In Which one cannot build a nice house in rocky unstable foundations

Good morning, dear reader of this post, my friend. How are you, in this first week of July? I hope your last month went well? For me, because of the college work being more demanding alongside other woes, I cannot say I particularly thrived in those two last ones, neither in May, or June. It is not fault of Winter or Fall, and I will not take people blaming the best weather of the year for the faults of some assignments and deep loneliness. I am sad that, in June, I could not do much to aknowledge Midmas, but it is not fault of this quirky little thing I have tried to make it happen with me, and again, I won't take people blaming my longing for Christmas. And if anything, there is July, we will see if I will do a postcard or something. Anyway, the weather is lovely, and even with my financial concerns, I cannot say exactly that June will end on a sad note or downward trend. Just turbulence. If anything, it was also the blog's anniversary on the 8th! That is wonderful, isn't...

In Which We Have the Lombardic Guy

Good morning, dear friend, reader of this post, and I wish you a happy Friday! How are you, today? I am okay, I’d say. The past few ones were bad days, alas. Very bad. I am recovering, thankfully, but I had to go through some emotional and stress hell. I don’t know what to say apart from this. I don’t desire to submit you, my friend, to another session of lamentation. I understand this is my blog, but I don’t want to test the patience of my friends. I truly appreciate you all, for being here and considering giving a bit of your time to read what I have to say. It is a bit daunting, true, when I think about it. Some days, alas, I have nothing to say but stuff on my woes. Let it be missing a dearest of friends, wishing we could chat some more, wishing the friendship to survive for ever. Let it be family conflicts, and the bad memories mixed with the good. Ah… how unhappy one can be! Catherine II of Russia used to say “we ought to be happy and smile, this is the way to endure life and move on!”. It is quite a mission, somedays. 




I am happy to say I worked on a drawing, today! Made out of my thoughts, I drew a ginger guy, a Lombardic man. I guess I was mildly influenced by the music I was listening to. Instagram today recommended me some Disco Italiano. The song that played is deviously catchy, and so, we have the italian ginger guy with very voluminous hair. It is indeed fun how things go, I mentioned it before, that I thought I was done with Instagram, a year and some months ago. Now, I use it as much as before the grand crash of 2020-2021. I wonder what does it take for a social media to take off. Many have tried to fill the gap that almost was left on vacuum when Twitter and Instagram faltered, to no avail. Those two keep existing. Impressive.
I should visit grandma, tomorrow. My aunt is there with her, much to my dismay. I used to be fond of her, until I decided she was using me as a listener to her complaints about the family. I don’t want to be dragged into any conflicts. As much as it is nice to have someone to talk to, she is not someone I can trust, having her own agenda. Well… what else is there to be said? I have been staying at home the past few ones. Cannot order food for lunch atm, or I don’t know when I’ll resume doing this. Had a huge conflict with my mother precisely on my spending habits. What I have eaten the past few days, is just my basic breakfast food. I don’t know if she has gotten any frozen meal, which I’d appreciate. I ought to mention the fact my surgery, before given as something that would happen, now is being called into question. On that, for now, I can say that I… understand the benefits, but I don’t know if I am on the headspace for such procedure. I at least have to painfully think some more on this. With this being said, because this post is getting bigger than I was anticipating, I must wrap things up.
Again, I wish you a happy Friday, and weekend! I most likely will return next week with more thoughts, ideas, and so on. Until then, see you real real real real soon! Au revoir!
