Username checks out. Also, same. The biggest cheat: keep moving it back by like a week or even a day at a time, because something always comes up that you'd feel bad for not doing first.

It's the thought that counts! I keep asking myself, is this it? Living like this. Trying to find joy in a world doing all it can to make every aspect of life miserable and boring.

Also, if you're an empath like me, chances are you resist the urge because you know you'd only be passing your pain on to others. I hate it, but I know that self checkout won't take my pain away; just spread it to others in my life.
