Month: December 2023

I got my Xbox 360 in the mail, and I will say they could have cleaned it up better, especially the controller. But I’m glad to have it, just gotta make sure it works. I hope they set everything back to factory because it would be really annoying if not.

Omg mom made chocolate eclair for dessert today. I ate the leftover bit of my piece a little while ago. It’s so tasty. 🤤

I kind of wish for snow but I don’t at the same time. It’s beautiful but it inconveniences me.

I don’t even know what I’m on about. I should go to sleep now 😅

Good night!



I did it, I bit the bullet and ordered the Xbox 360 with the Jasper motherboard. It was about 185 usd. Oh lawd what have I done lol. The rest of this month is going to be tight af.

I like “retro” (hate to call them that because it makes me feel old) consoles because they have all the best games. In my humble opinion of course…I have always been a Nintendo & Sega person and that’s why I never had an Xbox.

Pray that I steer clear of the Red Ring of Death. ☠️

 

On another note, I had an appointment with my doctor and not only did I lose another pound, but my diabetes is now controlled! My a1c was 6.7 and anything under 7 is considered controlled. It was something like 7.4 last time, so that’s drastic! She’s turned in all the stuff to Frye’s weight loss center and I suppose it will be submitted to Medicaid again to see if they will approve my surgery. Send good vibes!

edit: bro someone just blew an air horn outside. Scared me. It’s the wee hours of the morning. Some weird people living around here…




This shirt makes me happy 😆 As an aside, I have way too many Monty Python tees.



To my surprise, I actually got approved to make the fanlisting for markers! https://silent.am/markers/

My fanlisting focuses on the use of markers in art, since I am an artist…but anyone who likes any kind of markers for any purpose is more than welcome to join!

god it’s cold in here. I don’t use heat in the winter because I’m always hot (and it’s more inexpensive haha)…but even I get cold 🥶 I need a space heater.




I’m getting plenty of emails about adopting my fanlistings! That makes me happy in my soul, because I really don’t want to have to close them. Especially the animal fls. I think I’ve given away 9 so far.

I was looking for gaming stores I hadn’t been to and found one. My peer support said “Looks like a front for a meth operation.” but she says that about every place that looks a little skeezy or run down haha. I think she might have been right in this case, however. The owner took a phone call and said “Is this about gaming or…other stuff”. Well, half the county is on meth, someone has to be supplying it. I found Silent Hill 4: The Room O_O Expensive as fuck but you bet your ass I bought it. I’ve never played it. They had some rare games, I was really surprised. I’m left wondering how they got a hold of them in the first place…hmmm.



A month or so ago, my mom got her groceries before she came over and put them in my fridge. We went out, and I came back to the most disgusting smell. It was all over my house. My house smelled like meat. GROSS meat. I asked wtf it was and she said it must be the meat she bought. In any case I hustled that meat out of my house and asked that she never bring it in here again. The smell permeates EVERYTHING. And it’s so hard to get rid of. I sprayed and sprayed air freshener and B&BW room scent and finally I couldn’t smell it anymore. It was in the kitchen, the hallway and the living room, everywhere the door wasn’t shut.

She brought it back in here today! I had a terrible time getting rid of it again. Whatever it is, I don’t know how they eat it if it smells that way.

Yes, this is all I have to write about. I’m bored. XD

Oh I got dad’s Christmas present just now. It’s a pair of “lounge pants” to lie around in. They’re a light tie-dye with a pattern of the Pink Floyd “Dark Side of the Moon” prism over that. We both love Floyd so I thought it was a fitting gift. I already got mom’s and gave it to her so she’d have a chance to actually wear it this year. It’s not a warm weather shirt. It’s a burnt orange color which looks really nice on her. We both look better in earthen colors than anything else.

Oscar is filthy and needs a bath so badly. I’ve been told not to bathe cats, that they are “self cleaning”…well, he’s doing a crap job of cleaning himself. He is greasy (mostly down his back) and little bits of his hair are matting. This is a very recent thing. I just haven’t had a chance to bathe him yet. I think even cats need a bath every couple of years. My peer support told me she’d help me do it. My previous cat had the same issue with his back. I had him professionally bathed and sheared. Oscar can’t handle being groomed anymore, he just freaks out and overheats. One groomer actually had to stop in the middle of shearing him because she was scared he’d have a heart attack, which is a real concern because he has a heart murmur, and we always warn groomers about it. I warn everyone about it, so they won’t try to be an ass and scare him or whatever. He’s my baby. ;_;
