I've tried closing the bedroom door but then she wakes me up by scratching at it
I've turned her heated sleeping pad back on to try and entice her away from the bed; hopefully this works tonight
At least I'm getting some good nighttime sleep so there's that, maybe it'll be enough

I ran the first leg, a quaint 5k, at 6:30 AM and then another 5k at 11:30 AM.
I'm here to tell you, that has FUCKED! up my sleep schedule something fierce.
In the first, wife and I were playing with our baby when she spoke for the first time. She was playing with her real-life favorite bath toy, a turtle, and she said turtle. There was much celebration. In real-life, she's still a good long while from talking, so it was a sweet little anticipatory fantasy. One kind of dream.
Second dream, I was working some restaurant job. Black Dickies, black t-shirt, non-slip shoes, whole deal. I was walking home from work, drinking a PBR tall boy. A man shouted from his porch, "Are you gonna drink in my driveway EVERY night?" and I shouted back, "I'm not drinking HERE, I'm WALKING" and he sprayed me with a hose. Different kind of dream.
Inside us there are two wolves, etc etc
And I was politely, but firmly, escorted out of the theater and off the premises by Ethan Hawke and his posse.
You heard about that Face/Off sequel, huh

my dad is getting older. his balance has been fucked for years but now it’s getting worse. he keeps having falls. too stubborn to do anything about it…can’t live with me. would rather jump off a cliff than be sent to a home. my mom had a massive heart attack a couple years ago. she’s ok now but it fucked up her left hand
how do we grapple with getting older? with our loves ones getting older? the day will come someday, and i’ve never been totally comfortable with it
The foolish elasticity and firmness of youth being replaced by the enlightened sag and billow of the years.
One of my somewhat frequently recurring dream scenarios is being back in school, and skipping math class specifically.
I never skipped math class.
And last week I dreamed about overdue library books.
Brain, stop it.
I barely went
But yeah I'm not a fan of getting older. It sucks to get sick or watch my friends get sick.

Also: Commit crimes against your government, speak out, protest, slit the tires of fascists this is a joke post it cannot be used in a court of law.
And I'm not wearing pants
yeah, all of this + take transgender hormones is pretty much what i was gonna say
did you feel like continuing this bit in a thread where i’m trying to grapple with the inevitability of my parents death and in turn my own in the future, leaving my son to experience the same dread was cool and good to do
In my 20s I lived recklessly and self-destructively; I was pretty sure I was gonna die at 27, be part of the 27 club. I had not made any art that anybody cared about (nor should have). This did little to dissuade me of my romantic certainty. "No point REALLY trying, I'm almost out of here." And then I kept going, which annoyed me at the time. Felt like I had fucked up, or something. Blew my shot.
And then my 30s have been the best years of my life, by a lot. Started actually making art instead of just fantasizing about Being An Artist. Got married. Got my dream career. Got a kid.
Somewhere in there, folks in my life started dying. My wife's father, my grandparents, more relatives, more friends. A few years of getting walloped by grief every six months, every five. And each of those people has missed something amazing - there are a lot of folks that I wish could've met my daughter.
Which doesn't make me despair, but rather makes me cheesily, cornily grateful to age. "Every extra year I get is more opportunity to find something special, something I want to share, something someone I loved would have loved." Imagining how they'd have reacted, imagining them happy with me, bringing them forward with me.
If the pricetag for meeting my daughter is that my knee clicks when I get up from sitting on the floor with her, well, that kind of makes me love the clicking.
Here is a poem that makes me cry.
I will admit
I woke up, saw the thread title, and hit reply without reading the op
I apologize

i thought i'd be able to lean on my mom more considering my dad passed a few years ago (thx cancer) but she's spending the majority of her time with her new bf in illinois so our family unit is truly becoming an island
doing my best not to ignore my body when something hurts or i can't do something like i used to
I have bad dreams about previous jobs. Being stuck there while customers keep coming in on Christmas Eve or whatever and "we're not allowed to tell them to leave" so I end up working straight through Christmas Day.

This whole time, I am nearly forty with fast-dwindling hope for ever having relationships of my own, and the question that will not leave the back of my mind is "Who is going to do this stuff for me, when I am his age?"
it has been...
