Ended up getting some pizza, been just hanging out with the cats and watching movies and shows. Been a nice relaxing day. My friend and I moved our plans to the weekend of January 7th-8th. (If the weather permits)

Made the egg custard pies. They’re in the oven now, almost done. They smell AMAZING. I’ve never had these before but I’m hoping they’re good. One is for my sister and family, one is for me to keep.

Have a huge mess in my kitchen though from making them so I need to clean up all the dishes now.

Have to let them cool then refrigerate them. They should be okay by time my sister comes tonight.

So they didn’t come out perfect but I feel they came out decent considering it was my first time baking egg custard pie, and honestly my first time baking pies at all in like 10 years. So I’m happy with it and I’m happy I did it. I’m really interested in learning to bake more and learn the science of it all etc It tastes good.

Those custard pies look so good, Blue_Bird !! I don't think there's going to be a smoke break today, probably not. Too cold. I hope everyone is ok. Roll Call 197

I'm going to try to pair my new Bluetooth earbuds with my phone today. I have a few different very cheap ones to try.

It's 26 degrees Fahrenheit, not life threateningly cold. But there's probably no smoke break.

We got a smoke break! It wasn't too cold out, I was warm enough in my coat. Of course I can only close the first snap because I gained so much weight.

My sister got me a journal, an UberEats gift card, and a Fandango gift card. I used the fandango gift card to purchase movie tickets for myself and my friend to see the new Avatar movie on this coming Thursday. Saving the UberEats gift card for some other time since I ordered pizza yesterday. I'll probably use it to get some Japanese food sometime

My friend did come by, about 4:40pm. So that was good!

I am so thankful for Pluto tv! And my friend, of course.

I'm doing pretty good. Just noticing that I have more anxiety on the Latuda though. It's kind of to be expected though. I guess I just have to deal with it.

Kind of wishing I could go up on the Latuda. I'm at 60 mg.

I've been taking 2 mg Klonopin every day to deal with the anxiety.

My sister texted me a few minutes ago. She said she really likes the pie, woke up and had some in the middle of the night. So I was really glad to hear that. That made me feel good because I was worried that she wouldn’t like it because I have no experience with baking egg custard before and I’ve never even had it before now so I didn’t know what to expect

The next dessert I plan on making is for St. Patrick’s day in March. It has a layer of crushed Oreos mixed with melted Andes mint chocolates, on top of that is a layer of mint buttercream (and some green food dye so it’s festive), and a layer on top with an Andes mint chocolate ganache. I told her I’d give her some of those too and that if there’s ever something she wants me to make specifically she can let me know and I’ll try to make it for her.

I’m reading a book called Legends and Lattes: A Novel of High Fantasy and Low Stakes by Travis Baldree

It’s set in a high fantasy environment and is about an Orc, she decides to settle down, stop battling and open up her own coffee shop, nobody else in the area knows what coffee is or us ever heard of it, so it will be difficult for her to get customers probably at first.

It’s just like a cozy type fantasy novel, with an orc running a coffee shop. Anyway I thought it sounded really cool and unique so I bought it and am reading and enjoying it now.

My plan is to induce long term, stabilized mania (Increase in intelligence and energy).

26th of December, 2016 - That was when the big trip happened. The Earth revolves, 6 times.. What is important about the number 6...

Every hallucination I've had, I was too curious.. I wanted to know what was said. And yet, when it's over, I don't remember anything. Even musical hallucinations - Beautiful songs that I've never heard before, going into a trance state - Creating lyrics... All forgotten.

Apart from my name being called when no one was in the house... Fear, fear..

I haven't been doing well since opening up about all the stuff in therapy. I had a good Christmas, yes but to be honest I probably wasn't doing well before that but I held everything in internally in my mind but now I'm breaking down in tears everyday. I wish I wasn't alive but that's not an option as I have two cats I need to be here to take care of. I have a lot of self hatred , I'm 28 and have gotten nowhere in life and can't handle stress well, at all. I tried college multiple times and always end up having to withdraw due to deteriorating mental health. And bringing up all the other stuff from the past in therapy has just opened up like a damn bursting in my brain and I feel a lot of negative emotions lately.
