Yeah, I’ve had to learn the hard way that sometimes taking a bus three towns over to go to an actual store is sometimes cheaper and easier in the long run than buying junk online. Which sucks. What’s the point of corporate dystopia if it’s not even convenient?

I pulled four all nighters this past week to get my finals done. Now I’m done with the semester, have a 4.0 GPA, and feel vaguely like I’ve been hit by a train.

I, too, am a real-life D&D character.

Omg you guys are my people! I had no idea this was an autism thing.

I go everywhere with a backpack containing:

• Laptop
• Charger
• Phone charger
• 2 TB hard drive
• Cord adapter
• Earplugs
• First aid kit
• Moleskin patches
• Hi-vis vest
• Wet wipes
• old iPod
• Pencil sharpener
• Daily planner
• Diary
• Pencil case containing colored pens for my color-coded planner, ink fineliners in various thickness, pencils and brush pen
• Water bottle
• Emergency meds
• Current book
• Sewing kit
• Umbrella
• Extra pads
• Shopping bag

I also wear a fanny pack containing:

• Smaller wet wipe packs
• Narcan
• Multitool
• Pens
• Dried tinder conk fungus and a pack of matches in case I need emergency tinder
• Fentanyl test strips
• Earbuds
• Portable battery to charge my phone with
• Carabiner
• Bus passes for two different states
• Hair ties
• Pen flashlight

Given that I have scoliosis, I do occasionally leave the house without the backpack because I guess not being in pain matters a little…
