I'm sorry to hear that, opal.

Forget me. I am wondering how Opal is doing.

I have been feeding the cat at the Hoarder Lady's apartment for about a week now. It's so bad that, before I go there, I spray myself with Off! and then roll up my pants legs so they don't touch the floor when I walk in. It's so gross and such a downer that I need time to decompress afterward! And a shower. She will be home in a few days and I'm considering talking to her about it. I've been trying to see if I can find resources for some professional help, in case she wants it.

Today the low feelings are still lingering. It's like her apartment is filled with sadness and it clings to me like perfume after I leave.

Coping. Sad. Curled up with my dog a lot. Relying on my friends. Wondering how to tell my family.

Thanks for thinking of me, SG.

Yes, so sorry to read about your breakup, Opalescent. It is nice to have an animal to help get through it, they are non-judgmental furry little miracle workers!

Places can have an energy about them that can have an effect on people in them. I know I feel sad when I go to certain places for no real reason. I, however, go looking for those places, happy or sad. Little reminders that life lingers on, long after it's gone.

As for how I'm doing? I'm doing...meh today. Not good, not bad. Not happy, not sad. Just trying to figure some stuff out in my life and how to make things line up right. I know it time it'll happen on it's own, but in this case it needs a little nudging.

I'm wicked open-minded and expansive ATM. Went to a memorial benefit for a friend's brother and some girl started grabbing my boobs and calling me a lesbian. Won 3 home-made quilts (out of a possibility of 6). So I actually made money on this. Should I feel bad? I think not. Whootah.

Can anyone top this? I dare you.

Congrats on the quilt raffle wins.

Boobie groping at a memorial benefit? Not so sure that deserves congratulations.

Feeling content. Runic Wolf and I have some sexy time this morning, then ate a yummy breakfast and are now cuddled up on the couch with our kitty (Runic Wolf is asleep with his head on my shoulder.)
