trainerlyra this week has truly been such a mess LOL let's get into it. this time with pictures!
monday: nothing terribly exciting? had therapy, it... went. bit of a long session. also got severely embarassed when my therapist offered to skip this coming week bc i'll be away for lena's wedding, but i very quickly said NO PLEASE SEE ME MONDAY so there's that LOL. it was also red's commencement!!! i was so happy to watch it via the livestream. that was definitely the highlight of my day!!! exercise routine was definitely exhausting though. i need to get into better shape lol. i booked our last travel arrangements for the trip, too, like trains to get to the venue and our second hotel. i did get starbucks also. obsessed with the berry refresher thing. it's so SOUR. i love it.
tuesday: got the CPC version of tokyo babylon version 3! i really love those outfits, they remind me of a mafia AU and if you know me you know how much i love mafia AUs... maybe i should write one for TBX at some point.... anyways. what else happened tuesday. i wrote a lot, mostly. to finish my insanely long seisub crack treated seriously fic, found here. not much else really happened! thankfully. i like quiet days emotionally. i did do another routine and that was also a mistake, i should've given it a day, my legs hurt soooo bad. getting in shape/losing weight is hard when you have eds :( also a migraine from hell started this evening, which i probably should not have ignored. i am a product of my own hubris.
wednesday: busy day! i dyed my hair to get ready for lena's wedding (i cannot believe that's just a few days... crazy). i also managed to eat a reasonable amount! too bad my migraine was still going strong all day.
we also went to a movie for nick's birthday! his birthday was the 13th, but we got together today for a special showing at an IMAX for uncut gems. i went into the movie knowing absolutely nothing and that was a mistake haha. nick was NOT lying when he said it was th most stressful movie experience. i almost had a panic attack in the theater which is pretty bad pff. poor kyle was also SO stressed. it definitely made my ongoing migraine VERY bad lmao. but hanging out with him/will/nick's roommate at shake shack before was nice, despite the insane weather. why was it 95F in may?? gross. as usual i brought joongdok along with me!
thursday: the DAY was great! i had a first screening interview with mari's company, which went really well. hung out with jason, we started demon slayer since we finished up x/1999 last week. i liked it so far! he's very excited for me to get into it, he's been trying to push it on me for awhile now, but really he played himself since he got me into jjk last year and we know how THAT turned out. (brainrot, to the extreme.) even with my migraine i was having a good time. also tried a new drink when we went to 7/11 at midnight as we usually do. it was really good! i should start getting the canned boba more often i think.
the NIGHT sucked though. kyle and i got into it a little bit over something stupid - we both have the same political beliefs we just think about it very differently (because i am an idealist and he's a realist lol). which lead to me spiraling and with a migraine and other physical pain it was a badddd night.
friday: migraine from hell still present! kyle and i apologized in the morning which was good, at least. i scheduled my follow up interview with mari's company for a few days after i get back from germany, which was good news. they got back to me wicked fast i hope that means good things lol. i finally sorted out the health insurance thing what with my being unemployed even if i threw up on the phone due to said migraine from hell. got some good packages though as consolation lol:
left is liz lisa's teddy bear book print in red, from 2016! i've been wanting this one for a hot minute. right is an angelic pretty lucky pack salopette, dream fantasy from 2012 in black! got it for a really good deal, like $45 including shipping from canada on LM. AP's salos are my favorite, i just love how cute and casual they are.
uuuunfortunately friday took a turn for the Very Bad, when kyle called me frantically trying to get ahold of our friend stiven. he'd sent his ex-girlfriend - who we hadn't spoken to in maybe a decade - a suicide goodbye text, and she called kyle to see if he knew what was going on. nobody was able to get ahold of him but i thankfully had his updated address and one of us - not sure which - ended up calling services. jason managed to get him on the phone by a stroke of luck, stiven hadn't saved his number when he switched phones a few months ago, and stalled him out until services arrived. i normally HATE calling/having them called, because i despise mental inpatient systems more than most, but stiven's roommate told us that he'd just finished his note when jason called and he was literally the thing that stalled him enough for help to arrive. so i can't be too upset, this time. he's in another state so we can't keep vigil, but i hope this convinces him to move back here. bumfuck nowhere indiana is not a good place for someone who lived in the city his whole life. will ended up coming over, both for his own comfort and for kyle's. so that sucked! rough day all around. especially because of the memories it brings up.. this will definitely be the main topic of therapy on monday i think orz.
saturday: packing packing packing... started trying to get everything together for germany (I LEAVE ON TUESDAY?), so that means... trying out outfits to wear!
but yeah my migraine finally broke, so i spent the morning writing, letting kyle sleep in after the horrors of friday, and then i ended up restarting digimon cyber sleuth again... this time on steam. hopefully that means i won't forget? to finish it? again? i've gotten at least 20 hours in on three different platforms which is ridiculous lol. i really do actually LIKE the game a lot, idk why this keeps happening. but i gotta get through my backlog goal! so. trying again. and then spent a couple hours trying to figure out clothes. i just have so many and i'm always so picky about vibes that it's hard for me to just like, choose a few. but that's what the vacuum bags are for LOL.
sunday: and that brings us to today! at work currently at my part time job, which i only keep to see my dad since it's a good midpoint between our houses. he handed me $300, which like, very much thank you father but also please do not you are RETIRED my husband makes PLENTY OF MONEY i promise. (we don't, actually, but we survive lmao.) importantly, i also got starbucks breakfast
and i finished up some editing presents of which i cannot name because she might see this lmao. but really it was good to see my dad. i could tell how nervous he is about the trip because i have never been that far away from him before, but at least he knows kyle will be with me and i bought an esim so he can call me or i can call him in case of emergency. plus i bought us travel insurance so there's that lol. i'm still not doing GREAT after friday but i'll be home in 5 hours and can collapse into kyle then. there's supposed to be thunderstorms tonight, so maybe i will get some more writing done after packing. i'd like to make more headway on seisub tanabata fest fics...
last week's goals? met some but not all, whoops. but the only two i didn't meet were the writing related ones, and i still didn't pretty okay on the writing front this week so it's fine, i guess.
hopes for coming week-

hopes for coming week-
- take a lot of pictures while i'm away!! i'm terrible at this usually let's do better future mitzi.
- get jason a souvenir
- remember to call my father at least every other day while i'm away, preferably once a day so he doesn't worry
