I fell asleep on my bed this afternoon, and woke up at 7pm. For several minutes, I thought it was 7am.
I hate when that happens.

In times like that I wonder where I am. I wonder what day it is.... sleep hard enough... wonder who I am while I wipe away eye boogers.

So, Westboro Baptist Church is coming to Michigan to protest my high school.


I was hoping they'd stayed in the shadows forever.

What did your high school even do that was so ungodly in their eyes and deserving of their wrath via "God hates you all" protest signs, may I ask?

A trans person was elected as Homecoming Prince or something like that.

Bad day at work today. :( So if I may ask that you all please pray for my better performance and focus tomorrow.


The first mistake was understandable considering I tried to go too far out on my own and attempt something I had only been shown once. But the second mistake in the same area in the same day is definitely one of those things that no matter what the circumstances will bring the wrath of Nel down upon you. Thankfully I didn't have to hear it from him since he wasn't there today but it might still happen tomorrow when he comes back, or he'll gripe my trainer Sara out instead and I'll feel bad for that even if it doesn't get to her nerves (it would mine).

And then there's this dang awful substance I remember having to work with last time I was there, a kind of resin which we use in this one test to determine the cloudiness of CP2000 once it dissovles and heats up in that resin, right? And it is super annoying to handle. And when it spills .... ugh. Sucks to try to clean up. And since the test involves two instances of pouring out that resin solution into another vial - one of them also being superheated - you have to be really slow and deliberate, especially if your dexterity suffers naturally as mine seems to. Thankfully Sara didn't pitch a fit over that, and everyone's done that at some point or another so I don't feel that bad. In fact, the person who was relieving my shift said she fumbled and spilled the resin just the night before and basically screamed aloud her laments to the heavens, and to great understandability. ^_^ Still, it's easy to get so busy with things running back and forth that you will forget to be slow and safe with handling this stuff, or just feel so forced to hurry to get everything done that you'll do it anyway, knowing the dangers. I am simply going to have to train myself to keep moving slowly and carefully with this one no matter how pressured the circumstances may ever be. ... And if Nel doesn't like it, ... eh, tough.

Oh, well, tomorrow's another day. That test for cloudiness with the resin is SO inconvenient, though. ^_^

Noooo *gasp of horror* .... call the National Guard! Elevate the terror alert level!

Westboro, man .... *sigh* I am so glad that at least two of the Phelps daughters renounced that nonsense and left the church a few years ago.

The Houston Texans finally won a game and ended their 9-game losing streak. Deshaun Watson also gave me 30+ points this week - I might actually win this matchup. :clap:
As a Texans fan may I say.....

Happy October! :hi: Today is also the 10th birthday of one of my creatures, wow!

Guys... Is it normal to buy eggnog in September? My mother told me the stores are already selling Christmas stuff...
Too early! I'm not ready for Christmas stuff for almost two more months. :waaah:

I would like to ask that you keep praying for me...after doing better for a little while I was struggling again yesterday. :( I'm getting too defensive and sensitive. I seem to take disagreements as personal attacks or insults to my opinions and beliefs. I sometimes feel that it would be wrong not to defend mine when certain topics come up, so I say something...but then if I say something I feel bad about it, for some reason. And then I start feeling bad about myself.

I was also feeling sad because now all four of my grandparents have seemed to have some form of dementia, and one of them still living has been sitting around wanting to die for a while now, which is really sad to hear about. I was also scared because what if my parents get that someday? I won't be able to stay with them then. And what if my brother and I then get it someday? I worry too much. :/

...I am feeling better today so far, though.

Also praying for you today. God tells us to cast all of our worries and cares on Him, because He cares about us so much and doesn't want us to worry; He will take care of them (1 Peter 5:7). I'm sure it must be very difficult to see a family member going through that. I hope you're able to overcome those feelings about disagreements as well. Over the years, I've learned to avoid debates like that for the most part, and to only engage in them if God leads me to or if necessary. Otherwise, I just end up getting frustrated and it becomes a waste of time and effort. But, this is a brand new month and I'm sure there's plenty of good and exciting things to look forward to coming up. :hug::blueheart:

You'll see! I plan to do a livestream for it tomorrow. ;)

Thank you so much! It's easier said than done to not worry, unfortunately. :( Yeah, I need to try harder to stay away from debates but sometimes they're unavoidable. I hope October will be a great month for us all. :)

Thank you to everyone who showed your support! You're awesome. :hug::purpleheart:
