Woke up early, prepared my work area for making an arch for my niece's wedding. Wife doesn't like my thoughts on it, but that's nothing new.

Right now, I found a way to make the couch more comfortable (wasn't allowed to choose the couch, so got stuck with one that is uncomfortable as all hell, and hurts my spine). So I can sleep with my cats. Spine and food (GERD) is trying to kill me, though, but that's nothing new.

Ooph! you need a win!

I'm glad your working on a passion project, how did you design your Arch?

[–] ChamelAjvalel 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've got three ideas, but all using the same basic foundation. Four legs, two walls, and a removeable top piece (if lucky, a rounded arch, if not, a triangular arch. Depending on the kinds of branches I can find. Sort of a half desert, grassland, around here, so not a great location for wood hunting. ).

This is my first choice for the sides

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That looks nice. Glad your putting such thought into it

[–] ChamelAjvalel 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh, that's just the tip of the proverbial iceberg. I've got plans to incorporate a plaque that can be hung on a wall afterwards, that will use elements of both her grandpa, great uncle, and this uncle, heh. I've got my part figured out, just need to finish the other two..and I think I just got my dad's figured out. He was known for growing russian olives, and there's only a few branches left...I could carve a heart in a cross section, and place one of my claws in side of it...That's what I'll do...Now just one more...For our great uncle...We'll be heading to his farm to find something next week. 🤞

Wow, thats really personal! Glad you incorporated a little bit of everyone. I'm sure it will be a big hit.

My cat might need to go back to the vet, so I'm stressing about how much that's going to cost, as his insurance has already been wiped out by this issue.

I'm not focused at work, and haven't achieved anywhere near what I should have done by this time today.

Probably because of the cat stress, to be fair.

[–] derpysmilingcat 2 points 1 year ago

I'm not surprised you're not focused. Poor kitty I hope they get better soon.

Woke up late. Have end of the month bills to pay. Need to arrange some annoying appointments. Still procrastinating

Good job, look at you go :)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Thank you. Spending money is so easy. Paying bills hurts so much. It tears at my soul!

Now... what to buy next, lol

I am sick. Pretty sure it isn’t anything serious, but it feels like it is.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Feeling under the weather always comes with a side of paranoia. How are you coping? Resting in bed?

[–] PawjamaParty 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have period cramps and my period in general is making my chronic illness worse. My mood is pretty good tho, just hoping that I'll feel better soon so I can do some work and play some witcher 3 later.

[–] derpysmilingcat 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm sorry. I had bad period cramps all of my life so I understand. I hope it gets better for you.

[–] PawjamaParty 3 points 1 year ago

It went away. :) A painkiller and a nap is always a winning combo.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

We decided to be friends with my 1 week fling. We holded hands then I developed feeling for him too soon. I thought he was reciprocating to my feelings when he kissed me and hold me and fondled my breasts yet he wasn't feeling the same way he says. He wants to be friends in some sort of first stage apparently. He didn't say that to me to not make me sad. Then why we fucking kissed and played and shit in fucking 1 week? I am confused. My heart is broken. I hate my hopeless romantic self.

My ex who keeps trying to come back to talk to me in-between girlfriends just found another one again. I think I've had enough of trying to be nice. Especially since I keep getting blamed for when he disappears. Like I'm the one that stops communicating.

They say you're not supposed to look at situations that happen to you as "evidence" that life is one way or another, but at this point there's too much evidence to ignore.

I am not a derpy smiling cat today. Today cat is tired.
