15 things I'd like for my 34th birthday IF (and only if) you want to get me a gift

There is no pressure or expectation that any get me anything, but if you do want to get me something and you're looking for ideas, here are 15:

  1. Sponsor a C2E2 costume (just give me a budget!)
  2. Gift card for Partners in Crime Bookshop (Chicago's new mystery- and romance-centric bookstore that only had its grand opening the day I drafted this post, so I don't have a handy link, but I hope the Partners in Crime Bookshop website will have one soon!)
  3. Hinge+ or HingeX subscription (I don't think there is an easy way to gift this to me, but Venmo always works lol)
  4. Gift Certificate to Bettye O Day Spa (a spa in Hyde Park that I haven't tried yet!)
  5. Out of Line (a party game from the makers of Cards Against Humanity--NB: I did send this as an idea so some family members, so you may need to do some checking to see if they already bought it)
  6. Call 911! (a party game--NB: I did send this as an idea so some family members, so you may need to do some checking to see if they already bought it)
  7. Trivillennial (trivia game--NB: I did send this as an idea so some family members, so you may need to do some checking to see if they already bought it)
  8. Who Can Do It? (a party game--NB: I did send this as an idea so some family members, so you may need to do some checking to see if they already bought it)
  9. Svaha gift card (or I can give you specific product ideas, but they can be expensive!)
  10. Sparkly Dice Vintage Style 1950s Dress with Pockets, size TC2 from the Legging Lass (password protected site: BABYYODA)
  11. Love is Blind (silly card game)
  12. Some of Y'all Don't Know What Happened to Earl and It Shows T-Shirt, 3XL, Heather Blue
  13. Goose Creek E-Gift Card (or I can give you general scents or specific candles I like)
  14. Tyler Hoechlin autograph at C2E2 (my friend Kimi has acquired it, but I think still looking for folks to split it!--also I think I'd want either Three Things That Cannot Be Long Hidden Quote Teen Wolf Dictionary Fan Art or this insanely inappropriate candle called Smells Like Getting Bent Over the Back of Derek's Camaro Scented Candle, sea salt and orchid OR clean cotton scent (unless ocean aquatics comes back in stock) for him to sign, though, perhaps I'd want the candle even without his signature and especially as it's probably inappropriate to ask him to sign it)
  15. A different candle from the Etsy store FlareForTheDramatic (some ideas include Smells Like Staying Up Until Past 3 a.m. Reading Smutty Fanfiction Again, Smells Like Carnality in the Carriage with Colin, and Smells Like Getting Railed on the Rink by Ilya and Shane)

I'm angry

I'm angry. And I don't (at the moment) want to be talked out of it. I struggle, often, with expressing or even just sitting with my emotions. I feel like even the photo I chose for this post was more reserved or toned down than how I feel.  But, this is my trying. I'm not going to time this post, just going to write until I feel done, whenever that may be. In this post, I'm going to focus on the anger I feel around my dad and my dad's death. Though, don't get me wrong, I'm also angry about a lot of things going on in my city, in my country, and in the world. My dad chose alcohol over me and my brother. There is no way around this fact. Yes, when I am less angry, I can be more reasonabl and recognize that addiction is a disesase and he didn't have control over it. But, right now, I want to be angry. I want to get to be angry. I want to get to feel my feelings. I don't want to rationalize, I don't want to be reasonable, I don't want to be fair....
