Today’s Feelings

  • stressed right the fuck out

Notes

  • my pc is acting like it’s trying to die, it’s telling me Windows 10 needs to update but it keeps failing to update that
    • I need a computer right now, no getting around that – period
  • got some grocery shopping done today
    • killed my back and shoulder in the process
      • can’t wait for the day when I can bring someone with me to help me with the lifting again
        • pisses me off that my parents go together every week now when they used to go once a month and now I have to justify to them my shopping every other week
  • the state of Maine is opening the state parks that have hiking trails and fishing and Dad is trying to convince me that I shouldn’t take the boys to any of those parks
    • he backed off when I reminded him of the fishing
    • yeah… we can go “hiking” on his property, but not fishing
    • and he’s not happy that this idea is coming from the med clinic staff
    • he’s also suddenly trying to push the idea on me that I should continue to just do web cam appointments with them from now on even after this is all over and I reminded him that it’s nice to be able to get out of the house
      • I know I’m not imagining all this, I know he is trying to completely isolate me for whatever reason – it has gotten to the point that the staff has picked up on it and they’re now telling me he can’t legally do this and that I need to start planning to move out
        • on average, my family has 2 appointments a week with these people
        • you can’t run your mouth like that, even in another room, and expect to not be overheard
          • I’m wondering if this is why as of late my parents have begun to ramp up their questioning about who is calling me and why because it’s seldom personal calls that I get – just the schools, the hospitals, and the clinics
            • I need to get the fuck away from here and the policing and paranoia
              • so tired of constantly hearing how unsafe and untrustworthy and awful the world and everyone is
                • tired of being subhuman
  • watched Shawshank Redemption for the first time with Golden Knight
    • was a really good movie
  • I am beyond capacity for this stay home shit
    • not the lack of social, because well… it’s really no different than what my life has been since my marriage but because of my parents and their need to control everything
    • and it’s going to be a long, exhausting battle to regain what little bit of privacy and independence I had as this shit lifts
      • I shouldn’t need to fight this fight

      • haven’t been invited to those since getting married
      • Golden Knight doesn’t understand the family taboo of asking to join or how it’s the same as inviting yourself
        • he mentioned that it’s hard breaking into a new social circle but this isn’t a new one – it’s an old one that left you behind
  • I wish I had other people to talk to and chill with besides just Golden Knight
    • the radio silence is killing me
