I caught myself in an old defense mechanism loop and was able to stop, breath, sit with the discomfort and own that motherfucking trauma response for what it is, then dismiss it and carry on with my day. So, like a very proud ten.
I think I’m up to a 6. Gonna make a trip to the sawmill today to pick up some walnut and maybe some oak depending on how I’m feeling.
10, watched a dope ass movie with my partner and our cats and did some incredibly pure blow and I need to sleep GOOD NIGHT LOVE YOU
You can sleep after doing blow? How? Haha
Tylenol 3/codeine back in my day lol
7.5
Terrible night’s sleep but I’ve had a couple of leads on work (one is almost in the bag) and I just did a big walk in the sunshine and I’m not in pain.
Pretty badass even if I’m gonna go pass out very soon.

Definitely a 7-8 today. In my humanities course this quarter we did a thing with chopsticks since it’s a Japanese culture and traditions course and I somehow managed to pick up 43 raw black eyed peas and transfer them over to a plate in a minute. 50% luck, 50% skill, and 100% fluke. Balanced that out by being a bit clumsier throughout the rest of the day.

Maybe 6. Im back to college and learning precalc after being out of school for like 10+ years. A lot of relearning old stuff and learning new stuff at the same time.
It makes me anxious honestly.
I can imagine, but you can do it! :)
8 had a banger goth makeup for the first time
Rad! Did you do your own goth makeup?
Yup, with eyeliner and a bit of eye shadow
This particular day I feel like a fistfight between me and Stephen Hawking would be too close to call.
ROFL. You can’t win them all champ. Keep going though. Greatness is achieved when you push further than what others are willing to do.
Yes, I am definitely on that scale.
Where would you place your ‘badassary’ on the scale today?
Too Low to brag, high enough to know that, I think that’s a perfect 5
1 i been fee- actually nvm i just beat the piss out of a couple monsters in morrowind using my bare fists. Solid 4 cus of that lol
Hahaha. Putting yourself in another world (and one where you’re stronger or have special abilities,) is a nice way to escape the worries of the day.
Have you tried beating up some monsters with a spoon yet? haha
I rescued an injured bird (a collared dove) with a broken wing and took him to a bird sanctuary about 40 miles away. So 10, clearly.
Hell yeah brother! Taking care of animals is super badass!
3, maybe a 3.5.
I was reasonably productive today, but still have a lot to get done and I am procrastinating.
Take it or leave it insight: I have learned that procrastination can be chalked up to two things. 1. You don’t know where to start on said thing and perhaps feel overwhelmed by it. 2. You don’t know how to break down the objective into more manageable steps. And so you put it off ‘until you feel like you have a clue.’
An old saying that strongly applies here. “How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.”
I feel generally on par with a green bell pepper.
