Burn everything you love and burn the ashes

•  I've had some level of migraine/muscle tension/sinus pressure headache for over two weeks now. I had a lot of things I was going to get done, and barely accomplished any of them.
• Which means that in addition to being in pain, the Brain Raccoons have been frolicking around, singing their smash hit "You're not going to succeed at any of the plans you have, give up now". (The Brain Raccoons have terrible squeaky harmonies and are frequently off-key, but they're good at catchy terrible songs.)
• Because of this, I'm dolefully looking at my resume and Linkdin, wondering if I should polish them and start looking for a job back in the poisonous industry I fled. I keep telling myself that maybe a part-time job wouldn't be bad, I could still get the GCS media empire/Patreon going if I pushed myself.
• But hey, I haven't managed to get that going in the not-quite-a-year since I got out of the tech industry, so I'm totally fooling myself, I should sing along with the Brain Raccoons song.
• Mom's birthday is tomorrow. 
• The Stroppy One is down for a variety of reasons.
• My sleep is being wonky. I've had multiple nights where I'm not falling asleep until close to 5am. But I'm in too much pain or brain fog to accomplish anything during the time I'm awake. 
• I missed my big brother's birthday party due to migraine.

In short, I want to ascend to being Vampire Witch Queen already, live the eccentrically wealthy lifestyle I'd like to become accustomed to, and have thralls to carry out my wishes.

Although I have never had the pleasure of meeting you in person, I have read your work and followed you online for...years, since alt.gothic.fashion. You have always been an inspiration to me and you DO accomplish so much *even when you are having a rough time of things* You never fail at reaching out and offering support and encouragement to others. So I am offering it back to you. You do so much without even knowing you do. Be easy on yourself and remember there are those of us who can't wait to support you media empire and no matter how long it takes we will be so happy to do so :)
