  • My new job is awesome, and there's a plant boss in New Models now curious about something I am inventing, so perhaps in a few years it might get more awesome.
    Sorry I haven't been posting tons lately--I like all you all; just very busy with some things I need to do!

    Hey. You are successful. WHY are you apologizing? Own it.
    I started a job today & I like this one better.

    What? Is this another friggen success story? Yay.

    @Aspychata you can say that, I guess--I went in for orientation at a factory & the trainer suggested at the end of the day I check out applying for IT instead of production or welding. Now I like that idea but I would rather "earn my stripes" on the assembly-line.THEN I can go up and see about something more.
    I hope I can apply for an apartment next and go get a place to live.
    I'm half excited & half grateful about being able to go to work at an actually adequate job, not this minimum-wage nonsense where I can't live alone or start prepping for a family.
    Taking a vacation from blue light: dark midnight, radio dial lamp & a plain candle. I love the dark like this--it does not hurt to look at; it looks the way quiet feels.
    I hope I can get a job & then watch the bottom fall out of the housing market. A home is where hearth & family are--It's not capital investments; it's a human right.

    (If you are an investor & find this post offensive--Good.)
    Work of 3 weeks setback, depressive state returning. Deep distrust, isolation. Time to work on changing that.

    I appreciate your attitude. Recognize the hardship, but keep moving forward. Keep your eyes on the horizon where there is definitely hope for change.
    Finally. Someone bought a very expensive item from me but he actually paid me this time unlike the other guy. Thank goodness.

    It was a $600 record player. I have to crate it & ship it but at least it's money.
    James McMurtry wore a dress to protest Florida's drag laws. He's a rough, tough country music singer. Would that mean he is 'the Old Rugged Cross(dresser)?' The world wonders!

    How do kilts feature in these drag bans?

    I do wonder a little if it makes a difference. I could put on a dress right now, but I think it would just upset people more than it would help anything. I don't have the legs for it. ;)

    Maybe upsetting a few people is the point. Whatever it was, I thought it interesting because country music in the 1920s and '30s had elements of protest music in it. This is a bit of a throwback to country's roots, in that sense, but in a lot of other senses a very 21st-century concern.
    Attacking at trans people is going to hurt a lot of autistics.
    Went to work on the car. Washed it, went to turn the water hose off, & by the time I got back a bird had crapped right in the middle of what I washed. They never fly low enough to spray them with the water hose--but I don't want to scare them in case one of them has the runs.
    My car broke down -- I tried fixing it & made it worse. So I've been walking everywhere. Pet ALL the dogs. Meet ALL the neighbors. See ALL the birds and the blue sky & count the bullfrog tadpoles in the creek. I should let it break down more often.
