@jacob: Things are going well, I guess. I'm a bit scared of all the changes but they're inevitable and this pandemic is actually a good time to work on self development and move on from jobs I hate (which is mostly every job ever XD).

We still get the cigarettes and weed smells from time to time, but we manage. It's not too too bad, you know? I mean, it still sucks but it's not really that often anymore. If it is a really bad day I have an excuse to burn more incense 8D


Glad J is getting some money still and that he has some alternatives. I hope things will work out for you two <3


@Moi&jacob: Have you tried wearing your glasses on top of the mask? I mean the glasses resting on the fabric? I had the same problem and googled it, that's what worked for me.
I'm lucky enough that my eyesight is still pretty good even without my glasses so if I know I'm not going to need them I just don't wear them.

Well, J's mum actually made the masks for us by hand, and when I tried that... the mask doesn't fit all the way up in order to go under my glasses :mcheh: I feel bad if I don't wear the one she made though. I mean, it probably isn't helping much anyway, I read that it's actually to protect other people by catching your own sneezes etc more than anything else, but it makes J feel better if I wear it. Also I've left our front door twice in the past month, and our apartment building only once, so I guess it's not a pressing issue XD

Starting a business is tough. The advice is to have enough capital put aside to be able to survive a whole year without making a single profit. I thought that was exaggeration but it took my magazine a year and a half to break even, over two years to get to where I could pay people. The first time I had a business, when I started my studio, I ended up having to give that up as well because the loss of money was too great and I hadn't had anything saved to prepare. A lot of businesses fail during the first two years and I guess it's mostly because they don't expect to be earning so little during that time. It's really almost impossible to make that profit right away. Even when you hear about people who make a million or something in their first year, when you look into it usually you find they had to invest more than that to get started and keep running.

You know, it didn't dawn on me until after I posted...There are psychiatrists that are Christian ones. So they're biased.
Zia, you remember Mouse? He was gay, you know. He told me his parents took him to a Christian psychiatrist to fix him xD
Yeah, I remember him. How is he these days? I hope he's doing alright.
My psychiatrist was nice. He was obviously Christian because of the decor in his office, but he never screwed with me. And I was seeing him because of my religious breakdown.
He'd listen to me talk, change my medicine then send me on my way.
My psychologists did it too and I still see one of them and he's so nice to me and listens.
I'm glad you had psychologists that actually are receptive to what you say.
I know they have to bring stuff up you had issues with to help you, but it just seemed like she was picking at things, you know?

Yeah, defos. Speaking of, MEMORIAM, how is it going these days? Answer only if you're comfortable, of course.

I should try wearing my glasses on top of my mask. It's usually not too bad if I don't start talking, though.

Oh hey, JACOBGREY. The link to your magazine hasn't been working so I've been wondering how your magazine's been doing. I hope it's still going alright?

Oh~ I checked it and for some reason I wrote an extra 'www' before the https. I don't know how that happened XD Yes, everything is going fine, even better than ever :D During lockdown I've been doing weekly video chats with my team and I think we are all feeling closer as a team than before. We get to see each others homes and pets and so on.

I guess sometimes we gotta be blind for people that care about us xD

My dad taught me at a young age that I should follow my dreams, but always have something to fall back on.
He also told me when he dies to take the money and buy property and rent it out.
He said I could make good money from that.
Dunno if I can do that, though.
Not good at dealing with people.
But I do like money u8

You know, it's funny. I think about all this money and how it runs the world but it's just paper. And you can't take it with you when you die.


Zia: I don't know, I haven't talked to him in years ;;
He used to be on Facebook, but I don't know if he still is.

Aaaah, I keep on forgetting to log in :mcargh: :mcargh: :mcargh:

@jacob: Haha, I have a different issue with masks gifted by someone :D My mom works as a tailor and they sew the masks nowadays, so she takes some for herself and by chance gave us a few. First ones are pretty great, although they take long to get on the face because we have to tie up the strings (it's hella hard with long hair XD) but lately she gave us ones that are with elastic, and though I like the patterns, they're too big for my tiny face XD *cries in dwarf*

That's why I was thinking of still keeping my job and partially start the business on the side. We have savings, but you know they're not there to support is in case of some financial fiasco. We're actually counting on estate rates to go low due to the pandemic and maybe then we'd manage to buy a place instead of renting. Ash saw some house designs and is now hyped over getting a house instead of an apartment XD So yeah, I'm stressing over that business and how I'm going to jugle my time with normal job, business job, writing, ratties, Ash... sounds a little kamikaze to me :mcargh: Am I crazy or is it doable? It's so stressful XD

@Zia: I'm pretty good. The meds seem to be working, although I wonder if it's only the meds and if so, how am I going to function when they're over and do I have to go back to that not-so-great psychiatrist or should I find someone else and gosh, it's a spiral of doubt :mcheh: Overall, though, I'm doing much better. I might not come back to that psychiatrist, I think I'll just make an appointment with someone from my therapist's office. Therapy definitely helps, too. I feel super blessed with my therapist. She's really sweet and kind and doesn't push and yet I keep coming to huge conclusions on our sessions. Though maybe to a less messed up person they would be tiny or even obvious :mcheh:

@Moi: Renting out is a good money maker. But hopefully your dad will stick around for longer ;)

Yeah, funny how we value pieces of paper... And cut valueable trees to make them... It's crazy to me, tbh. Can't we just barter like in the old days? XD

I hope so too. He said he surprised he's lived this long. My grandpa died at the age of 50 and my dad's either 57 or 58.
He's diabetic and I worry about him.
Especially since he doesn't eat right and wasn't taking his insulin.
He had surgery on his shoulder and doctor usually wait until the patient is in their mid 60s, I think.
My dad told them to do it now because he probably won't make it to his mid 50s.

Pffft. My form of bartering...I play this game and people want to get people to do something and my response is "They can either do it or get their legs broken >Bu"

Did your grandpa have similar health issues as your dad?

Hate to break it to you, but your form of bartering is called blackmail :mcheh:

No. He was actually healthy. He had just had a physical exam too, I think.
But he dropped from a heart attack.
They said he had a really bad tooth and it caused his heart to go out.

I think it's actually called extortion 8u
But I mean, it works, right?
This one character cheating me out of like 10 million gold. He was literally cheating.
I said "How about if the dice lands on 3, you win and if it lands on 6, I break your legs if you don't give me my money back, you cheat >Bu

Also, I really love your avatar right now 8u
