First of all, happy pi day, Dean Winchester's favourite holiday! \o/
*gets shot*
Terrible jokes aside, it's been a good, although quite intense day. I had a "very productive" (according to my therapist), "very exhausting" (according to me) therapy session. When I left I was feeling both restless and tired, so I wandered around for a bit. I saw a lovely dress in the window of a shop, and I decided to see if they had my size. The shop was empty, and the owner and I started a conversation about the weather, the Carnevale, one thing led to the other, and at one point she asked me what my job was. I told her about mom and me being her legal guardian, and she gasped and told me her little brother has been in a coma for the last fifteen years. Now, it's hard to explain, but these situations are very rare, so even if it sounds really weird, we were both ecstatic to meet another human being who was going through the same ordeal. She showed me pictures of her brother on her phone, we talked cat scans, surgeries, meds, what her doctor says, what my doctor says, we exchanged stories and we agreed on everything. Empathy is fine and all, but nothing beats personal experience. We hugged, and I promised to drop by next time I'll go to the hospital.
And I also bought the dress, because it looks awesome and it was really cheap. *_____*
Sorry for the selfie quality, but I was too tired to set up my camera with the timer and all. The fedora is there because I looked in the mirror and my thought process went like this: "this looks so awesome, you know what would make it even more awesome? a fedora! fedoras are awesome!"
Yes, I grew up on bread and Indiana Jones. :D
And the Kingdom Hearts decal for my Nintendo 3ds arrived this morning, from Latvija. How cool is that? I wish I could go back in time and tell baby!Nausicaa, with her penpals and letters that took weeks to arrive, that in a few years we'll be able to shop in Riga from our living room. So cool!
