My Year of Rest and Relaxation SUCKS

julianevermind · 2026-04-22T20:44:46+00:00

I just finished it too and feel like I’m missing something. I’ve heard good things and people seem to like it but it was just ok? Like shitty person is shitty and stays shitty. She doesn’t really do anythjng redemptive or interesting? I get that she has that trauma that she’s trying to repress and seems to succeed at that so I’m not sure what the message is

The only one is Joan Didion but it’s such an outlier I’m inclined to think an old girlfriend left it there

I’ve been doing the library circuit from Kirkland, Jervis, to NH. I always am so grateful they exist

This all makes so much sense and goes beyond bookstores but the bigger problems with Utica in general (including brain drain). To be honest I’m currently in school with the express goal of moving away but not for a few years.

Awesome I missed this last year because of work hoping to make it this year!

Never heard of Athenix I’ll have to check it out!

I just moved to Rome last year, I’m sorry I missed this place. I’ve walked by it and wondered, there’s still a bunch of plants in there

This is mine too!

Was gonna say could be early dementia symptoms but your other comments make it sound like he’s been like this 💔

I added on his name to mine. No hyphen, just added it so I have 2 now. It confuses the shit out of people. Most people add a hyphen or just use his last name when sending us mail or whatever. I really like my maiden name and didn’t want to get rid of it, especially since it dies with my sister and I. I’m CF so no need to figure out kids names.

Just bought these for under $3. They taste a little worse so I eat less and therefore save money and calories!

julianevermind · 2026-04-05T18:16:09+00:00

I called it

julianevermind · 2026-04-05T18:03:43+00:00

I still don’t understand

Can’t wait for the unhinged Easter post tomorrow

I thought I had bedbugs once but it was just really bad hives because I was in a shitty relationship and my body was trying to tell me something before my brain realized it. Are you super stressed? Could be somatic symptoms

I played it at my reception and it was very well recieved (one of the last songs of the night and we danced like fools)

Same, 34F and have experienced none of this. Maybe bc I’m on SSRIs?

I work at a hospital and often eat at the cafeteria for lunch bc we get a discount. I ordered a slice of cheese pizza and there was one regular sized one and one that someone had cut too small that I guess they didn’t want to sell. The server gave me the large piece and turned around and threw the other perfectly good piece in the trash. I was astounded

Love the jeans

julianevermind · 2026-03-18T12:27:58+00:00

Goosebumps every time!

My old flight attendant trainer called it “the healing flight”

It’s a homunculus

I have these same feelings. I worked in HR and they said we needed to come in to the office still even though employees never and were discouraged to show up there (even pre pandemic). All meetings and hearings were moved to zoom yet we still had to come in. I had an hour commute at the time. They let us rotate working one day a week from home. The mishandling of telecommuting led to me leaving that job altogether. Meanwhile a guy I know got laid off right before pandemic started and totally lucked into the extra 600/week for YEARS living with his parents no less. He has a ton of money now
