I have no complaints...

The Unicorn is with me for her winter break from school, so I don't know how much I'll be checking in, but I'll try to update as much as possible.

Mental Health / Unfuck Yourself:

- Therapy – Honestly? I got nothing. No depression, no anxiety, no fear of abandonment, no trust issues... I mean, there have been a few twinges of resentment when events from 2016 have been brought up, but other than that, a fat wad of nothing.

Bran's been amazing. Both with myself and the Unicorn. He proves his love every day.

I have no complaints.

- Writing – Also nothing – But Misha's other leg warmer seems over half done.

- Reading – Just started reading some fresh trash. The author stinks at continuity, but everything else seems okay. Not a lot of misspelled or mis-used words. No serious grammar errors of missing words either... just shit continuity.  

- Sleep / Fitbit – 8 hours 14 minutes, 10 minutes to fall asleep, 3x awake, 17x restless, 45 minutes awake/restless - So, I figured out how to make the Fitbit behave! - I have to record a totally bogus as fuck sleep log before manually putting it in sleep mode again, and THEN I get a proper reading in the morning! - Fucked up, yeah, I know, but it works.  

- Fur-babies – Dreamy has been coming to visit quite regularly. We don't see him much in the mornings because we're still asleep, but we manage the evening visit rather well. - Last night the Unicorn and I had Pizza and Dreamy licked the fuck out of one of the slices, LOL. I ended up eating that one. I'm not scared of Dreamy's cat germs.

Physical Health / Unfuck Yourself:

- Inflammation - // - Exercise/Yoga - I'm not really happy with the news here because I was finally able to comply with the Blue Falcon's wishes and I started a more intensive exercise routing. Still seated and low impact, but enough to get my heart rate up and that's what matters.

But, then I was noticing how SORE I was for the whole rest of the day after. Sore in the bad way. Not 'I worked out and I feel great' kind of sore. More the 'I've done something bad to trigger my inflammation' kind of sore.

So, I'm fucked.

I'm damned if I do, damned if I don't.  

I either get healthier via exercise at the expense of my personal comfort for the whole rest of the day – plus, who knows what kind of injury I could be instigating if that inflammation is effecting my joints, which is where I seem to feel it a lot in my hips.

Or, I don't exercise at all and my health continues to deteriorate. Much to the Blue Falcon's dislike.  

The worst part is that there's no such thing as a doctor that treats this kind of inflammation. There's no specialist in this area that I can consult. The best I can do is my chiropractor...  

I see him day after tomorrow.

He'll probably just tell me to eat healthier – which I still can't afford – so, I’m still fucked.

*frown*

Relationships / Family:

- Bran – Not much in the way of update here. Bran is amazing and he shows love every day, so my tension about whether or not he wants to be here dissipates a little more with each passing moment. He's even loving towards the Unicorn.

What else is there to say?

He's amazing.

- The Unicorn – She's amazing too. - It came up in my Facebook memories that a YEAR AGO exactly, I started her on Buffy/Angel - Here we are a year later and we JUST FINISHED Angel!!

A perfect journey!

Also, she LOVES LOVES LOVES her winter holiday gift from me. I got her this little stuffed Cthulhu and she adores the crap out of it. It's so cute because she has these three stuffling fox companions and now it goes: fox, fox, fox, Cthulhu, LOL... One of these things is not like the other. One of these things is not the same.

Bran got her a keychain. A little mini Demigorgon from Stranger things. SHE FUCKING LOVES IT!!

We did one of our Thanksgivings too. We ate pig and watched The Girl With All the Gifts.

It's all good here...

… it's just so good.

Relationships / Sweeties:

- Updates on Favorites -  

- Blue Falcon – Not much out of the Blue Falcon lately – not even sure if he'll be coming by to see the Unicorn at all, or if he's coming to grab me for Movie Night this coming Sunday. I think I'm going to ask Bran if I can invite the Blue Falcon over for a Middle Man Marathon and Chinese Food on Christmas Day.

- Sweeties -

- Bear – He just keeps missing me more and more... it seems like he's really having a hard time not seeing me. He even texted me an 'I love you' this morning, and that's something that he hadn't admitted to before... I'm hoping I can arrange to see him soon. I'm getting pretty worried about him.

 - AmbiguSweeties -

 - Pathfinder – Nothing new to report.

Relationships / Just Friends:

Nothing new to report.

End Notes:  

Nothing to say in closing... I just want to post this while I have the chance to. Right now the Unicorn and I are toggling between Supernatural and RWBY. I have to actually pay attention during RWBY, so that limits my 'working time' to the times where Supernatural is running in the background.

Take care, Everyone!!
