I have therapy today, and I thought I’d talk about how I don’t give myself a break. Even though it’s been 11 years since I left an abusive relationship, I still feel guilty—like I was the one causing harm. There’s a clear divide between what I know and what I feel: I don’t give myself…

Tuesday, feeling like a Monday
Suddenly, many people on TikTok are talking about Gilmore Girls Fall, and I can’t help but laugh at how an old show like that is taking over again. It makes sense, though—the cozy, small-town vibe and witty banter are perfect for autumn. I used to never miss an episode when it was on TV, and…
Slow Friday
I finished Summer in the City last night. It was a cute, fun read, though the ending dragged on a bit too long. There were several moments where I thought it was wrapping up, only for the author to add more drama and stretch things out. The main character frustrated me at times—her pride and…
Still rambling
I got home a few hours ago and jumped into coding. At first, I felt a little lost—overwhelmed by the multitude of tasks I needed to accomplish. A few minutes and a cup of coffee helped me get grounded. Starting late in the day always makes it harder to focus, and that’s usually when procrastination…
Wednesday rambling
Around 10 a.m., I always get hungry. The problem is, I still have two hours to wait until lunch. I’m making some hot tea to hold me over. I’ve already had two cups of coffee, and I don’t think my stomach would appreciate another. I boiled some eggs for my lunchtime ramen, which I’ve been…
Rescheduling appointments again
It’s a gloomy, rainy day, and I love it. The rain always brings me a sense of calm. It’s not that I don’t enjoy the sun, but there’s something peaceful about the quiet, gray sky and the steady sound of rain. It feels cozy, too. I’ve got a cup of coffee by my side and…
Monday ramblings
The pain in my right ear is finally starting to ease up. The doctor prescribed antibiotics for the infection, but now, of course, they’ve upset my stomach. I take probiotics every day, so I’m hoping that helps balance things out. Normally, I do intermittent fasting, but for now I’m taking the antibiotics with food. My…
Finally finished the book…
I transferred my saved data and user account over to Tommy’s Switch, though I haven’t had time to play yet. The process was surprisingly easy—Nintendo makes transferring data between Switch consoles pretty simple. On a related note, there’s some buzz that Final Fantasy XIV might be coming to the Nintendo Switch 2. Square Enix and…
Computer woes
I forgot to charge my headphones earlier, so they’re plugged in now while I sip on some coffee at my desk. I’m working from my laptop today because my UPS battery needs to be replaced—it keeps shutting off, which in turn shuts off my computer. I use the UPS as my computer’s surge protector. Since…
Power outages
It’s officially planner season! All the planner companies are rolling out their 2026 editions as if 2025 is ancient history. If you didn’t get organized this year—don’t worry—2026 is coming. Meanwhile, I’m still writing “2024” on things and am supposed to start planning for a year that barely feels real. At this rate, “2030 Planners”…
