pay no attention to the man behind the curtain

I started this blog because someone on the internet told me to.

I mean, technically they are a stranger. but I follow them on instagram, and have for a few years now, so I guess the relationship is parasocial at best.

(note to self: list of parasocial relationships I have as future blog post?)

anyway … someone on the internet said I should start a blog, and I said “wow, what a great idea! a place to publicly post my innermost thoughts for 1-6 people to see!”

my therapist says I should journal more, but i’ve never considered a lifestyle where I am not overtly expressing myself to the general public, so here we are. I have a lot of thoughts, and i’m sure my partner loves to hear every little thing that crosses my mind, but I think he deserves a break sometimes. so now it’s your problem.

i’m hoping this isn’t a one-or-two-off thing. I do actually need to be journaling more. and, let’s be honest, I have a lot to say. I have a lot of thoughts. I could write a million and one theses about every thought that passes through my head. my therapist says this is fine, probably. I suppose we’ll see.
