    I think I figured out why I’ve been so extremely paralyzed by decision making the past week. It’s not the ear infection but the medication. I looked up the side effects and one of the lesser side effects listed was confusion. The timing of my irritability seems to line up with when I take the pills too. Only a few more days to go.

    Gonna go pick up a used PS5 controller today. Usually when I hang out with my friend that lives in the city, I cuddle her dog and watch her play fortnight. Now I can cuddle her dog and play along with her.

    I should be able to connect the controller to my computer too so I can still use it to play games even when I’m not chilling with my friend. Which is great because winter is coming and I don’t want to sit at a desk and play games. I want to make a cozy little gremlin nest and play games.

    Boxed stuffing has been on sale and I cannot stop buying it. I have eaten 10 boxes of stuffing in under 2 weeks. I have 6 more boxes left, and they will probably be gone by, like, next monday. I spice it up with california reaper slivers. I’m sure the 4 tbsp of butter per box is killing me, but I can’t bring myself to care, whether because it’s too good or I’m too depressed.

    When the sale first started, there was plenty of chicken, pork, turkey, and cornbread boxes at the store. Then the chicken ran out. Then the pork ran out. And I guess people just don’t want Turkey and Cornbread, and then I thought about it, and you know, turkey on thanksgiving really is just like, the biggest sham.

    Chicken is the superior poultry. Which is why it’s readily available nearly everywhere all the time. People like it, its good. Meanwhile, turkey gets the “it’s healthier but doesn’t taste as good,” label. Like, wtf actually wants turkey bacon over pork bacon. Or turkey slices on a sandwhich instead of ham, salami, pepperoni, roast beef, corned beef, or half a dozen other lunch meats.

    But once a year, families get together and really just insist and pretend this jumbo sized foul fowl really is just oh so delicious and totally worth the pain in the ass cooking time and work. Then the other 364 days of the year people drop the act and just get a rotisserie chicken when they want a full bird.
