like a fresh roll with a coconut paste inside. It was sooo good. And then we explored a ton of artsy shops in the arts district, and I bought 3 books. We went to an Asian supermarket too, and I finally tried durian. I like it! Mostly. It almost tastes like a melon custard with an onion flavor in there. Then I worked out a bunch and played a game online with a friend for hours on end. Does that help? Also, I'm going to take lots of pictures today... I think I might try an art project linked with photography.
Just… too much. Not enough rest. So many things out of my control.
What should I do today?
Ooh coconut bread <3
What kind of books?
How was the smell??? And the texture?
What kind of project?
Well, I hope you get some rest today. That's all you should do. 😉
The coconut bread was sooo good.
Um, one is a book about an assassination group, one is about a girl who wants to be a mermaid so bad that she'll murder people for it, and the other... Um... Something about necromancers and a castle in space. They called to me. 😁 Especially that mermaid one for some reason... Don't know why, my eyes kept going back to it.
The texture was custardy, and for the ice cream, there really wasn't a smell. For the actual fruit it's supposed to be really bad.
The project... Digitally altering photos. I wanna give it a try. Make things look even more interesting. We wandered into a guy's studio, and he did a whole gallery he called "new old west". It was... Ok. But I really like the idea.
@Torean
I've been trying new art techniques. Trying to distract my brain... Also found a psychology book to devour. Finished a book today.
Your books choices are very dark lol
Maybe you should watch MerPeople.
You said you tried durian, not durian ice cream. lol
So like Photoshop?
Ooh, nice, what kind of psychology? And art techniques?
Lol, my choices in general tend to be dark. 😁
What's merpeople?
Lol, oh. I meant to say durian ice cream.
Yeah. 😅 Pretty much. Just taken in a really artistic direction.
Bruh... I am eating the best spaghetti ever. So spicy. I wish this place was close to home. Oh my god. I'm sweating, my nose is running, and I want more. They make their own noodles and sauce, and you can tell the difference.
I wanna be normal again.
Whatcha mean?
Not… this. vaguely gestures to all of me
Same.
Why
It was so much easier to be ignorant...
There’s 3 songs you should listen to. They’ve kept me sane for the past few days…
Which ones?
What do you think about Christian music that sounds SO much like Billie Eilish, it’s crazy????
I'm open to it. I like Billie Eilish. Especially as a person.
I can’t say I’ve met her. ;)
Why as a person?
Ok, listen to “idk”, “Liar (Truth Is)”, and “Chemically Messed Up”, Allison Eide. Especially the first two. They’ve been keeping me sane…
She just seems like a good person who gives back, cares about her fans, and isn't afraid to stand up to Elon.
Anyway, those were actually really good. I liked the first too a lot, I appreciate her attitude and sound. 😊
Two*
I don’t really know a lot about her tbh.
Told you! Hehe. So much like Billie Eilish, right???
It really kinda was. Thanks for sharing. 😁
You’re welcome <3
There’s such an intense spiritual battle going on inside me…
Why is it a spiritual one? I saw the other post and I get what you mean... I wish I knew how to best help other than really caring and wanting to be here for you. Maybe just one catalyst could change it all, so I hope your prayers are answered soon. ❤️
I’m definitely under demonic attack.
Catalyst?
Sometimes one thing changes everything, you know?
And if it's demonic attack, just what does the demon want you to do?
Like what?
Kinda like what Job’s wife said. “Curse God and die.”
I dunno, but I'd help you figure it out in any way that I can.
Hmm, maybe so... I never really thought about it like that.
I dunno, but I'd help you figure it out in any way that I can.
Hmm, maybe so... I never really thought about it like that.
It’s like, anything that will drag me away from Jesus, Satan will use.
I can definitely see the logic... I feel like you shouldn't feel threatened though. The more you can come back to what you believe in, the stronger you become. You can use that too.
My faith is so weak.
It sure doesn't seem that way to me, why do you say that?
What’s sad is when you’re eating ice cream you don’t really LIKE and you have a stomachache already. And you EAT A THIRD OF IT ANYWAY
I can relate... Ive done similar things for sure
I gave myself stomach issues.
I did too. I had some sake last night, and it was glorious... But it doesn't sit well with sausage and potatoes.
What’s the flavor like?
Why doesn’t it?
Doing anything fun today?
The flavor of sake? Um, I was drinking it hot. Um, it's a little hard to explain. It has a sharp bitterness to it, but there's a sweetness that comes behind it and just relaxes. It definitely burns a little going down. Pretty easy to sip on.
Unfortunately, after enough, it does have a way of unsettling your stomach, as does sausage.
Not much fun today... I got to leave work early, but it's because my dog is having ear problems. It's acting like an ear infection, but it's because she was scratching at a tick bite area.
Doesn’t sound like fun.
Awww poor baby! Is she ok??
I’ve been having stomachaches and minor nausea… idk why.
Heh, I like it.
She's ok, it's getting treated, but she has to wear a cone. She is very unhappy about that
I dunno either... I had that issue a little bit recently foo
Not my thing lol
THE CONE OF SHAME!!!!
I realized it’s trapped gas. Ice cream eased it. Dairy. Lol! Maybe try that <3
It is the cone of shame. 😅 Poor girl is all glares and awkward lay down positions. She keeps running into everything too...
Lol, yes, ice cream is the answer. Tiny would be proud. 😂 There is definitely something to that though.
It can’t be comfortable. Especially when your body is made horizontally. Lol
Ice cream makes farts??? Hehe
Lol, ice cream does. 😜
I had to take her to the vet again last night. My mom dropped a chicken bone and she ate it. Also, unrelated, she pooped in my backseat before that happened.
Hehe
Is she ok?
Also, ew. Lol
She's ok, I think. They had to induce vomiting, and she had to have meds... It seems that she's got diarrhea just coming out... Hopefully that clears up within the next couple of days
Poor girl. She’s been through so much…
She has. She's gradually done better today at least. Still not happy about the cone. I might try to take it off her tomorrow
Awww
How’s her daddy doing?
So very tired... Only slept six hours thanks to everyone and everything.
How about you?
Wym?
Better than before. Not sure what to do today. Any ideas?
Ugh, a lot keeps happening at night. I keep pulling about 6 hours of sleep.
Glad it's a little better! You should get outside today. That's my idea. It feels like a good day for something outside.
Like what?
Meh, don’t wanna go outside. Lol
Like having to take my dog to the vet .. or not being able to get off the phone with a friend who just never, ever, stops talking. Having to take care of my mom. Everything.
Lol, you should play a video game then. 😁
Why did you answer the phone?
Your mom?
I don’t own any lol. Know any free online games? No FPSs or anything lol
I know his cousin, who wanted to talk to me, and his cousin was on the call for a while too. Said cousin was drunk out of his mind. It was a little entertaining, a little irritating. Maybe a little unsettling. Dude has been drinking constantly from what I hear.
Yeah, my mom wants three drinks filled every night, and a bologna sandwich made to her tastes. It's such an exact ratio. She's quite the critic about her sandwiches. 😂
You could always play Kingdom of Loathing. 😁 I think that website still exists. That game is funny
You REALLY need some new friends.
Lol, why specifically three?
I’m picky about my sandwiches too. Lol
What’s that?
Any others as well? Have you tried Armor Games????
Him? He's an old, old friend. Like... I think it's been something like 20 years. He's not gonna have it easy... He spent a lot of that time in prison over an arson related thing. He's still got the mindset of being in there in a lot of ways. But he's cousins with another good friend of mine (one you'd definitely approve of). He's actually staying with him too. There's friction but they get along really well sometimes too.
Lol, she needs tea, diet Dr pepper, and water.
She needs a very specific ratio of mayo and lettuce. 😅
Kingdom of Loathing is largely text, clicking and stuff, but it's an RPG game. I can't explain it well, you'd have to check it out. 😁
I used to go on armor games all the time, but I don't know what to recommend nowadays.
Wow
Mindset how?
Why? Is he cute? Hehe
Is your mom sick?
Hmmmmm
When was the last time you played “This is the Only Level”? I had to use cheats to beat it lol
Yeah... He's still good at heart I think, it's just... Yeah, the mindset. Like, he calls himself an OG, and just... The stuff that comes out of his mouth sometimes. He's bald, muscular, and tatted up, probably still keeps improvised weapons on his person. I remember when he was a chubby kid with an emo haircut who loved to laugh and was going through too much. I really do remember it like yesterday. He's still fun to be around... I just hope he doesn't end up in any more trouble.
As for my other friend... Bwahaha... I dunno, you might find him cute? He runs 5K like several times a week, so he's in really good shape. Balding a little. He's a good Christian kind of person... Really pure and wants to help others. He was a victim of shaken baby syndrome, and they never thought he'd develop past a certain point, but in his later 20's he started to catch up with everyone else suddenly, and as of recently he has real jobs on orchards, moving towards an actual good career with it. The only issue is that ending conversations with him for the night is nearly impossible. 😂
My mom isn't sick, she's just... She can't get out of the room much. Walking is difficult for her. She often doesn't feel her best stomach-wise either.
Lol, I don't remember... I think I played it when it was relatively new, and then once afterwards. That was pretty fun. I guess there are sequels now
Doooooo wop she dooooo! Woo!!!!
I recognize the reference, but I've only seen it once. 😜.
Hehe... I tell my guinea pigs stories sometimes. I told them the plot of The Croods as a story, and I think that was their favorite one yet.
I was listening to Tarzan songs while drawing last night. Hehe
Only once????
Lol, tell them the Tarzan story <3
Heheh, that sounds fun. 😁 Maybe I should. Maybe I should tell them lots of movies like that as stories. They've been really enjoying watching Angry Video Game Nerd with me too.
Tell them the story of Superpets! There’s an evil Guinea pig in there hehe
I haven't seen that one. An evil guinea pig would probably either offend them or make them take notes. 😁
You’ve never seen it??? I think I saw it in theaters. It’s stupid and cute and funny lol
And you KNOW they plan to take over the world. Just let it happen. XD
Heh, they definitely do. Our world would be way, way better in guinea pig hands. Paws.
Why? Hehe
They're so fun. And they're super kind to any non-guineas. Lots of wisdom too, and they're too cute to dislike
Non-guineas?
Wisdom how?
Right?? Hehe. Although I think rats and mice are cuter <3
Non guinea pigs. They can be mean to each other sometimes though.
They have really high intelligence, and super high levels of chill and kindness. They learn, that's why the wisdom.
Lol, you take that back. Ok, ok, they are cute. I think guinea pigs are the cutest ones though. Followed by rabbits and ferrets.
No I mean when would they interact with non-guineas?
Have you trained them?
I used to own a rattie <3 I’m biased. Hehe! They’re ADORABLE and super cuddly <3
BABY RABBITS <3
Like, with humans. They've met Rosie too, and they're nice to each other, though Rosie doesn't seem to understand why we keep guinea pigs.
They've trained themselves, more than anything else. They learn how to make hideouts out of stuff we give them, where they can poop without making the cage messy really quickly, etc.
Heh, I never got to spend much time with a rat. I do like them though. Baby rabbits are cute. 😁
I haven’t been on much lately
Me neither. I'll probably be on more sometime. That time isn't now though.
How come?
Just got a lot of things I focus on. I feel like I don't have much to say by the time I'm done with all of it usually
To me?
Consider it a compliment that I’m taking a partial break, but I still come back to talk to you <3
Not to you, I mean the forums and stuff. I like checking in and talking to you
I'm really glad to mean a lot to you. ❤️ You mean a lot to me too.
Awwww <3
