Honestly my life is fantastic right now I LITERALLY cannot understand why I feel like this today. I have a ton going on and all of it is good but somehow that's still scary and so many of the good things that are happening are somehow scary anyway and I'm really ultra struggling. How y'all doing. Tell me something good that you're up to this weekend and maybe your blooming will help distract me from whatever this ridiculous anxiety is coming from. It do be like that sometimes.

Damn that's a lot of moving. Hopefully it's for good reasons? Part of my stress also definitely involves a move. That shit is stressful

That's a good question that I never really examined until you asked. The city moves were related to school and work, fairly typical stuff. Then there were 9 same-city upgrades, which seems high. I guess every time I get the renewal letter, it's not just a rent hike, it's a reminder that I'll be free to choose again in the near future. I'm just renting an apartment for me, so there's no mortgage involved and no kids to enroll in a new school district. I can see why people might not want to do this so often and I might settle down at some point, but I think it's been worth it overall.
