I'm gonna be real, it's been a really awful couple days due to three things. My cat got sick and I had to rush her to the vet. Turns out she's perfectly fine but my wallet isn't and likely won't be for a while. That leads to the second thing. A friend owed me $50 and said he'd pay me back this month or next. I asked if he could send back $20 in the next few days and he blocked me. So that's fun. Having to budget everything all over again while marking that off completely. Now that's not too bad but things got topped off with the third thing. While dealing with all this, I got a phone call. A friend who had been sick for a while passed away. There's been a lot of Baldurs Gate 3 during the past 24 hours with me just going full murderhobo out of frustration.

That's rough. On the bright side it only cost you $50 to find out somebody in your life is a terrible human being and you don't need to invest in them anymore

True. Just be nice if I could afford that even on a good day. I'm just tired.
