Haven't settled on a kickass lamp for my desk yet, but I did receive a color-changing smartbulb and I've got it installed in a basic lamp I found for like $5 and
...I dunno, colored light makes me happy. My room is red right now and I love it.

I need a hug. I realised this on the very packed bus this morning. I need some consensual physical touch from someone I know. Mum and I don't hug so I haven't had a hug for two months. God my life is sad.
Also consensual looks wrong thanks to sensual being part of it. I don't need that type of touch (though, yeah) just a hug would do!

I would like a hug as well
Really. I have not had a hug for years or someone to talk to
after today at work I just wanted a hug or to crawl into the dumpster and wait till it took me away

A loooooong hug
I was at the cybergothy alt place last night Ange, you have to come up and join us there! Then you will get many hugs, and I can introduce you to my friends with the best hair
I went to an archery shop. They're focused on compound bows, which are awesome, but I'm interested in a recurve. I was a little bummed out, but polite with the owner and talked to him for a few minutes.
Eventually, he was working on a guy's compound bow, he says well, there's a shop focused on that in Larksville.
But you're here, and so is my brother, and he has a recurve.
And then I talked to the brother for about an hour. I was very honest and humble and they were both really nice, polite, knowledgeable dudes.
They can set me up with a starter set for about $240. That seems reasonable, going by Amazon.
20 days until I move! Today is the day I make sure as many skills as possible are signed off so that I pass this placement.
Then I can go up north and hug people!
I can provide London based hugs, we need to get together before you abscond for the summer!
Just back from the shops, I bought Magnums but our freezer is broken and I grossly underestimated how sweet these Honeycomb ones would be. The clock is ticking!
Ah annual Stay Off The Internet If You're British Day, it rolls around quickly.
Also annual day of: "So how do you celebrate 4th of July in Australia/Japan/Nigeria?"
I for one will celebrate Stay Off The Internet If You're British Day by making a nice vicky sponge, drinking even more tea than usual and watching the finals of Sewing Bee.

I'm basically not doing anything this year, so if you guys have any secret save havens, can I come hang out?
It just feels... inauthentic to celebrate American exceptionalism given everything that's been going on lately.
Is um
Is 4th of july about american exceptionalism?
cause if so it's been a fraud since day 1
I mean, that's basically how most people treat it. Buncha "fuck yeah, freedom!"
Granted most of the people I know just use it as an excuse to grill out and blow stuff up.

The 4th of July is about exploding things. That's why Americans would ask a British citizen what they do for the 4th of July... yer regular US citizen doesn't think about what 4th of July represents except exploding things.

In which case Americans should come back on November the 5th, a far better exploding things celebration that directly commemorates something almost exploding!
It sounds a lot like Bonfire Night from what I've heard about that holiday, really. Just a fun day to look at some pretty explosions and get together with friends and family.
I mean, I'm also just super burned out and enjoying a long weekend to myself. But the American flags everywhere and all the other nonsense just gets super tiresome, y'know.

i think im in love with all of my friends and it is complicated
It was a short and sweet romance, which has now spiralled and crashed and I hope I never see her again
Alcohol is not something my body loves anymore at quantities more than like 3-4 glasses because I am frail
And I had more than that
Alas
Need to get back to sleep
Like, even more than when we met.

Clicking and reading a profile of an interesting lady and not getting instantly too intimidated to send a message is tough.
I would probably feel better if I had a job and an education, as many of these ladies are very specific about that...
That's why I'm holding out for a hero.
take her to an art gallery and then go for lunch
that's a cool first date I reckon
I'm on it 8-)

I'll go back in a couple of paychecks.
But it's the 4th tomorrow and everything that isn't the library which is closed will be loud and busy.
Super frustrating.
We've been texting back and forth a bunch and it is amazing to me that we first met up like less than a week ago.
