yknow if I could win just one giveaway maybe? that would be super cool? ofc that will never happen because the RNG gods absolutely loathe me


also bothered because my friend is automatically assuming that in gonna give her one of my four new stuffed animals when they come in the mail but honestly, I was really hoping to keep them for myself since I really love stuffed animals and they're honestly a big comforting thing to me while I'm trying to cope with being at home in this stupid crowded room. I didn't explicitly tell her I would give her one but she's already like "omg what should I name it" like bruh what if I want to keep it lol. I would feel horrible if I had to turn her down though cause i know she really likes it. idk maybe I'll buy her her own sometime soon.

in speaking of the stuffed animals, I know it's only been 24 hours since I ordered them but I really wish they would come soon, I have to wait a little under two and a half weeks and my stress/anxiety is causing me to be super impatient

can I also mention, I'm kinda nervous about this package coming in because the seller stated that it came w all four plushies but they had four available listed on the item description? like they explicitly said in the seller info that it would be shipped with all four but what, do they have four of each one to send out? they don't offer returns so I'm just really nervous that I paid $40 and they're actually only gonna send one of the four. idk my anxiety is outta control when it comes to money lol.

You shouldn't feel compelled to have to give her something just because she has made an incorrect assumption. It's okay to point out that you bought them for yourself and were not intending on giving any away.

Feeling extremely depressed and anxious. I am dreading tomorrow. I just want to stay home for christmas. my mom says it isn’t fair to the grandkids if they don’t see us, but they saw their other grandparents. plus it is a pandemic, the virus doesn’t care what is fair and not fair to kids. what about your own daughter and her anxiety issues? if we got security or took turns visiting for christmas every other year, or if my sister had her cat still (she passed away three years ago) i’d be a little better about going. but since my mom wants to move eventually no point getting security even if we could afford it. i don’t want to move but i have no choice since i am dependent on them. most of my friends are relatively close where we live now but totally not if we move to where my sister is and i have no car and am too scared to drive. so i’ll never be able to see them again. i want to be here when my friend who is stuck outside the country waiting for citizenship comes back :/. my mom says everything will be fine. well, the minute you think that, something is bound to happen.

i’m really sorry that you’re having a rough time but your feelings are completely valid. you shouldn’t be forced into doing anything that you don’t want to do, especially during a pandemic. i really hope things get better for you and that tomorrow and the days after go by smoothly. i’m always around if you need someone to talk to or a distraction.

I'm having a really hard time, worse than I thought I would...
My Grandfather passed away last month and this being my first Christmas without him... I'm feeling very depressed. Gonna try and do my best to stay in the holiday spirit but so far... It's rough.
My heart to anyone who may be going through the same struggle, whether you've lost someone long ago or are just not able to spend the day same as we have year after year. Merry Christmas to everyone and a happy New Year.

oh no! i’m so sorry for your loss; i can’t imagine how devastated you must feel right now. don’t feel compelled to stay in the holiday spirit, though - you lost someone and it’s perfectly okay to grieve, even during the holidays. sending loads of well wishes and healing thoughts to you and your family.

I normally wouldn't really feel bad about turning someone down over a small detail like this, but I have a great deal of pity for her because she's been through more than I could every comprehend since her mom passed away back in 2017 (thereby losing both of her parents at 16 y.o.). I know it's prob TMI for this kinda issue but idk I just know that when I've been through a lot w school and whatnot I don't like to be turned down like that. it's a tough situation for me.

my dad told me that since the plushies won't be here for a week and a half, I could just not mention it anymore around her and when I get them not make it obvious that I did so. I suppose eventually I'll have to tell her that I intend to keep all four though.

Thank you so much @xara. I appreciate that and the same goes back for you; I can’t imagine how hard things are for you :/. I’ll manage . I just hope my cats and everything will be okay.

I don't really feel well and I can't tell whether or not it's allergies. This is making me paranoid because I had to go shopping 2 days ago. I've also heard my mom and brother don't feel well either and that's just making me even more paranoid. I better not have COVID-19.

so according to my mom my dad did in fact buy me gifts, but it's almost noon and I haven't seen any of them. honestly it's not like I really deserve them anyways (for real).

also gettin really tired of him bossing me around and constantly telling me what to do with my dog

 

[Dim]

I can't sleep because I'm thinking about all the **** that needs to be done before the family comes over tomorrow. Things like washing the sheets, disinfecting the washer and drier, cleaning things, etc. Plus I gotta figure out how to deal with a certain 'habit' of mine when they're staying over here. Then there's scholarships, creating a resume for said scholarships and upcoming jobs. There's just a bunch of things to do, you know?

... **** it, I can't fall asleep anyways. Coffee time.

Off topic but congrats on 12,000 posts lol

I sprained my knee yesterday chasing my dog when he was about to tear up one of my comfy socks (like really comfy) that I got for my birthday. Then I tripped on his paw and fell knee first on the hardwood. I don’t know how I’m not going to get hurt when we have two dogs in February lol... The sprain was “Grade 1” which means I can still put weight on it but it really hurts to bend and it feels weak.

My boyfriend broke up with me on Thanksgiving and yesterday I found out through twitter that he's seeing someone else already. It really hurts.

Also he went to his family's house for Xmas (and has been going to see family and friends multiple times during lockdown) so I'm also just. So angry.

Spoiler: long nightmare, very big trigger warnings

I just woke up from a scary nightmare, and it’s like 5 am in the morning. It started out innocently, I was doing some kind of Latin dance that requires two people with some old classmates at my grandparent‘s house (and even with an old crush that I really fell hard for a few years ago. I apologized to him in my dream about being annoying back then and we just hugged it out. It was weird since I don’t really think about him much anymore). It was when I went upstairs at nighttime is when it turned downhill. In that same house, my favorite artist was staying there in his room, who I often listened to to cope with certain issues (his songs can be quite heavy in lyrics). We were just hanging out in his room when all of a sudden, a jealous and obsessive fan girl was holding a knife and trying to raise it to stab me when the artist I listen to prevented the attack and instead killed her. He was really shocked about it and I actually felt scared. I turned around in the room and looked through the window. There was the old building next to ours showed a bunch of posters plastered across the outside walls with Amazon packages being filled to the brim and were about ready to fall from the broken windows. The walls of the building were stained with blood and a man (who looked like Hisoka from Hunter x Hunter) was smiling weirdly and tried to break into my grandparent’s house. The artist I was with all of a sudden had skin which was turned white as literal paper, long and messy jet-black hair, red lips, and sullen but wild eyes, sort of like a yuurei ghost) told me to run. Apparently, the intruder was already under the house and trying to find a way in. I ran to wake up my sister and warned her to come with me and she quickly woke up and followed. Downstairs, my mom was at the front door, trying to get the piles and piles of Amazon packages delivered inside the house and I kept yelling stop and shut the door. I tried to tell my family someone is trying to do harm to us and is breaking in the house, and my dad asks, “who believes you”? and then I woke up.
