Mr. Pillow Stealer

Thank you to those who sent some money my way. It about covered my trip up north which is a relief because I’ve had to take five days off that I didn’t have sick time to cover, so those are unpaid. My back has improved though I still feel unstable and the area around my left SI joint is swollen and it hurts. They say the more you move the better you feel but I’m so afraid of hurting myself again I don’t want to try anything until I see my doc/a physical therapist, since I’ve even had strains from walking before. I’ve also been so fatigued I’m moving slower than usual; I don’t know what the cause is, the virus that I’m finally getting over or the inflammation. I have very little appetite. My health right now is just not ideal.

My mom is holding up, though she’s really stressed. We talked a couple of days ago and she admitted to me that she was too harsh with me discipline wise when I was a kid, and she thinks it contributes a lot to my depression/anxiety now. It made me cry to hear that. It came up because one of the things that bothers her most is that my brother is everything she (we) hate. A violent bully who takes out his insecurities on women around him, who is literally looking for an excuse to assault my mom every day. He is dead to me. Because he avoids me when I’m there and I stay in the room I only ran into him once really and it took everything in my power not to beat the shit out of him.

Anyway. I’m tired, so I’m going to take a shower and go to bed. Gryphon and Phoenix in the reply.

I wouldn’t turn it down honestly if you can spare it. The gas is a killer.

I'm going up to get some stuff from my mom's. Not looking forward to the drive but I'm getting nervous, I have some money to pay for gas, and I don't want her to lose anything she wants to keep if something happens suddenly. The auction is on the 4th. My uncle hasn't called me back. I want this to be over.

Also this. Horrifying.

I could really have used a normal thanksgiving but I just found out my aunt and cousin are there At grandmas, so at least I missed that when we cancelled our trip.

The koala article was allegedly written by some Forbes contributor who didn’t actually know what they were talking about.

so crazy sister has her tied down?

Has anyone seen the birthday girl? Should Tac start checking dumpsters behind bars?
