Now my parents are visiting.

So, for once... I shared my sadness with my mother.

It was immediately dismissed with a blithe “oh well!”

And i wonder why I usually don’t have much to say to my parents

Last week I flew to Sydney to watch the critical role live show.

The thing I was looking forward to, the thing they’ve done at every live show? Singing the song.

10,000 voices raised on high, together.

It didn’t happen. I was gutted.

The other night they played their second show, in Melbourne.

Guess what happened?

...That’s right. They got to sing.

I’m gutted all over again.

Flew to Sydney yesterday to catch the Critical Role live show.

I’ve never been someone who delights in solo activities.
Being surrounded by groups of folks celebrating together just put my loneliness into stark relief.

Don’t get me wrong, it was fun. But could’ve been so much better with someone to share it with.

Old co-worker reached out about filling a role in his team. Sounded great!

Two days later... hiring freeze.

There goes that tiny shred of hope

For the first few months of this year I went to pub d&d.

Due to choir clashing, I’ve not been able to make it the past six weeks.

I was.. missed? Folks were genuinely happy to have me back at the table? There were hugs???

Is this…. Community?

After nearly a month we removed the bandage contact lens.

Everything looked good!

…that lasted less than 24 hours. Reckon the cornea done tore again.

Fucking cockbiscuits.
