just in case it isn't blindingly clear to everyone


  1. i have severe mental illness.  i should be going to therapy, but i'm so overworked at work that i don't have the time to take off to go to see a therapist.
    1. because therapists have to work normal hours too, because we're not so horrible to make them deal with crazy people when they should be with their families.
    2. and no, i can't just take time off from work.  because i have to have money for food, duh.
  2. i promise i'll go to therapy in the next six months.  i think i can schedule things out so that that all works.  i really hate where i'm at right now, and it's a bad place.
    1. partially because there are really only two options at this point:
      1. i kill myself in a probably messy manner, and ignore everything after that.
      2. i keep drinking and eating badly until my heart just decides to stab my brain with fat cells.
  3. i drink too much, because you can't just buy xanax at the store, but you can buy vodka, and for a short, fleeting moment, vodka can replicate the results of xanax, if you don't mind puking the next morning.
    1. if you drink propel water in the morning, you get to taste the super sweet not-sugar they use when you puke it up.
      1. it's kind of the best way to puke, if you're going to puke.
        1. but you probably shouldn't puke if you can, because that's kind of gross.
          1. and not a lot of fun to do, anyway.
      2. "oh!  this puke tastes like fake grapes! Yummy!"
  4. i do have more stories i'd like to tell.  i want to put them in order and send them out.  i can't.  see point 1 if you're confused why this is the case.
    1. it's this whole thing of wanting to write, and then doing so, and then hating everything i've written, and then there's a battle of trying to rewrite the bad things, and write new not-bad things, and then just giving up and deleting everything except for the notes, and going back three weeks later.
    2. over and over and over again.
    3. do you want spoilers?
      1. the next part is essential to the over-arching love story i bolted on after i wrote the first part.
      2. but it's zero sex, and kind of feels super contrived at points
      3. so i'm not sure people will like or care about it
      4. so i have to make sure it works, right?
      5. because if it doesn't, then no one will want to read the next-next part, which does have sex.
        1. right?
        2. checking....
        3. ok, no, not actual sex, but that's totally got the kink going on, so maybe it's ok?
        4. crap.  i hit backspace and fucked up the numbers.  how do i fix this?  return?
        5. nope.
      6. fuck

      7. shit.

      8. go backwards, you jerks!
      9. pretend this is now 4.4.  
        1. but why does this matter?  i don't really know any of you.  i'd be sad if Mr. Christopher or Mr. Veterinarian or Key (title unknown) didn't like it, but most of the other hundreds of people who show up in my "blog view count" thingy i don't know.
        1. so maybe i shouldn't care? and just do my own thing?
        2. but maybe you do care?  and you're just as concerned as me?
        3. and don't forget the Jesse who comments, who's Jesse as in Jesse from Sammy's Blog.
        4. Pikachu.
          1. why are you talking about pokemon, sammy?
            1. because sometimes i find pokemon pictures on tumblr and i forget that i'm old and gross and not like 12 again.
            2. and because i edited this post, so for this point to be at all relevant, i have to add something else.
              1. deal with it.
      10. but getting to the point, if i'm writing for me, why does anyone else's opinion matter?  it shouldn't, because i really just want to say what makes me happy.  because if i can't be happy with my own thoughts, what's going to happen to me?
      11. point 1.  point 4.1.
      12. so
    4. i want to write more stories.
  5. i'm really sorry i'm so fucked up.  i wish i were better at pulling my brain together and dealing with things like everyone else.  i wish i didn't immediately see the worst things that could ever happen if i do what i think is best.
    1. when you can only see horrors for all of your actions, it's hard to choose an action to take.
    2. i'm sorry if you sent me a message, and i saw it while so super super drunk, and then i responded with absolute nonsense.  i've been better at not responding drunk recently, but this past week has been hard.
    3. i wish i had a secret backup story i could pull out so people would be happy.
      1. i don't.
      2. sorry.
  6. i know some people will say nice things in the comments.  that's great, but you don't really need to.  pretty much any comment is fine for me.  i know that "did you know that orangutans are threatened by habitat loss brought on by the deforestation caused by palm oil farming?" is functionally the same as "i don't hate you, sammy.  i know you'll get better and write cool stuff again."
    1. but seriously, i'm so sad about the orangutans, but i can't call girl scouts "fucking monsters" because their cookies use palm oil.
      1. especially when i'm buying like 9 boxes.
        1. and because you shouldn't swear at little kids, because then it's all "you're the jerk" and you try to explain about the orangutans, but no one really wants to listen, and seriously, this is probably a bit advanced for even the parents you're shouting at.
          1. so.
            1. :(
    2. and thanks.  i'm trying my best, and i know i'm failing right now, but maybe next week, next month, next year, i'll sort shit out, and get into a better place, and we can all just perv out together.
      1. that'd probably be weird.
      2. we could just all apologize a bit, and then go have pizza or something.
        1. or, you know.  pizza.
          1. mandatory pizza.
            1. for everyone.
              1. everywhere.
                1. PIZZA
        2. now i kind of want pizza.

  2. did you know that the Platypus is venomous? No they don't have fangs hidden in that duck-bill, they've got them on their back feet.

    1. aren't they from australia? australia is like murder town for animals. i'm totally surprised koalas don't like explode into super powerful acid or something when touched.

      and i fixed the blog post to be more correct. sorry!

    2. More reading reveals that only the male is venomous, and it's not deadly, just incredibly painful.

      There is no need to be sorry. It wasn't my intent to get you to change your post, I was just being deliberately difficult and not answering the question you didn't quite ask. :)

      I can't help it. It's a habit at this point. Heck, I sometimes go for years without even telling my name to people I see on a daily basis.

      Jesse.

    3. "So, just to let you know, my brother poisoned your drink. No! Wait! Calm down! It's not a deadly poison, it's just going to hurt a lot! But think about it this way: it could have been a lot worse."

      i just don't know how animals in australia could be more jerks if they tried. i'm friends with bees, even. they don't mean to land on your arm, they're just kind of tired from doing bee things. but animals that are just needlessly poisonous? wtf?

      and i thought it was better to change it to be kind of half funny, half "i'm cool with everyone being however they want to be, because everyone should be cool and stuff."

      i mostly just want names so i can sort posts out in my head. my old dude neighbor knows me as "hey gal!" everytime i see him. "hey gal!" i know him as "old dude neighbor." sometimes, "damn it, old dude neighbor, you've slammed the door eight times in the last ten minutes. are you going in or out here?"

      love,
      sammy

    4. I used to know (well, not really know, but walk past on a daily basis) this guy who just called everybody "hey you". I'd walk by in the morning hand he'd yell out "Hey you" and wave, only with his accent it sounded more like "Hey Chew". So, for some reason that sounded good at the time I started doing it back to him the exact same way every morning, complete with my imitation of his accent.

      He'd smile and wave, and yell out "Hey Chew."

      I'd smile and wave, and yell back "Hey Chew."

      After a couple of months I get called into one of my bosses offices and I start getting some sort of "It's not ok to be a bigot" speech. I'm totally confused as to what's going on. You've probably guessed by now, but yes, somebody thought I was yelling out "Hey Jew" at random people and complained to my boss.

      Afterwards I went and talked to "Hey Chew" and told him the story and he laughed, and told me his name was actually Marian.

      I think there is a moral to that story, but I'm not good at morals.

      So I'll just say I thought it was pretty funny the way you had it the first time, and that I figured somebody who writes like you do was pretty cool already.

      I know your not really keen on compliments, but I'm not really good with "sorry", so now we're even.

      :)

      Jesse, as in Jesse who's not a venomous Australian.

    1. SO MANY THOUGHTS!

      a) i could have done without the mouse screams at the end. "reality" whatever, but as much as i know Tiny Mouse has to die to keep Fuzzy Fox alive, i don't really want to hear screams.
      b) i have seen gifs of that before, but never a full big explanation too. i just assumed "they hear scurries, and jump on them."
      c) but now i'm going to think of foxes as missle puppies.
      d) foxes are still super cute, though. i saw a thing about how the russians were able to breed pet-like foxes. that's pretty cool.
