therapy and picross

trying to make things better

Lots of stuff going on lately. Personal, interpersonal, political, AAAAAA

Valentine’s day is tomorrow (technically today as of posting). Last vday was me, my ex, my wife, and my wife’s gf (who is now also my ex). This vday, I don’t know what to expect. All three of us are going to build a Mario Piranha Plant LEGO set. It should be chill and nice. I am, of course, hoping for more, but setting my expectations low. It would be an understatement to say I want to be with her again.

Things fell apart because of communication issues and busyness. It was suggested that maybe things could happen again when things calm down, but things just aren’t calming down. It’s frustrating being in love with someone you live with who you can’t be close to. This is the second time it’s happened. This time is more hopeful than last time at least, I think..

Relatedly, I’ve started therapy again. My new therapist is sapphic, trans, polyamorous, and a gamer lol. So far she seems like a really good fit and I’m super excited to keep going. I felt so vulnerable and also kind of relieved afterwards. Having someone to talk to about everything is so so good.

Also relatedly, all three of us are gonna start family therapy for communication issues across the board. I’m hopeful but wary if I’m being honest.

I’ve re-picked up Picross on my 3DS and Switch as a kind of meditation. It’s always been that way for me but I kinda stopped for a bit there.

Because of my increased video game playing, my thumbs have been getting stiff and pained. This is.. pretty bad actually. Debilitating.

Season 12 of the Simpsons is really… really hit or super miss. It’s my personal boundary of when to stop watching actually.

I think the lavender I was overwintering is dead :(
