I've been slowly sinking for about 2 weeks.
I've been slowly sinking for about 2 weeks. Today I slept until 4 and now I'm back in bed. Hello, depression. Let's do this so I can move past you for a bit.

In case anyone missed Nom...
In case anyone missed Nom... He wanted attention tonight. He's such a good boy.

We were awoken at 5 this morning by a giant limb...
We were awoken at 5 this morning by a giant limb (about 7 inches in diameter, I'm guesstimating 30 feet long, plus branches) falling on the house. I didn't sleep well after that and woke up with a tension headache. Shaun was able to cut the limb into pieces and remove it from the roof with minimal damage, thank goodness. But I'm getting a late start on getting anything done because I've felt so crappy. I had trouble getting back to sleep after the blast of adrenaline I got when it sounded like the house was coming down. I'm off to feed my animals. I'm shocked that I don't hear tantrums since it's so late in the day.

Yesterday I felt pretty good and even went walking.
Yesterday I felt pretty good and even went walking. I saw a groundhog and a turtle! I came home and watched my lectures and felt good about that.
Today I didn't get anything done. I guess that's a lie - I napped. We took Adrian (cat) to the vet. She's missing her top fangs and we just wanted to make sure she is ok (she is). There were no lectures posted, so it's not like I slacked terribly on school, but I could have done more homework or something and I didn't.
I feel like I am on an emotional roller coaster. I can't wait to be finished with school. The amount of anxiety it causes me is exhausting by itself, but this pandemic type of anxiety is next-level. Also, I am REALLY HOPING that JSU keeps classes online for the fall semester. I do not feel willing or able to go into a public space 2 or 3 times / week. That feels like the wrong thing to do and I don't want to do it.
Anyway. I hope you all are wearing masks and social distancing and being safe. Well, I know from posts that a lot of you aren't, but I hope none of your loved ones die because of it. Be well!
Ok, so I don't enjoy being touched as a general rule.
Ok, so I don't enjoy being touched as a general rule. It's usually physically pretty uncomfortable. I super hate being caressed or rubbed or massaged. Animals have the right idea; snuggling on or next to me without a lot of movement is great.
Scar just laid down with me and put a paw on my hand. I told Shaun it felt glowy and he didn't know what I meant. It doesn't tickle. It's not goosebumps. It's warm and really pleasant and when this happens I don't want to move because that'll ruin it. I could almost say my skin is horny or happy. I don't know how else to describe it, but it's a feeling I've gotten on and off throughout my life and I guess I never really tried to verbalize it before. I get this feeling from various situations; it's not exclusive to animals or even living things. Anyone know what I'm talking about? Shaun sure doesn't.
