Found out today I’m up for promotion. This is for a role I’ve been waiting for for 3.5 years. Feels surreal. Happy and excited doesn’t cover it. Still have to interview for the role and get selected but goddamn I think I’m going to get this. Holy shit. I can almost taste it.

I try to stay grounded in reality. I’m staying at a hotel that’s brand new, but is built on what used to be the old hospital. A friend said they wouldn’t have stayed here because it’s probably haunted from the old hospital. Laying in bed in the dark and the bathroom light just turned on by itself 👀

The two hour scalp massage lady on TikTok is getting a lot of heat for recommending people massage their scalps for 2 hours for rapid hair growth but damn if it isn’t working. I’ve only been doing it every other day for 8 days and already my hair has noticeably grown. Shook.

I grew up staunchly conservative. The person who first showed me it was ok to think with an open mind and care for other people has since swung back to the right so incredibly hard. Gutted doesn’t even begin to encapsulate how I feel.

My Mondays always start out with 6+ meetings on my calendar and one by one they slowly start canceling. Started the day with 7 on my calendar. Have attended two, and two have been canceled. I suspect at least one more will be canceled, possibly two.

I suspect I might be able to better handle the current state of life if I ate some lunch. I’m going to take a few more minutes to sit here and debate getting up to make said lunch.

Today I got a letter in the mail from Missouri family support division asking me to prove my children are citizens before they will approve their health insurance. As a taxpayer I want my taxes to pay for healthcare for all children. Horrified at what this means.

I anxiously asked my husband “what do you plan to do tonight?” Worried he’d request watching a movie together. “I was kind of hoping to play COD tonight…” his worry over my disappointment evident in his voice. “PERFECT!” I shouted a little too eagerly. “I was hoping to read tonight…”

I actually cannot tonight. Like my level of cannoting has probably never been seen before. This is a new level of cannot. Previously unseen and unexperienced levels of cannot. Then I remembered I’ve barely eaten this afternoon and can get silly on just 3 of these bad boys. We will try again tomorrow

Watching every other company take hits after rolling back DEI and then deciding to do the same? What

It’s time for my annual shock when I suddenly remember that Missouri requires people to pay tax on personal property. I get to pay yearly tax on both vehicles. This is really some bullshit. Just a few months ago I paid the state close to $3k for tax on my new van, now I get to pay tax on it again 🎉

I am so disappointed in the democrat party. I was pretty far to the right for years, I actually didn’t realize how far right I had drifted until 2016 when Trump was nominated. I did what I had done for a while and wrote in Ron Paul. Growing up I a specific perception of the dems.

What is it called when you sit down to read but are suddenly filled with anxiety over all of the books you’ll never have time to read and so instead of reading you sit and panic until you find yourself doomscrolling. Audiobooks are the only thing that can save me from this loop.

Met my husband at a new Mexican restaurant in our town. Across the restaurant was a group of old men loudly discussing how happy they are with the current state of things and how excited they are about ICE… first of all, rude. Beyond rude. Second, where is the disconnect happening for people?
