OKAY sd anon with a complete reply for once! school has kicked my ass i had to code a distillation column and it had over 700 lines of code! terrible! awful! but it’s over now!! ty for the birthday wishes i enjoyed my tidepool day! hopefully your finals went well? got drunk w some friends and socal accent came out FULL force i sounded like julia fox. like the valley girl in me was so strong it was so funny
also yes!! we did another round of poems and one of mine was based off the murakami bingo in the nyt and she liked it v much. best part is i can actually trust her compliments bc she also has critiques! you know what i mean? like if they say everything’s perfect that is a lie and you trust nothing they say! but if they have criticism and compliments it makes you think it’s real
also soba stir fry n chili oil excellent me and my friend made an hmart trip and spent over 150$ and i’ve been making a lot of braised tofu! it was that week where it was pouring rain and we were just at hmart with our seven bags hiding from the rain while our lyft came it was great! i love hmart so much and now i have a bunch of enoki mushrooms n udon noodles but no idea what to put them in
also yeah roommate drama is. it’s happening. luckily it’s calmed down bc she goes to her cousin’s every weekend and like we’re all civil now but. damn ! she still hasn’t fully apologized! idk lot of things happening on the roommate front and while some of the new stuff might involve me, i have confirmation from multiple ppl that it’s not my fault, so i’m chilling
still hiding my phone at the gym! i have so many videos to catch up on i just haven’t had time to go w the project i had. was going to go yesterday but i went to the beach instead!!!! perfect beach weather but water so cold. so cold. manhattan beach my beloved it’s the closest i can get to an sd beach here. everyone else i know hates the heat rn but i am a fan? however people referring to it as a heat wave too much. hearing heat wave the phrase in public is jarring and also my friend i went to the beach with put music on while we were lying on the sand and heat waves started playing, so internally i have just been Very Something idk what it is but you get it right? just strange sense of what is happening right now mixed with did they actually say that or am i just too plugged in
also dude i said 70? before i left home my tank at costco was 100$. genuinely horrifying
but yeah i saw heat waves being nominated for awards and i was sitting there going ?? this song got so big that it could win awards. because of dnf.
also!! i went to go see maisie peters in concert and i’m going to see lorde soon looking forward to those!! i went to maisie by myself which was surprisingly fun but during the breaks between the opener and her, i had nobody to talk to, so i did a crossword (i am now addicted to doing crosswords) and texted my roommate to send me a photo of my code LMAO
also also!!!!! i got the wordle in one and it was the best moment of my life
YES HELLO AGAIN SD ANON
oh my god you are so brave for doing coding I literally switched my major to avoid taking a coding class (well that wasn't entirely the reason but it was definitely part of it). programming just. it's complete jargon to me. i can do basic html and THAT'S IT don't ask me to do anything else pls. and yes my finals went, uh, alright! did pretty good in most of them and then I FAILED A CLASS I GENUINELY LOVED so that, um, is a thing i'm dealing with now. i studied so hard for this final and I literally loved this class and actually like?? actually paid attention in the lectures?? I have no idea how the fuck I failed I'm so pissed but oh well. on the plus side I got an A- in a class I wasn't sure if I'd get an A in so :D and oh god the valley girl accent yeah me too, the second I get drunk it comes out full force it's so bad
oooo that's a really good thing to get both compliments and criticisms, it really helps you grow so so much
enoki mushrooms and udon... sd anon you're making me wanna go to h mart again it's been so long since i've shopped there... i've just been surviving off trader joe's the past few months. maybe try making udon stir fry with the mushrooms? could be interesting!
yikes yikes yikes on the roommate front. at least you know you're not in the wrong but aaaa that sounds so stressful to deal with, at least it's all civil. would be impossible to deal with if everyone was at each other's throats all the time
the weather has been so all over the place and tbh the heat was killing me two days ago ughhh like I'm so close to the ocean yet it was in the mid 90s the entire day i was losing my mind. which honestly makes me ashamed of myself I grew up in inland north county SD where it regularly got to the mid 100s in the summers how did I become such a pussy?
also last week I was getting takeout pho and while I was waiting in the restaurant for them to bring it out heat waves started playing over the speakers and i felt a small piece of me shrivel up and die inside. i'm thrilled glass animals is getting the attention they deserve but GOD i hate being burdened with the knowledge of dnf. dream please stop liking art of you and george making out we GET IT
your tank at COSTCO was $100??? ISN'T COSTCO SUPPOSED TO BE THE CHEAPEST GAS YOU CAN GET??? holy shit sd anon even my tank wasn't that high, last time I filled it it was $85 these gas prices are brutal
you are so brave for going to a concert alone I never wanna go to concerts alone but bc of that I never go to concerts rip. shoutout to you though, love doing the crosswords in between. if that were me I'd probably be writing fic on my phone (which is a thing I've done at frat parties before lmao). so glad you had fun tho!!!
CONGRATS ON THE WORDLE I DONT DO WORDLE BUT I KNOW THATS A GOOD THING HELL YEAH

so how was your trip? I hope it went better than you were expecting
It did go better than I expected, actually! And thank you for providing me a springboard to hop off on, because I sort of wanted to organize my thoughts on the whole trip to reflect on everything.
(This got kind of long, oops, my b)
So, in case anyone else skims this, I haven’t been back to my home town in something like seven or eight years. I ran off to the Air Force right before Thanksgiving of ‘09, there was a brief visit the summer of ‘10, and I can’t recall when exactly, but the then-boyfriend and I made another brief visit six-ish months after that. I’d left on shaky terms with my aunt and uncle but stayed away because I have a, haha, all-around bad relationship with my mom. (The visit then-bf and I did left me with bruises on my arm, not because she hit me but because she wouldn’t let go.)
I was… nervous. Anxious as hell is probably a more accurate description, haha. But 95% of that anxiety was totally unfounded! I had a lovely time catching up with all my SoCal family (we’re Irish American, so I’ve got clusters of not-as-close relations spanning the entire country). The aunt and uncle who took me in my senior year of high school were an honest joy to catch up with, and it was really nice catching up with the other aunt and uncle out there too. Plus I got to hang out with all but one of my cousins, and she’s getting married next summer so I’ve got the best excuse in the world to catch up with everyone all over again in my favorite part of California! 
The best catching up was with two of my cousins, the one nearest my age and the youngest. I’d fallen out of touch with the nearest-in-age years back (we’re both equally crap at it, haha), but the three of us had dinner together twice and she and I fell right back into laughing ourselves stupid over everything like we’d only seen each other a few weeks back. And my youngest cousin is just as big a nerd as I am, so we spent like, hours, talking about writing and her RP stuff and world-building and dumb Tumblr jokes. It was great. :D Youngest cousin’s best friend since, like, kindergarten tried to go into the Air Force as well, but Basic uhhh, basically broke her from the knees down. So she got out before she really got in, but she’s doing really good and seems really happy even with the physio she still has to do. We laughed over all the bizarre/awful shit of Basic and did compare/contrasts of what it was like for when I went through versus her while the family stood back a few feet with vaguely concerned expressions. (Me: We had messenger bags when I went through, you? Her: Regular backpacks. Me: Oh okay, I heard trainees were hand-carrying stuff for awhile since the rumor mill said a trainee hung themselves with the bag strap. Her: Holy shit, yeah, I can see that. Everyone else: nervouslaughter.jpeg) She got a kitten while I was there and he is the sweetest boy and she’s gonna be such a good cat mom. :)
It was also wonderful to just drive around my home town and see what’s changed and what’s remained the same. Thanks to the absurd existence of the Santa Clarita Diet I’ve blabbed that’s where I’m from on here on several occasions, and it’s uncanny just how specific the natural light of SoCal is compared to other places I’ve lived. Also I did a walk-by of Yoki’s apartment from S1 because it’s an apartment I used to walk by all the time on my way to high school, and I was right! They did edit the front to look shittier! There’s still well-trimmed bushes and cherry trees and a nice fence like I remember!! Also, the couple jokes about how shitty Newhall is are much funnier now that I’ve seen the amount of gentrification they’re sinking into the downtown area. I mean, yeah, my street is just as ugly and old and not a place you’d want to walk ‘round at night as it was when I lived there, but downtown? Is adorable, what the hell.
AND MOUNTAINS. YOU GUYS. I missed mountains so goddamn much. I haven’t lived anywhere with mountains since ‘11 and I legit started crying on my drive back from the beach (the Pacific is so much more alive than the Atlantic, ah it was gorgeous!!!!) because there was a 40-mile stretch of farmlands and orange groves cradled in all these burnt-brown mountains. And even though my home town is in a valley it’s still full of all these steep hills and crazily curving roads and I really just enjoyed driving around grinning like a loon. I’ve got to get back on the West coast one day, oof.
I mean, it wasn’t all perfect of course. There was a strong undercurrent of worry for one of my uncles and their oldest son for personal stuff I’m not gonna splash out here. I was tempted to go track down a friend from high school who lived just up the street from the shitty apartment I grew up in, but I knew it would have been an awkward mess and I just… didn’t want to force that on her or her parents by surprise. And even though I’d flown out with the full intention of not seeing my mom, I did end up doing lunch with her one day. I literally only agreed to that because when I told one of my aunts that, she braced herself against the kitchen counter and said, “Fuck, you’re gonna leave me with that?” And like, yeah, 100% guilt trip, but also 100% a justified reaction.
And speaking of her, it was so gratifying to have the (awkward, kind of embarrassing) conversations about my mom with all the other family members. They’ve only had her side of things for years and she is very, very good at playing the victim. I laid out my side of things and every single member of my family was like, “Oh, okay, yeah, you did yourself a solid.” One of my cousins straight up said I was the smartest one of us for getting out of the worst situation any of us grew up in on my own steam. And it was gratifying yeah, but also kind of astonishing, to have this conversation with so many different people who have all kinds of different familial relationships with her, expecting that I’d have to die on the hill of “I literally don’t have the energy and I live 2,600 miles away from her,” but that… didn’t happen. Everyone agreed. Everyone had their own negative but justified opinions of her. Everyone felt like they had to deal with her instead of just have her around as part of the greater SoCal family.
So, yeah. The lunch was rough, but it would have been so much worse if my aunt and uncle hadn’t agreed to come with. Yeah, she sent me 50 texts after that lunch with only a handful of grudging (necessary) replies from me. But I got through it, I got the one box of stuff left of pre-military stuff in her storage (that I’ve been paying for for eight years since hey, steady income who?) out and packed up for my uncle to ship for me. I got a new number/phone yesterday so I finally, finally can wash my hands of her desperately wheedling texts from new pre-paid phones every couple of months. I found some cute things at an antique shop I used to go to all the time as a kid. I had the wackiest sleep schedule because insomnia and jet lag and OTC sleep aids are a hell of a combo. I read a whole book for the first time in like six months and got a bunch of writing done!
And I have to keep saying this: it was so gratifying to be proved right over all this mom shit. I don’t want a competition, I don’t want horrible things to her, I just don’t want her in my life without excluding the rest of the family, and I feel like I’ve finally made the first steps towards that.
Also, while I was waiting for my plane to begin boarding my aunt texted me to wish me a safe flight and to tell me that my uncle had said saying goodbye to me had been like saying goodbye to one of their own kids. I just about started crying right there in the terminal. :’)
I’m not gonna read through all this because I’m sure I’ll get embarrassed, but all in all? Excellent trip, glad it wasn’t on fire while I was there, looking forward to seeing everyone again next summer. :)

The Whirlwind That Hit My Life
I finally have enough time and energy to sit down and share about my life exploding in a whirlwind. I would have before but, ya know, whirlwind. Ok, actually I did start writing it up a few days ago, but I didn’t get very far and it kinda looks like I wrote while my brain was all melty. Which I did. Hah. So here is the revised and updated version. It’s at least 10% less brain melty. ;)
Thursday was scheduled to be my day I packed to get ready for our SoCal trip I had done a few things the day before, but not as much as I had hoped. Packing is always a little complicated when you have health issues, and since I hadn’t been on a plane in several years I ended up spending a good hour of that scouring the TSA website to make sure I didn’t screw anything up.
On a normal day I take a nap. Thursday I was extra wiped because I hadn’t slept well the night before and trying to pack and figure things out just added to it. I tried to take an early nap to compensate, but it didn’t really work. Mostly I dozed.
It turns out it was a “good thing” I couldn’t sleep cuz I got back up earlier than planned and found Mom in the middle of our Internet being a Problem™
(The rest of the story is under the cut - it’s a little over 1000 words total)
I’m not entirely sure what things went wrong and when. I do know that Mom was trying to switch out the old modem for a new one, and that she had a customer service rep on the phone to help her. Should be simple right? Yeah, it probably should have been. It probably would have been if either Mom or I had remembered to make sure she knew the relevant passwords … and if the tech support person she got could keep the terms “modem” and “router” straight. If you are support tech for an internet provider you would think that’s a basic piece of knowledge you are required to have.
Mom had been on the phone for an hour when I joined in. It took two and a half hours to resolve after I started helping, and in the end it took first me, then my brother, to untangle the giant knot in the technology. (yup, I’m using real technical descriptions here)
Yeah, so by the time that was over my brain was pretty melty.
Except that’s not all. I had been pretty drowsy when I got back up. I had gotten a cup of coffee and was trying to figure out what was going on with Mom when I got a text. It was my best friend saying, “Hey, you know how my roomie and I are hoping to move? Well, we found a four bedroom and we were wondering if you want to join us? We need to know by Sunday and the move would be in thirty days.”
I wasn’t expecting to start seriously looking for moving opportunities for another year.
It’s all happening so fast because Mel and her roomie are dealing with having smokers living downstairs. They can’t open their windows or run their AC because the apartment fills with smoke. Not good when you live on the third floor and don’t react well to smoke. Their landlord said they could get out of their lease break fee if they put in the paperwork this weekend and give thirty days notice.
This resulted in a mad scramble in the few moments where I wasn’t actively playing IT Girl to see if I could afford to move now. Or afford to move into this living situation period. Oh yeah, and to make sure nothing was going to get screwed with my disability income.
Figuring out the last part took five phone calls over the course of the hour and a half we had before the offices closed, and then the hour they opened the next day before I left for the airport. Actually, we didn’t figure out exactly what the requirements were for sure until I was at the airport and about to get in line to go through TSA. Then we found out that it wasn’t going to be a problem anyway because we had added a fourth person to the mix so that dropped the rent low enough that I can just barely afford it.
Let’s recap where we are at this point because that was a lot of stuff all going on at once: I hadn’t slept well the night before, I’d spent the morning working on getting ready for the trip the next day, my nap failed, I spent a couple hours playing IT Girl, and also was desperately trying to figure out if I could move. Oh, and one more thing, my sister-in-law brought the kids over for dinner that night. At least that part was awesome even if it did add to the over all exhaustion levels.
Also - I hate making phone calls. Haaate it. Let’s just say I was very, very thankful for my anxiety meds.
This brings us up through Friday morning at the airport. Travel is hard for me because of my various health problems and having this all go down in the twenty four hours prior to leaving did not help in the slightest. I might have had a panic attack in the middle of going through TSA. Ok, I did have a panic attack. Thank the stars for my Mom and for, ya know, meds. Also? Coffee. Coffee helps many things.
I still don’t know for sure if it’s going to happen. The rest of the weekend was full of texts sent back and forth in-between family time and sleeping whenever I had a chance. All four of us have our applications in, and we are just waiting to find out if we can put the deposit down and if there are going to be any other complications. It’s first come based on deposit not application - and you can’t put the deposit down until you have a provisional acceptance based on your application. They don’t have to have the full background check done first I think, but they do have to have had a chance to review the applications and a couple of the basics.
We were hoping to find out yesterday but that didn’t happen because apparently one of the other girls hadn’t gotten her app in until last night. So I might find out tomorrow, or we might have to wait until Friday. If it all works out money is going to be tight, but when the government thinks you can live off $750 a month*, yeah money is pretty much always going to be tight.
I’ll let you all know as soon as I know ;) Lots more to share about the trip itself, but that can wait for a different post. Several different posts actually. I generally try to keep my posts shorter than this one turned out lol
*The current maximum payment for SSI for a single person Also - they have crazy rules that make things really tricky about using and saving your money. It’s a nightmare. At least I have something to live off of but yeeeesh.

So i’m going to do one of those obnoxious why i love Taylor so much posts, even though I hate putting myself on blast and feel cringey, but it’s almost 2am and she’s still meeting fans in Nashville (at like 5am) so it’s not like she’s going to see it ever.
Anyways I’ve been listening to Taylor’s music since Fearless.  I actually even made a facebook post about it back when I still made obnoxious facebook posts all the time back in 2008 when I first got a Facebook cause I was a freshman in high school.  Because Taylor is 4 years older than me she usually releases music that I need right when it’s relevant to my life.  I was 15 when Fifteen came out and there was a boy I had a crush on who’s name was Drew and honestly her entire work just fit so well into my life.  It was on my ipod and i listened to her song religiously and whenever I would go on walks with my dog she was one of the artists playing.  Fearless is an excellent song to walk out at night and look up at the stars to just in case you were wondering.
Speak Now came out my junior year of high school back when Taylor and the SF Giants coincided with making people in the Bay Area happy in October.  (But tbh i don’t really care about baseball and found the giants hype obnoxious), but the Taylor hype I was all for.  Speak Now was that album it had Dear John which honestly if I was going to pick a favorite it’s def in the top 10 cause as Alana Haim says “Just listened to taylor swifts song “dear john”… That bitch has huge balls.  FUCK YOU JOHN MAYER”.  The part where she says shining like fireworks over your sad empty town does something to my soul and honestly the music and the emotion and ughhhhhh she’s trying to kill me.  The songwriting on the whole album just kills me and the fact that she wrote the whole album by herself just proves that she can do literally anything.  It’s empowering to know how much work she put into that album.  Also junior year of high school was when my older sister left for college and I couldn’t drive myself to school cause I didn’t have my license (tbh i can never spell that word) and I walked home from school a lot and you can tell this was blasting.  Also junior year was when I kind of had a life crisis of what to do for college and life and I just threw myself into the drama department and was a part of 3 plays in one year partially so I would stay after school and my parents could pick me up at the end and partially cause i was so confused by school and my anxiety that being a part of a theater production made me feel like a part of something.  And I literally always and forever want to be a part of any group.
Now for everyone’s favorite album Red.  God people are really not kidding when they say this album is the best.  I mean every single track is that track.  It came out during my first year of college.  I went away to SoCal for college and nobody from my hometown went to my school and I had gone to school with the same people from k-12 and honestly I was so lonely.  My campus was a commuter campus and everyone went home on the weekends and I couldn’t fly home and I didn’t have a car so I joined a sorority cause they did things on weekends, I heart being part of a group and instant friends.  And man was that the best life decision ever.  I joined the most chill group of people and I got my Big in October and on the car ride from Big/Lil reveal over to our dinner my GBig played Everything Has Changed and the whole album and it was just so wonderful and amazing and fit so freaking perfectly with my life.  I had no romantic things happening like ever, but I did go through a major life change and it was just so good.  And then when I went home over thanksgiving and christmas break my best friend also loved the album so we just listened to Red on repeat until i knew every single word and we sat in the car and talked like we had just seen each other yesterday even though it was almost 3 months and it was like I had seen her yesterday.  She’s been my best friend since kindergarten and even if we don’t talk in like 6 months, I see her in person and it’s like she was just in my car the day before talking about whatever.  Anyways this whole album was the key to my first few years of college to get away from the loneliness and the aching of trying to figure out how to live with no parents and it being miserable and magical at the same time.
Then we get to 1989 and my 3rd year of college.  This is when I had finally moved in with my best friends instead of living with randoms and my whole life became so much better because they took care of me and I had a car so i had more freedom and they took me out and I was officially part of their little group and I felt like I actually knew what I was doing with my life for once (did not last long, but it was there for a bit).  And it was just the pop hits album that I needed.  The change from country to pop fit into my life so well and I was so much happier and the album was happy, but you could tell came from a place of knowing about that anxiety and fear, but kept pushing through.  Like all of Taylor’s albums it just fit into my life.  It was the soundtrack of drives to LA and to parties and pregaming and formals and hikes and walks around campus and to class.  It was joined with Haim’s album on a playlist on my phone called HaimSwift and it was played on my 8 hour drive from NorCal to SoCal at least 3 times that year when I drove to school, when I drove back for break and then back to school again.  There’s also a Noah + The Swift for Noah + the Whale and Taylor Swift.  They are both wonderful playlists of my favorite artists.  This is when I found out that Haim the band that I had discovered and fell in love with at Outside Lands the summer prior was going to be touring with Taylor, but unfortunately on in LA when I wasn’t going to be there and not in NorCal at an expensive stadium after I had spent all of my money on pasts and wine in Italy on my study abroad trip.
And then Taylor went on a break, well a longer than 2 year break and in that time I graduated and moved back home and my grandpa passed away and I found a job (not the one I wanted, but you know it paid and I got to stay at home with my parents and my family during a rough time).  And then I applied to the Disney College program and I got accepted in Anaheim and life was better because I got to move back to SoCal where I wanted to be and work at the literal dream location and have housing and see where life would take me.  And so I moved back to SoCal and I started this program and I fell more in love with Disneyland and the people I was in the program with (love being part of a group) and then stayed on after it ended and finally got an apartment and started being a “real adult”.  It was a strange time, but a fun time.  I got to explore the parks, I visited my friends in Chicago, I worked a lot and then from the silence Taylor Swift came back.  I was thrilled about the new album and the experience.  See I have been on tumblr with my blog @megansalphabet(actually the name was meganislameness but that is a little controversial so it got changed) since 2010 my junior year of high school and also when Speak Now came out.  But during the “drought” I actually started following a lot of Taylor Swift blogs cause I was missing her music and her presence and so once the news about rep dropped I was hooked.  From the early days of people fighting about if it was a dragon or a snake and then what kind of snake and through the whole build up and music videos and easter egg hunting and the experience of being in that group and having other people freak out about the same things that I was, was so thrilling and exciting.
And finally on a day when I worked until 2:45 in the morning the album came out.  And so even though I had already pre-ordered a CD, it was not at my apartment yet so I went to Target and bought my magazines and read the lyrics while listening to the album and spent the whole day listening to the album 3 times.  Then once the tour announcement came I decided no more waiting about ya girl is finally gonna see my idol and so I told my mom what i wanted for an early christmas present and I watched the music video and I bought some sweatpants and a sweatshirt and a bag and a keychain and I said this is the era that I’m going to see Taylor Swift live I don’t care who’s going with me, but I am going no matter what.  And I did.  I got a second job, I went to Seattle and I had been working at 2 jobs for almost 2 weeks on the most perfect May day I got off work and drove to Pasadena, picked up my friend and some tacos from the train station and parked at the Rosebowl parking.  We walked a trek to the stadium and got some drinks and found our seats.  We watched Charli XCX and watched the ASL translator translate Boys and we learned how to sign Boys and then we met up with my sister who was also at the concert and got some more drinks and some pretzels because I had a craving and my friend is the best.  And then we went back to our seats and had the most incredible concert experience ever as Taylor Swift serenaded us the whole evening.  Also Selena Gomez and Troye Sivan showed up?!?!??!!?!  Also she sang All To Well acoustic in front of us like we were so close to the B stage and Dancing With Our Hands Tied on the guitar and I just about died like 20 times even though I had already seen a instalive of a girl from the first night of the concert in Glendale and pretty much knew what was going to happen.  But it didn’t matter because this was the concert that i was at next to Taylor and my best friend and oh wow.
And now Lover is fast approaching and I no longer work 2 jobs or at Disneyland and I still don’t really know what I want to do with my life and I’m still probably working too much (say hello to the past 3 sundays that I was supposed to be off and then got a call at 6am asking if I could come in, yay overtime pay? boo 6 days).  But I’m getting closer to figuring out what I want and who knows maybe I’ll go back to school and become a teacher because that’s always kind of been a secret dream of mine, but they get paid so little and grad school is expensive.  But shaping young minds seems so fulfilling and worthwhile.  Join me in my next existential crisis for that debate.
Anyways the point of this is that Taylor has always been there for me through all of the questioning and the confusion and the late night walks with my dog at the creek looking up at the stars and the happy times and the sad times and honestly there is a song for every single mood that i’ve had.  And even though I’m 25 and have never had a romantic relationship (not sure I want one or if i’m just afraid of pursuing one) I’ve always had her songs to stay with me through it all.  And this post is a mess and now it’s 3am and thank goodness I don’t have work tomorrow, but that nap did mess up my sleep schedule and my computer is at 18% and it’s probably time for bed.  Also Taylor if you ever do read this sorry it’s a mess, but I really do appreciate all that you’ve done even if I never get to meet you and tell you that.
