    Ugh, tonight is one of those nights where I cannot stop itching. I wish that this would stop.. But considering that they do not know what is causing it, I doubt that is happening anytime soon.

    I've come to realize that it pays to have good interpersonal skills. My life has been screwed over by toxic people and plain bad luck, and I've usually blamed myself, thinking I must be creepy, mean, or bad mannered. So I've always tried be nice, or at least polite. Sometimes people watch me trying to be nice, and they assume I'm just being fake, or a suck up, a teacher's pet, the boss's lap dog, or whatever, but I'm not. I know people above me can usually see through that, so I don't try to kiss up, I just try to get on their good side. That's it, really, and it can really pay off.

    I find it annoying when people judge me for liking plain food. For the most part I have a healthy diet, I just don't like a lot of intense foods. Unfortunately, quite a few foods that are intense for me are not for others. Sometimes I wish I could make anyone who tells me that I'm being over dramatic experience the world like I do for a day. Look, I get it, I'm fortunate to have so much choice. I'm privileged.

    However, I have a sensitive stomach and most of my senses are constantly on high-alert. Some foods physically hurt or overwhelm me so much that I have to leave. I'm not being over dramatic for the sake of it. Whenever I try to function in those situations, I act irrationally and sometimes I damage my friendships as a result. It clouds my thinking. Admittedly I've even broken down in tears when I've gotten really overwhelmed. I need that recovery time or I'll regret it later.

    What's great is when I meet people who understand and/or respect this. Rather than others who tell you that you'll be fine and just need to increase your tolerance through exposure. Sure, maybe if it's gradual. However, if you throw me into a situation abruptly that is likely to cause me to freak out and you make me stay there...you shouldn't be too surprised if I end up losing it. I definitely appreciate it when someone lets me take a break or leave without too much fuss, or offers to go somewhere less intense with me for a while.

    I woke up briefly at 3am because the thunderstorm was so loud. I couldn’t even see anything outside because the rain was coming down so hard.

    I wish I could feel real tranquility for even a couple of hours right now.

    I just want a mental break and not feel some degree of anxiousness all the time.

    So yeah. 5:30 in the morning, watching TV, and every other commercial has talking food. Is it just me or is that not creepy as heck? I mean, these talking tacos. They have families, apparently, and they just watch each other get eaten... That not a cute commercial, that's the plot to a friggin horror movie. Wtf.

    Side note- never take NyQuil and watch Syfy movies, it doesn't end well.

    There's something very comforting about sitting and waiting ten minutes for your pizza in a modern Little Caesar's.

    A friend of mine is visiting town, he got two supreme pizzas, which have pepperoni, mushroom, green peppers and olives on them. He also got bread sticks, which were a little too heavy. Like these were like little billy clubs, they were so heavy and so thick. But the pizza was okay. I prefer just pepperoni from Little Caesar's, usually.

    Sounds like it was a good pizza. The combination of the topping sounds good. I had a similar pizza today (with the addition of ham).

    It was okay, like I said I prefer just the five dollar pepperoni pizza from Little Caesar's.
