What's Bothering You?

I'm hoping I get this job tomorrow. I have an interview. I applied for over ten jobs at this point and I haven't gotten a call back for a single one. I know the job market right now is pretty terrible, plus kids are out of school and they're probably looking for jobs, so this is bad timing all in all.

I just wish I could find a job because I need a paycheck and I'm feeling pretty worthless having not worked in over two weeks. It's also making me feel like I should've just sucked it up like an adult at my old job. If I don't get this job tomorrow, I don't know how long it will take to even land another interview, let alone get hired afterwards! This particular interview was automatically scheduled because I met requirements. It doesn't mean anything because nobody actually reached out to me.
 
talking to a coworker that has a son with suspected autism made me cringe today. Maybe it's the way I perceived her comments or a bit of broken English, but it comes off like they want their son to fit the norms. I've also heard a bit of ablelism from the father as well. Like no, you can't and don't have to change your son, he is fine like the way he is 🫤
 
I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope their son will be able to accept himself as he is.

I'm autistic like him and sometimes I feel like I'm dealing with this ableism and fitting in to the norms and all that too, but I can barely tell because they say "it's for your own good." So then I feel like an inferior person because of my differences and stuff. 🙁

It happens pretty often; I know because I've brought this up a few times here before.
 
literally no jobs anywhere 🙃 I tried so much.
I was gonna go to one area, and despite already telling my mum a day before which area I was planning to go, I told her again today and she said theres literally nothing there.
Literally don't know what else I can do. I do plan on trevlling to a specific book publishing company, but was hoping to find more elsewhere as I travelled ;_:

Like the only things Ive seen is people looking for teachers, and managers. (And cafe staff but again, I can't mentally deal with it anymore.)
 
just not feeling very mentally sound this morning, I'm not sure why 😔


also suspecting that drinking coffee is affecting my ability to sleep, no matter what time of day I drink it, so I might have to give it up for a little while. dunno why I thought it was a good idea anyway, it's really only bc I like iced mocha.
 
nice time to have no AC in my car 🫠 don't worry though, it's in the shop today and I'm tempted to tell them I'm not taking it home til the AC works. just hoping they don't charge me an arm and a leg.
update on this, they did in fact want to charge me an arm and a leg, both arms actually. thankfully I know what the issue is now, but the cost of having it fixed in the shop is horrifying for someone like me, working part-time. I just said screw it, I'll buy a new compressor myself and have my dad put it in. but that basically means that I'll be without AC for probably another week at least.

it coincides perfectly with this heat wave. the heat is making me feel sleepy and really exhausted and the harsh sun is messing with my psoriasis. thank goodness I have the day off tomorrow, ugh. I am a tired buggy.

I spilled my coffee all down myself for a third time this week. Not once, not twice but 3 different times. I also barfed all down myself again while driving. Idk what is wrong with me but hopefully it's just stress. I'm on the list for a family doctor so hopefully they will contact me soon. My dad gets so enraged when I spill my drink too. Why ya gotta be like that father, just chill out. He was like "there's something wrong with your brain, just like mine". Oh great pep talk.
 
It bothers me how exclusive I am now and I feel like I just need this for my sanity.

I wish I could give you guys the same energy I want to. I wish I could do friendships right.

I forgot to tell my psychologist about my anxiety over my online presence.

I wish I could really like myself again.

Also, I dunno, I watched a certain online cartoon because I hadn’t seen that new episode in the last couple weeks and that line about how he looked up and didn’t realise how low the other guy thought of him, wow that hit close to home.

Edit: also I miss how I used to feel for art and I wish the boy had much more
 
My cousin is autistic and loves birthdays. He's always reminding me of my birthday coming up.

...I kinda feel terrible because I'm not going to be home for a few days. It means I won't see him on my birthday.

So I want to give him a gift. I realize the backwards nature in that. (searching a gift for someone else on my own birthday) but I think it would be soothing. Maybe I'll get him a new video game. Or I'll take him to lunch before I leave.

He's actually been on my mind more than I would like to admit. I think I've grown a soft spot for him and the sudden guilt is starting to hit me.

I guess I can update this now. Took him out for some ice cream today. It was quite nice. There's a gas station/fast food stop 10 minutes from us.

We sat inside and I got myself some cheese curds and fries for only $6.00. They also sell 99 cent ice creams.

We had fun. Will definitely have to do it more often.
 
I hate people. 😐

My partner likes when I crossdress, so I did that for our date tonight. Result? I was out the house less than 3 minutes before someone wolf-whistled from their car. Like what the hell dude. Is this what women have to put up with?
 
Earlier today, my mom told an embarrassing story that happened to me to our friend. It's been 10 years now. The story's way too much information to tell here on the forums, despite me telling her not to tell it, but she told it anyway, and she even said that she told her story to same friend, which also was too embarrassing and it's way too much information, it happened to her when she was 11, and she also said that, "I don't understand that it's okay to laugh it off because I'm not old enough." I'm only 23, but she was just saying that because I'm not older compared to my mom and our older friends.

Also, my mom thinks Juneteenth is woke. :c
