    I seriously am tempted to go to the store to buy a case of hard cider. This is more intense than usual.

    I am going to Starbucks and buying a mocha instead.

    That's great. Often a caffeine hit will get me back on line. Vitamin D really helped with my depressive episodes. Are you getting this Vitamin?

    Get some Martinellis instead. Zero alcohol and similar flavor.

    After several hours of sleep, now I want to drink something strong. Good thing the bars are closed nearby.

    The unknown abyss seems welcoming to me. I will think about it. For now, I will take some NyQuil and knock myself out.

    The unknown abyss only seems welcoming, but we do not know that is true.

    It sounds like you are mostly interested in sleeping right now, not actually dying. Booze helps with sleeping, yes, but you have (wisely) removed that option for yourself. But maybe you can just put your focus on sleeping and things that make you very tired so you can get there and get lots and lots of sleep right now.

    Sleep is a great relief from hardship. It is a useful goal to focus on. Focus on sleep instead of death.

    Rodafina has great advice! I always look forward to January.

    I need my autonomy, and I need to not be around people who ridicule me for taking my own autonomy seriously. I do not need to be around people who throw me under the bus on a regular basis. I do not need to be around people who designate my role as the family retard.

    Sounds like their classic lack of understanding over some basic tenets of autism.

    Yeah, you don't need that. None of us do.

    The only time I feel even remotely content these days is when I am sleeping and in the world of dreams.

    Music videos on YouTube is a rabbit hole for me. Especially now that YouTube realizes I love ‘80s and ‘90s music.

    So a friend got me Titanic on 4K for Christmas. I should have a double feature of that and The Sixth Sense, because “icy dead people”.

    I am a junkie for my smartphone and for social media. I need to cut that crap out of my life. It is a waste of time.

    Study the security implications of using cellphones and you may never do so again. ;)

    Fry those social media apps right away, I'd say. Though, also maybe consider putting on one of those apps that's entirely about helping you manage your screen time and whatnot? Though I dont know if iPhones have something like that, if that's what you have.

    This is what I am about to start watching.

    Oh dear! I think that's the sort of movie that would give me nightmares! :smilecat:

    @MildredHubble It was very high camp and I found it hilarious. It is a horror movie, however.
    MildredHubble

    @Metalhead sounds like you enjoyed it! Sometimes I can cope with horror movies, particularly if they aren't too gorey and they are funny. But it's a flip of a coin as to whether I will be freaked out by the horror. But I find the Alien movies relaxing lol! Probably because they hint at violence more than show it :-)

    I wonder if I can distill a non alcoholic absinthe. Maybe I should just stick to Mountain Dew, which is another green drink.

    Distill? Won't that make hard liquor?

    To create a non-alcoholic Absinthe, I would personally make a concentrated simple syrup of anise and fennel seed. Then I would pour a little bit over kombucha or seltzer. And then add a splash of bitters.

    I wish I could curl up under a warm blanket with a hot cup of black coffee. Well, that's exactly what I will do when I get home from work today.

    That's how I start the day now. But I have to leave the blanket behind. One outta two ain't bad! :p

    I just watched Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away and My Neighbor Totoro today. All very different but great movies.

    I feel like ordering orange chicken for lunch today. Who wants to go to the local teriyaki place with me?

    Reminds me of Panda Express...thought their Orange Chicken was rather good....before my reflux really flared up.

    We just got a Panda Express here. It's pretty popular. I just made a ton of Asian for my guest, then we did Thai and Chinese for our nite's out. My mom came and was actually in a great mood.

    Every so often Raley's in Yreka will have boneless Chinese style chicken. I tried the General Tso seasoned chicken once and it was pretty good. The Raley's stores in Sacramento have a dedicated Chinese hot food area with stuff like chow mein and jalapeno seasoned pork. Yum.
