Spreading a little love and positivity on this killer Tuesday morning. Plants are finally blooming and there is no need for any layers outside today! Anything cool and exciting going on for you?

Saw my doc this morning, plan is to be off phenibut completely in a few weeks - down to 1.5g/day now, down from 9. Had an EKG done that came back with good results. In cooler news, band is booking our first tour! Gonna head out east.

Sending love, good vibes, and solidarity to all :soviet-heart:

That’s great you’re going out there and creating and practicing your art! And I’m glad your health is looking good.

I just sent a short story collection in for consideration at a place for authors without agents, so that’s exciting.

And in general, I’m feeling much more confident with myself as a writer. For the first time, I looked into writing articles for magazines I like or read. I feel like I’m getting practice in by vibing with my people here on Hexbear.

Also you’re not gonna catch me.

Good luck with your submission! I’ve also been trying to get into writing short stories, though I’ve been having trouble getting something I feel even satisfied with and I’m not sure how to progress.

Also until this post I didn’t fully realize how many of us were birds, but now that I think of it there are at least 4. I think we should start a club. A flock, if you will

I know I shoukd be stressed about finals and getting a job and I am but not as stressed as I should be? Which is actually pretty great :shrug-outta-hecks:

I’ve taken 2 finals so far, my mycology final i feel good about and definitely will do well overall in the class. I feel awful about my microbial physiology exam I just took but even if I do fail the class I have 2 backup plans so it won’t be the end of the world. I have my last final tomorrow and I think till go okay.

I applied to a job that my friend got hired at and the interviewer has rescheduled my phone interview twice now, after missing the original call time and me having to email her :/ theres still an in person interview and a drug test if I do well whenever the phone interview happens :///

It is where I’m from and at least in my state and industry it is. Weed is illegal here but like all the surrounding states have legalized it so they test more often here :/

I’m tired and a chronic medical thing is bothering me but also feeling good about work, organizing, and life in general. Also got some killer finds at Goodwill.

Glad things are looking up for you, too, comrade, and thanks for asking!

Some clothes and stuff, like a fancy boi shirt that’s very comfy and usually costs $140 that I got for $7. Favorite item is a nice tea mug with a fancy metal mesh strainer that I remember wanting many years ago. Usually $30, got it for $3 and have been using it every day!

Don’t sleep on Goodwill!
