Such a newb - added not so much tags to the photos as blurbs. Got it; tags for real next time. I have a third cat but not a good picture of him here yet.
Fall's bad, wow. The move sucked, then the sprain, then the knee and here's something i didn't quite get before but i get now - if you're like me and you do have a Condition (in my case WTF Pain all the time + Whatever Disease) an injury shuts you the fuck down. I've gone so many days in a row without talking to humans other than Husband. I wanted to walk a bunch around the neighbourhood to begin exercising and nope.
Ok, to be real, i do not have 'let's go visit X' friends anyhow. I am that weirdo in your neighbourhood that is super happy to interact with children and pets but around adults of the typical type i tend to be cold, awkward, or neckbeardy. Pain makes me a bit blunter, and i can be a blurter. Anyways. None of that matters, we've all got our warts, i just can't seem to unclench to either level up an acquaintance to friend level or to make a friend. I feel, i dunno, too unreliable an investment?
I really do think i'd be in considerable trouble with my mental health (another fun fact: being in pain all the time literally makes you crazy, specifically anxiety and sometimes ptsd) if it were not for the internet. And video games. Yeah @Catdad, fallout is my JAM though nowadays the continued shambles the Wasteland is in strains my credulity, but like, not enough to forgo getting my VATS on. Right now i'm mmoing with Elder Scrolls, but i can't quite recommend the game. Well yes. But no. My feelings are complicated on that frigging game, but i love it to be honest.
You know, tho, the short story first draft is almost done and i have Ideas where to expand on the second. This...might work.
