Hahah I got an email at work from an external advisor that I dealt with. Basically they’re trying to poach me and want me to work for them.

I’m flattered, but I’m fine where I am.

I wish I were more efficient about charging my headphones. I keep wandering off before I've plugged them in. Then I have to wait another hour.

That's great! Maybe you can negotiate a raise with your current employer if they hear about other people wanting to hire you. Roll Call 182

I just started this position in January I don’t think I have the kind of power to do that yet. But it’s a cool thought.

The caffeine crash made me really tired yesterday. I'm trying to improve my cognition but I have no motivation rn.. Might as well take 10mg of Dexedrine IR early and see if that helps.

A friend that I don't know very well keeps asking me for money like 30-60 dollars a month and then pays me back - And it's been a cycle of this for like a year. I'm ignoring his messages now. I find it mentally draining.

I need more social interaction and such - It's good for mental health. I'm sitting here in quarantine. My test came back negative btw. I want to exercise too - I hiked a lot and mountain biked in 2019 but the people I was with are dysfunctional and self destructive so I don't talk to them anymore.

I'm proud of myself for making hard boiled eggs today. I've been meaning to do it the past week but didn't have the motivation. It may seem stupid to be proud of but normally I eat whatever's quick and easy like cereal or a sandwich, I don't put much effort into cooking or preparing food often

I think you should be proud of yourself Blue_Bird. I don't cook much either. My parents do it for me. So when I do cook something, I am often proud of myself. I think it's good self care that you did and I'm glad that you are proud of yourself. Go you!

If you get in the mood to make stuff, try making a few things at once. That way you can have them as leftovers for the week, or put in the freezer and eat later. Especially for those times you don’t feel like cooking.

I find cooking hard as well but every time my mom cooks, I ask her to show me how and I put it on Evernote, write the recipe and take pictures. It's just another thing I'm trying to do to improve neuroplasticity and habits.

I am not much of a cook at all. But sometimes I like to make things. Especially tacos.

I would probably eat just snacks and stuff if my mom didn’t cook. I’m lucky.

I can cook just enough to survive. I’m spoiled by my mom and sister when it comes to cooking. I can make a delicious spaghetti bolognaise and fried rice or fried noodles though

I want to get better at cooking and try new things. It's hard for me to have confidence when I'm cooking though and I get scared so I like to try cooking things the first time with my sister then after that feel more comfortable cooking it on my own.

Gonna start writing down what I do daily.

T wants me to organize my daily time better and not be on my phone so much. Really worried cuz my business and personal life is on my phone.

I feel like she doesn’t understand...

I experienced a variety of distractions today, & I felt better most of the time.

I’m challenging myself to go 2 months without caffeine or candy. Give my body a break from it all.
