Gift card guilt.

First, you did nothing wrong. Second, they probably won't remember. It'll be fine, no need for a disguise.

I'll buy that I did nothing wrong! Appreciate the validation there. But oh boy, the transaction ordeal was one they'll remember for a while. At least they did the day I came back.

lol...been there Al.
I was in a USA airport starving from a crappy 12 hour flight and tried to buy a bag of chips and was short a nickle and he wouldn't take a Canadian nickle. I ate the *******fucking things in front of him! A customer paid for them for me..nice people are out there.
Sorry we highjacked your post.

Nah, I'm enjoying the stories! It's just that social anxiety heightens my sensitivity to the idea of being one of "those" customers on a ****fuck-customers blog. The team there was helpful and nice; I merely hate drawing this out. And I admire your bold public chip eating.

I understand the importance the resurrection story holds in your particular religion.

Sure did. Water to wine, guy was great at parties when you got Him away from the PlayStation and muddy stick.

Dogs do it.

Give 'em lil black jackets and suddenly I'm seeing the T-Birds from Grease.

I knew birds were up to no good. Probably behind all the anti-cat rhetoric in the world.

Lacking motivation!

There's much to be said about the stability of a schedule! Or the prompt/nudge/challenge from a stranger from the internet. Start with the list, maybe? Those are nice. Numbering or listing things feels good to me. Feels even better to cross it off.

What's easiest or fastest to do? You could fold half the laundry mountain, or a particular section of it. Then flatten maybe five boxes. Do those two things and reward yourself with a movie as a break.

(But I'm all talk because I still need to clean out my desk drawers)

I wish people would stop looking at me.

I hate it too. The feeling of even one pair of eyes on you is too powerful, let alone a classroom or a world full of them. I remember walking into a math class in high school and getting a lot of stares. My anxiety said "they're staring because you're in the wrong room." Nope, people just react to stimulus.

Humans are always looking somewhere. Maybe straight ahead, and you pass their path. Maybe at their favorite color, and you're wearing a dark green hoodie. Maybe at a sound or vibration, and you just tripped over the sidewalk. With anxiety, that's going to stick with you for a little while. But probably not with the witness. And even if it does, you probably won't see them again. They're already out of your life.

Actually... if you can't brush them aside or put them in the background? Humanize them. They've cried (maybe in public), farted in class, or worn their shirt backwards or inside out. They can't judge you in good conscience.

Glad I could be of some use! I figured the little tree might speak to your nature interest ๐Ÿ˜€

Eh, when I was 13-14 or so, I used to be super facetious (and yet totally serious) regarding my Anti-Twilight phase. The series was super popular, I didn't like how the zealous fans acted. Naturally I posted stuff about Team Tyler's Van and became very fixated on weird things like the "I made Charlie pancakes" / "he scoffed into his cereal bowl" bit. Once got an "A" from a paper on how Christopher Moore's vampires are more true to the originals than Meyer's.

And you know what. I was a weirdo, but I made some good points. And Jesus Christ absolutely has a Playstation 7. Also, I need to borrow his AV cables.

And I am absolutely relieved to know from this post, that when I get pains in my abdomen, I probably just need a good poo.

Also, is it true that Jesus can be stabbed during a sword fight and be ok due to the fact that he can only die if he gets his head chopped off?

Where are you getting this information? Getting his head chopped off didn't even kill Jefferson in OUAT. If he can get his head fused back on, so can our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

It's surprising how elusive the specific "smiley space" aesthetic is!

I noticed Earth and Jupiter are your favorite planets, so I checked "jupiter smiley face" and "planet earth smiley face aesthetic." They might not be your style but these made me smile (rhyme initially averted, but inevitable) --
