September Blog: Better Late Than Never (Warning: Swearing In Included Video) · 4:07am Sep 15th, 2023
So far, September hasn't been much better. The physical side of it hasn't been as relentless now that the weather has cooled, though my migraines have still been nasty, along with some other sources of pain.
But there's also been some... interpersonal issues that I am not going to get into on a pony blog. But, you ever come out of an interaction, or series of interactions, unsure if you should become a therapist, or if you need a therapist? If you have, safe bet the answer is the latter.
Oh, and there's when my Internet was barely working for a few minutes at a time for bit. That was "fun" too.
Anyway, I'll drop the stats here and then... time to catch up on my messages, a second time. And write.
I really, really want to write.
