Haircut + Family Lore Dump + Art
Jul. 18th, 2025 01:16 amAll I've been wanting this week is to come here and yap but life happened a lot this week! I'll be back later to catch up but I need to unload brain soup a little.
1. I went to get a bob-like haircut. It's the shortest it's been since college.
( 💇🏻 haircut. we bob now. 💇🏻 )
2. I went with my MIL, who is a very cool fellow bi. She is in a happy WLW relationship and I love'em both. But she dropped some Lore (with a capital L) when she drove me back home. It's not my story to tell all haphazardly, but I'll just say it was full of heartbreak, queer yearning, US south-flavored religious trauma, internalized lesbophobia, sorrow, tragedy, and an untimely death. :(
But I've barely gotten to process all that because...
3. The next day, I had to scramble because I completely forgot my I had agreed with my friend to reschedule our body doubling meetings to Wednesday. She kindly waited for me on Discord, and we got to hanging.
I fear I've been yapping too much during what's supposed to be work time. :( I would like to be a bit more mindful of that.
Either way! I finished a Litleo for![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
javert who was a darling and released some super cute Trubbish icons to the world.
I posted the art with bg color in my art journal, but~
( 🎨 here's the transparent PNG version! 🎨 )
Will I ever figure out how to properly make images responsive is the question...
4. ANYWAY, THAT SAME DAY (at night)... after I was done with the drawing... I got a migraine!! :(
I started feeling funny but I thought a gummy was hitting me weird. Then I closed the office room and by the time I went to bed I had a ~gnarly~ headache on the right side of my head. I was also dizzy, sound-sensitive, light-sensitive, and all that jazz.
I only started getting migraines in adulthood. My mom has gotten pretty bad migraines occasionally though, though I don't remember having any as a child. Mom says I need to talk to my doctor about it. Which, yes, I know I do. I just need the executive function to make an appointment with the doctor's office in the first place.
Either way, MIL is helping me with that so hopefully I get to go soon to address stuff. Maybe before the orange overlord's Medicaid Cuts kick my ass. :(
5. Same Body Double Friend and I videocall on Thursdays for Baldur's Gate. But we decided to turn it into "movie time." We watched KPop Demon Hunters. I posted my thoughts about it on letterboxd but I'll add them here.
6. Then I finished the day with a 4 hour phone talk with my mom. I hadn't talked to her in over 2 weeks, and she was too sick to answer my calls this past week so we had much to catch up on. I've missed her dearly so I'm glad we chatted. I'm happy that she's trying to take better care of her health. We both have the type of ADHD that we kind of leave things be for too long. Hearing her want to try to do better is motivating though. I was already trying to eat a bit better, so I'm more inspired to do so. We have to mind our sugar and kidneys.
Omg, I wanted to be done with this in 20 minutes but the yappin' just don't stopppp (and HTML learning curves...
)
Okokok good night!! After I get some rest, I want catch up with Sunshine Revival and some very sweet comments I've been spotting from my e-mail! :^) I love it here in dreamwidth btw. People are so nice and attentive.
xoxo!
