My wife and I just finished celebrating our 5 year anniversary. Each year we write letters to each other and plan to open them at every 5 year increments.

Getting to read the wedding night and 4 years worth of anniversary letters was reaffirming as hell. To hear that I was accepted when exploring and the confidence she saw me building brought me to tears.

I’m sick as a dog and my back is sore from the bed at the inn we stayed in, but I am the happiest I’ve felt in years.

I’ve been having a lot of dysohoria and my labs showed my hormones were critically low, so my doctor just bumped my HRT dose 10x. Turns out my first doc had me on way too low a dose! I was taking 1mg per week, now I’m taking 10mg lol. Should help with my energy levels and stuff going forward. Expecting to have mood swings and stuff this week as my dosage bumps up though!

Crazy. Been living where I am for almost 4 years and I’ve been told I may get deported because my current company made a mistake on my contract. I hate it here but it’s better than where I’m from in many ways, and I was trying to get citizenship so I could move somewhere else. If they deport me I don’t really know what I’m going to do or where my life will be headed.

My friends who play games with me were busy all weekend, so I spent the weekend alone feeling really isolated and sad. It’s almost 6am and I haven’t slept.

I go home for a month next week and the one reason I planned to go back this year fell through, I have no plans, my accommodation for the trip has been fucked up and now I have deportation looming over me. I would cancel the trip if not for the fact that it was €1000 for the ticket.

I’m so sick of the constant shit. I had surgery planned in Nov but I’ll probably end up canceling it.

I a positive note, the recent depression treatment seems to have helped a bit.

D’awwwh! At biofam-place there was a Goosie (Lucy, the calico) who was sweet and friendly. Then a Poofy and a Sugar appeared and she started tasting the rainbow (-> Skittles -> skittish) all’ the time v.v For some reason she liked them but not muchly me. The other two loved me, though :3 I guess something broke in poor Goosie’s grey-matter :-\

Remembered we friended on Discord; can send cat pics >:P

It has been a week, I guess? It was 50 degrees and comfy out like, days ago, and now it’s fuckin 85 and I’m sweaty and I hate it.

Micro center wasn’t closed this weekend (why did a tech store need to close for a religious holiday???) So I have a microphone now to curse ears with my voice if Im not-anxious enough to actually plug the thing in.

Much procrastination has been accomplished. Got a pile of things in my fridge to cut up and either eat or vacuum seal before they go bad, a pile of dishes to wash, and a pile of crap I forgot to do at work last week due to anxiety and not asking questions about how to do my job 🤯

Roughly 10 pounds of (cored) jalapeños in a bowl, 3 Napa cabbages, and a giant chunk of ginger root. Oh and a 1 gallon jug of Sambal Oelek (Thai chili pepper paste), a quart jar of Sauerkraut, and about 10 bratwurst.

GeoGuessr is fun :3 if I can recognize the language on a sign I can usually get within a couple hundred miles of the location, or terrain if it’s in the US
