It’s been more than a week since my last post. I’ll try to update you as concisely as possible with the happs. Work: I’m officially as of yesterday on vacation from Company H. They’re still open but I don’t give a fuck as I won’t be there. Adoption: We had our work days at the… Continue reading Updates…
I haven’t forgotten about you WordPress honestly. I’d like to say I’ve been busy but I’ll save that for after next week. Mostly, I’ve been trying to physically and mentally recover from whatever the fuck crawled up into my sinuses and decided to make me sound like a 65 year old smoker whenever I laugh… Continue reading Sick, work, and adoption…
So recently I found out that Yuichiro joined a new band after his previous band was well disbanded. When he came in to Company H on Wednesday, I asked him about his new band with his former bassist. Apparently, I had been mistaken and his bassist is in two bands (like practically everyone is here)… Continue reading On being sick…
Perhaps you remember my last post where my mental health deteriorated to the point that I couldn’t find my keys which were in my bag the whole time. Yesterday was another for the books. Some point between changing my clothes in the bathroom and walking into the office. I lost my phone. Unfortunately, I had… Continue reading “3…2…1…fun!”
I wasn’t planning on blogging right this minute but I have mad anxiety, and I need to let it out somewhere. (Note: I updated the Pseudonyms tab. My friends aren’t evil, but just I’m running out of “Sailor Moon” characters.) This week was another “Don’t Forget to Breathe” week. So much so that I can’t… Continue reading People all around me, karaoke, and Eiru…
Hello everyone! WordPress sent me a notification that I’ve received 200 followers. Holy shit! That’s pretty damn amazing is all I can say. From the bottom of my heart…thank you. What better way to celebrate than to offer those new followers a quick recap. If you’re new to this blog here’s a quick summary. For… Continue reading 200! A recap…
Hello! It’s that time again! It’s time for Mamoru’s quarterly (yearly? bi-yearly? tri-yearly) A-DIVORCE-IS-EASIER-THAN-ACTUALLY-TALKING-ABOUT-OR-TRYING-TO-SOLVE-ANY-PROBLEMS talk. Insert mega exhausted eye roll here. We actually had a nice fun Golden Week until I said I was exhausted because his idea of travel and my idea of travel are very different. This however is not new information to… Continue reading Mamoru, Small Lady, Eiru, Naru, Artemis, and Motoki…
Today was one for the fucking books. This morning started with a panic attack over my lost Fitbit. Apparently I had thrown it in the pile with the clothes to wash by accident, and I didn’t realize it until 6:30AM when I jolted awake and I wasn’t wearing it. My panic attack woke Mamoru up… Continue reading Monday…Monday…
Despite his earlier shitty behavior Mamoru was being really sweet yesterday. He said I was beautiful like the azaleas we rode past, and he bought me a strawberry tart from our local bakery even though I said I didn’t want anything (but those strawberry tarts are my favorite). Perhaps it was an attempt at atonement. … Continue reading “I just take it day by day…”
Yesterday was rough. Rough. Another adoption closed on the online NPO. Another child we applied to adopt given to another couple and not us. Meanwhile, literally everywhere I was was swarmed with families. You’d think it was a holiday but no. A plain old Monday. I saw a mama on her bicycle. One child in… Continue reading Babies, Japanese, and friendship…
