Practicing being the subject which typically involves a blunt in my hand ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

We all have safety blankets

My last post was 5 years ago. I logged in with intentions of logging back out quite quickly, however, it didn’t go as planned. All I wanted to do was reset my password because I like to keep it current for memory’s sake.

Frequent talk of my past has happened recently, specifically about my life during the days of my avid tumbling, online relationships, and the inner workings of my emotional being.

I updated my “avatar” as they call it now, my description, and the theme. Which by the way, the theme situation is bogus now, but then I reminded myself that I truthfully don’t care about the appearance of it how I used to. It’s wild how easily we can be triggered back into an old frame of mind.

I don’t really know why I’m here except that I felt a strong urge to blog for myself. I used to spend so much more time alone, reflecting and putting it into my tumblr or journal. Time alone has been a rare commodity since marrying in 2015 and starting a brick-and-mortar business in 2020.
