I am doing well. I am carrying a 4.0 in school right now. It's only 2 classes this semester at entry level stuff (english 1 and algebra) but still, it feels like quite an accomplishment going from weed-smoking bed-depression to this. I'm struggling sometimes remembering to take my morning dose which doesn't help me very much on those days as you could imagine. I've developed something of a takeout addiction- I'm literally eating 90%+ of my meals out and almost not cooking for myself at all. It's very, very financially painful, but I don't have to cook or clean so my brain is just like, "eh, fuck it." Those times when I do go out and get some groceries for myself my brain continues to throw the fuckits around and the produce just goes to rot. Still, 4.0 is pretty good.

I feel you on the cooking. I used to love cooking. Now I can barely stand waiting five minutes. And I have a teenager to feed now too. But yay for your school!!! Oh I did try Factor, the food was AMAZING and only 2-3 minutes to get up. But again with the child it's too expensive for both of us. I think it comes out to $7-8 a meal.
Are we still doing these?! How come they're not showing up in my feed!?
Nobody answered for weeks :(. I'm happy to post again. Yay someone wants it!
I mean i dont have much to say but it was nice knowing it was there. when I started responding to these initially i was in kind of a rough spot, and now that I'm doing a lot better I guess I haven't felt the need to seek it out when it wasnt showing up. And the reason it wasnt showing up, now im thinking about it, is that i never sort by subscribed anymore, which is really my fault.
