In lieu of lengthy explanation, I’ll just say my ex admitted to emotionally cheating on me at the end of the relationship and that that was the motivating factor behind the breakup, not all the other stuff I had been sort of agonizing over. I had suspicions before she said anything and basically assumed it…

Sorry, I’ve been moving, so I haven’t had any time to sit down and write. But I’ve been doing it in my head for a couple days – I’ve got some good ones cooking I think. Tentative topics are the move (potentially featuring a fun walkthrough video so I can gloat about my free, nice…

I’m supposed to be asleep, but that’s getting harder and harder these days. I’m just always hot. I’ve resorted to just laying on the cold tile for a good 20 minutes before I try to get in bed, hopefully to just bottom out my body temperature for long enough for me to fall asleep. It…

As we all are so painfully aware, I am going through it. That’s the point of this whole project, right? Dissecting myself, my emotions, and my habits, analyzing past memories for crumbs of insight, crude meditations on the purpose of life and fulfillment, some inane musings on bugs, all of that. It was all for…

whoops. Apparently the endeavor of driving three hours with no nicotine and then being at home was too much. I bought one pod and will attempt again when I get back home. I’m a little ashamed that I only made it three days, but I won’t give up! last night I had a really great…

Nicotine withdrawals are really hard. Last night, I slept okay, but I woke up at like 4:00 a.m. laying in a literal pool of sweat. I don’t know if the withdrawals are making me sweat or the heat, but I don’t think that much liquid has ever left my body in my life. So I…

Happy Saturday, everyone. Today is the second-to-last day of me vaping, I’m on my last pod so everything should work out perfectly. Starting with the next work week, I will be nicotine free forever! Scout’s honor. Also, it’s Fourth of July week, queue the Sufjan. I think I’ll head home for a bit sometime this…

Today was the day. I felt restless around lunchtime and trekked out to the jewelry shop where I had first purchased the ring. Even though the return policy of “exchange good for 7 days, refund good for 30” was written in bold ink on the back of the receipt, I figured it was worth a…

Small life update: I fucked up at work and was very scared I was going to lose my job. Fortunately, that is not the case and I’m just on probation for the remainder of my time in my position. That’s stressful in its own way, but compared to the alternative, you’ve got to be happy…

A couple friends and I went to a speakeasy type thing on Saturday and on the way back, we got to talking about music. I love music, as cliché as that is, it might be my singular favorite experience on the planet. I’d like to believe that’s universal, I mean if you think about it,…
