It's a sprain or strain of some sort. I'm not 100% sure what I did in specific this time around, but the general pain pattern is familiar enough that I can tell I put too much force on my hand for too long while my wrist was bent.

If I seem like I have a bad habit of spouting off knowledge with minimal provocation, it's because up until 2014 my background wouldn't have given you a whole lot of indication that I'm any more than just a basic entry-level guy that doesn't have the talent to do anything important, and getting people to take me seriously required making a demonstration that I know what I'm talking about.

I... kinda have the opposite problem these days. People see Google on my resume and assume that I'm a Silicon Valley type. Good grief, no, I'm not. >_< I can't stand Silicon Valley culture. It stresses me out. Stop asking me to move back to California! I moved out for a reason!

> dad still hasn't gotten rid of the pineapple

also, my period started yesterday. fun times, now i get to deal with bleeding absolutely everywhere. eugh.

unfortunately, there's a two-year waiting list for HRT in the UK.

I was feeling very discouraged yesterday by that interaction.
I emailed my commercial acting coach about it.. As he was the one who referred me to that agency and said that I was a very capable actress..

My coach said not to worry about the "whys" and that it's their loss...

Literally every single audition I've been to lately, I've received callbacks for.. A couple I even made it as far as to the chemistry read and the "avail"s.. And not to toot my own horn or anything, but I do believe I am a capable actress and I know I have the skills it takes to be successful. I just need an agent who can get me into the right doors.

Oof. Periods suck!
I've been in need of some new cloth pads myself... My laundry was stolen a while back that had my cloth pads in there. >:T Now I'm using my menstrual cup for periods.. and I mean, it's fine, but I prefer sleeping with a pad on at night.

I hope you treat yourself to whatever you want this week c:
I find that when I treat myself to anything I want while I'm on my period, it makes it a little more bearable. >w<

mum's a bit finicky abt me possibly changing my name to percival, but it's what i like. plus it's my eighteenth and i like the name, dangit.

i've got milkshakes, so that's fine.

Well, unless it's not taking effect until the start of the museum's fiscal year (which I think is July?), it's probably pretty safe to assume that my request for a raise (what would have been my only one in 4 years) has been denied.

Jammed finger and broke a couple nails today. And very nearly tried to rip off a nail in the whole finger jamming process so my right middle finger is just a lot of dull pain (mostly at my knuckles and only when I actually put pressure on them) right now... So that was fun.

Eeeee! Reading that makes my fingers hurt D:
Are your hands healing any?

[Kaderin Triste]

Thankfully nothing was really too badly injured. My nails will need filing down and my middle finger is a bit sore in the "feels like a bruise" sense, but I'll survive.

[Biomecha]

Can't pinpoint what's triggering these migraines.

[Espy]

Gods why. Why am I so bad at showing any sort of affection? And why do I stop myself from trying it? All I ever do is just sit here and hope to high heavens that they will say something first, something that I can joke about, deflect as I always do.

[Stabbsworth]

having to switch keyboards on my phone yet again because gboard has suspicious permissions. (camera access, for one. what kind of fucking keyboard needs camera access?)

[Kaderin Triste]

Ugh....dealing with unpleasant gas pain...which was my own fault for drinking the questionable milk, but still...did it have to hit me now, while I'm at work instead of when I get home and can lay down and not have to wear restrictive clothing?
*whines because I am a big baby*

My dad's been hallucinating thanks to the extremely strong pain meds he was given so we're taking him off those for now.

It's been one hell of a day.
