journal entry #25...3/18/22
I haven't written in a little bit. There's been a little bit going on but not much. Yesterday, in group therapy, I was talking about my dad and how I don't know if we love each other anymore and how I've been thinking about it recently. There's this one therapist, Strawberry's therapist, who is kind of a really bad therapist. I was talking about how I look for father figures in any older man, like my coworkers at the pizza place. Last week, I talked about how I can't hold a crush really and I stop liking people once they like me. So this therapist was like, "Maybe sex is a factor that differs between these relationships? Like you don't desire a sexual relationship with these older father figures but you do with boys your age?" And I was just confused (also it's not true). It was out of pocket to say that to me in front of the whole group. Strawberry stepped in and said that's not what I was saying. I love her for that. I talked to my therapist (let's call her Ms. E) about what she said to me and she said that it wasn't in line of her to say that. So at least Ms. E agreed. I just don't know why Strawberry's therapist said that.
I met with Apple on Sunday and we had a really good time. She told me she smokes regularly and that really surprised me. She would never smoke with me when we were best friends. But we went to Plato's Closet and got coffee. She also did my hair with her dyson air wrap. It looked so good! I'll attach a picture down below.
I've been working a lot lately and I think it's good for me? I've been very tired as well though. It's fine though, I'll live. At work on Wednesday, I feel behind with all my work. I got help from the stylists which I appreciated a lot. I've gotten quite a few tips, too! I got a $10 tip yesterday.
I've been hanging out with Strawberry a little bit less because I've been working and I think it's been good for our relationship because I'm finding her less irritating now. Although I still fucking hate her ex boyfriend that she still talks to. I wish she wouldn't sabotage herself so much. I just want the best for her, but she doesn't seem to want it for herself.
I'm going to an art hotel in Wisconsin on Sunday, if I get off work that day. But I'll go anyway even if I can't get off. I'm really excited to go with my sister and mom. My brother is going to Cabo and then the Bahamas. I'm really jealous because he has rich friends. I used to too, but not that rich.
Here's a picture of my hair from Sunday! I'm a little apprehensive about showing myself, even if my face is blurred out. I don't want anyone to recognize me, even if it's very unlikely.
