What's on your mind right now?
One I loved 2 and 3 yrs ago i recently checked n it has 'gone off/rancid'.. Mon Guerlain
However its 'gone off version' smells almost identical to this OTHER (brand new) fragrance.
That's lucky! I love Mon Guerlain as well, i miss wearing perfume..
Do you not wear it bcuz of your job?

After two iron infusions and adding a vitamin C supplement and a supplement of vitamin B12 to my plethora of medications, my iron level rose by a whole 0.1. Same process again, two more iron infusions a week apart and then presumably check my iron level and see where I’m at.

Recently, I'm having this itchy reaction to most of my clothes.
And been having itchy whenever I change clothing, usually after a bath.
Not really the textile or the clothing itself.
It's either the detergent, the fabric conditioner or the bleach... I'm buying a new brand of detergent next time.

Edit - ah, I realized what is the probable culprit. Last night before bed I took some ibuprofen dry and had a little trouble getting it down, so it may have stuck in that area for a while and caused irritation/damage. I’m just going to have to wait it out, then - but at least it means it’s probably nothing serious.
My mom asked Doctor Google (it wasn’t me this time, I swear) and it replied that it may be several days until my trachea starts to feel better because it’s probably got an open wound from the ibuprofen right now. Ugh, it hurts SO VERY MUCH when I lie down (I’d rate it as only a little less painful than a migraine at its worst, pretty much can’t do anything besides try to wriggle into an upright position), and my head and body keep insisting that they really want to
be lying down because of the anemia stuff. It hurts when I go from sitting to standing and vice versa as well, but not quite as much (but still a lot), and I also have some swelling in a place where feeling it by swallowing makes me nauseated. I suppose I should be thankful that I don’t have COVID-19, which would probably feel way worse even if it didn’t turn potentially deadly, but gosh-DANG, it hurts.

That I'll probably get a million downvotes on Reddit for justifying the princes kissing Snow White and Sleeping Beauty by comparing it to having to give an unconscious woman CPR. Many women don't receive CPR when they need it because people, usually men, would rather leave them to die than risk being embarrassed or accused of sexual assault.
Seriously, I've been playing 112 Operator on Steam, and one of the goals early in the game is to correctly give CPR instructions over the phone to help a man save an unconscious woman. !!SPOILER!! You have to tell him he doesn't need the woman's consent or you'll fail.
Whenever someone cries, I'm torn between the right thing to do with understanding and comforting from punching them in the face for being bothersome.
Now, if someone else doesn't like that someone cry, I'm torn between sympathizing them from punching them in the face for being hypocritical.
So, with that in mind, I'd be torn between screw this crap between those two from punching them both in the face all the same.
Despite knowing that somewhere in my head, there's a sage who's pretty much above the conflict and resolve things like any mediator would.
Except I had enjoyed such role, I'm just so too tired to bother with any effort other than not wanting to do with others or just punch them both in the face just so I wouldn't have to.
Yes. I've said this already, time and time again:
I have a penchant for violence.
In which torn in all directions, good and bad, ever wonder when I'd truly outgrow it in time.

I'm mostly enjoying it. I've gotta go back to work on Friday, so I'm trying to get as many verses recorded while I've got the house to myself.

That’s an interesting perspective I’ve never thought about before. I don’t think it deserves downvotes. Hopefully you won’t get that.

Nope, I am as well. Gives me an excuse not to go out and makes me feel less bad about just sitting around playing on my iPad all day.

I would've enjoy it more if I have the whole house myself more often than not.
Even resorting to sleeping at day and being awake at night, I cannot help simply sensing any other person's presence even if they're asleep.
But if it's anytime of the day, with no one but myself at home, it just feels better.
... Even better if it's possible for the whole neighbor's empty. It would've been so blissful.
Yet I can only dream and could never help but recall those rare, short yet so sweet moments alone with no one within several feet radius.

here i was just leaving the market ,, about 5 steps outta the door i heard yelling coming from , just where had stepped out the door ,, someone pushing entire grocery basket of groceries ran out the door with his cart .. then more yelling into the parking lot charges the grocery cart ! ,with taller thin dark haired individual in a hoodie ,, flys into the traffic area of parking lot .. a man chasing after him in a desperate hurry and a woman checker yelling after them ,, yelling very loudly .. Struck me with fear of what might happpen , me with noo where to hide or get cover .. The cart is toppled over in the path of the man chasing him , apparently , they were not together .the fellow is still holding on to a gallon of whole milk ,begins dodging between cars , thankfully , not in my directions. Then the man, after dodging inbetween cars throws the milk bottle and flees the parking lot. The chase ceases..
All this before noon... was scarey than i woulda expected... am very glad the violence did not escalate. Woman sitting on a bench near me along the wall said , it was sad things had come to this.. i said i hope it does not get worse but , she seemed to think , it might get worse.
Realising she was speaking a truth , i just got to my vehicle and calmed down .. Have only witnessed this kinda of thing on a much smaller scale in a distressed neighborhood. once over 30 yrs ago.
while i was working in the market. . On some equipment for the market.
Covid desperation , is going to cause ppl to get hurt .. and , i dont want to be a part of this.
, All this merely 4 blocks away from my home. House 3 doors away suspected of meth dealing, seems always to have these desperate looking ppl / 99 percent males , walking past my home to this suspected meth house.directly into the backyard . there not using the front door.

If so those people are silly to actually look into a fairytale based on magic as real life stupid things that perhaps happened to them..the point of most real original folk stories n fairytales was not to be moral or politically correct.

Even dealers don't like how it looks when a bunch of junkies are constantly coming to the door. It hurts the property value of your trap house.
