Bad bot.

Say something different each time, and don't start the conversation on a bad note by talking about harming oneself. Please.

Unless people actually like this bot, then feel free to ignore me 🤷‍♀️

I got home this week to recover from surgery. So far I've been feeling better than I thought and could even grocery shop on my own. It was exhausting but very doable which is nice. I can also sit at my desk for 2-3 hours now so I can play some video games :) Time's going by very quickly because I have visitors every day and tomorrow my crush is coming over!! Exciting. I'm getting used to dilating and starting to incorporate it into my morning and evening routines. Peeing still feels weird because my brain hasn't caught up with the lack of urethra. My back and legs ache because I spent two weeks in the hospital bed but I expect that'll get better every day. The only annoying thing is that today heating and hot water went out in the whole building, luckily I showered with the last bit of warm water! Hopefully they can fix it tomorrow.

My patience is getting tested. I am sick again, probably sinusitis. This sucks. I wanna lift weights and meet people.

I counted in the new year surrounded by lesbians. It was fun.
