Re: Running

@avant-garde you got your plushies around to squeeze? wanna talk about what's been making you feel overwhelmed? (totally okay if you wanna chat about something else too)

Re: Running

@rav3n it's all tangled in my head... need to untangle it. 

 

  • one of the supermarkets I visit, a guy from my childhood works there, he's harmless, we were friends. I don't purposefully go there to see him because it unsettles me, but he hasn't mentioned anything, it's just part of my routine. 
  • I went to the op shop to settle and upon paying the guy dropped the jewellery box on the glass counter, chipped it and startled me quite badly due to already being unsettled.
  • Drivers on a Friday night are the worst, more road rage and tailgaters and just overall nightmares.

Re: Running

apologies for the late replies!! @avant-garde i can see how these events slowly one-uped the other. suddenly dropping things sometimes unsettles me too, and gosh i hear ya with Friday drivers, everyone just loses their patience!!

how are you holding up now that your home? were able to do something nice for yourself to unwind? also just outta curiosity, do you have a dashcam for your car?

Re: Running

@rav3n home is good, I like home.

I own one but haven't plugged it in, I don't exactly know how it works. Does it film the car behind or in front?

Re: Running

@avant-garde you reckon home is your fav/cosiest spot ever?

 

i don't have one but my dad does, he's got a front and rear one - so like the main camera is at the front (and this is the part of the dash cam where you can watch the video), and then there's a tiny camera attached at the back for the rear. 

does yours have just one camera? maybe it's just a front one?

Re: Running

@rav3n 

Mine isn't built in, you attach it to the inside and it plugs into the cigarette lighter thing
