JenStar, I don't know you but I love you. You cheer me so much. I just emotionally stuck, but sometimes it feels too real. I don't know if it's therapy or a natural process of aging (I remember this happened to my father) but smells and sights, even sounds now, are triggering parts of my brain that are much younger in thought and feeling. I don't understand it, it's real experience, not imaginary.
A few times in my life I've experienced sight and sound hallucinations, most recently a couple of weeks ago (I think, I still have to check and find out if it was real, I have to call my financial advisor and ask). I know that sounds crazy but believe me, it makes sense.
Okay, I'm going to school part-time come September, preparatory to working in a hospital environment. Certain skills I need. In the meantime, I've decided I don't really want to work but have to, so I'm going to do the thing that requires the least psychological commitment I can think of, for now. A physical labour job that makes peanuts (although I can't believe the miserly wages they offer for college grads even).
I have to buy something orange.
It will make me feel better.
