toilet broke, that sucked. but fixed it after awhile.
otherwise pretty good. looking for a cat to adopt but not really finding one that fits the personality I’m looking for, way too many shy and skittish and afraid of dog ones. no rush though. maybe by August I’ll find a new cat. I don’t really want to get a cat from a breeder.
- Comment on The ups and downs of life 1 day ago:
No. My life has never been constantly up or down. And I really enjoy that. Bad stuff happens but it’s mostly annoying and inconvenient at this point. Like yesterday my toilet broke, but it was not a big deal as after some research I was able to resolve the issue and only had to live with a shit filled toilet for a few hours.
I vastly prefer my day to day consistency, hence why I am doing a lot better alone than I ever was when I was in relationships. Ever singe I have been single since 2016 or so, it’s been on a smooth upward trajectory in pretty much every aspect of my life.
I also have had a much easier time dealing with shit when it does happen, because my baseline is so much higher than it was, and I don’t have to live in fear of my caring about someone else in my life being a ‘threat’ to my partner. And I think about how the toilet incident day would have had someone panicking and freaking out and demanding we call an emergency plumber and spend $2000, rather than someone who would let me just take my time and fix it for free, or worse, spend the few hours berating and harassing and screaming at me for not magically making it go away instantly.
I have been cruising for about 10 years and I’m loving it, and hope my life continues to cruise until I die. No more drama for me, thanks. Boring stability is the best because it turns trauma into nothing more than a speedbump.
