@thegodwhocums I'm only on night two of my seven nights of Dionysos so far but I've been able to just Sit with this more than I have been with things in quite a long time. Perhaps this is what will bring me back into my groove, perhaps not. I'm feeling relaxed and open minded about it, which is nice.

I got a huge water bottle that can hold all my water for a day (85 floz/2.5 L), and suddenly it’s been so easy to get all my water each day... I didn’t realize that needing to refill my other water bottle was such a barrier lol. I’ve been so hydrated for the last three days, and off to a great start today already too! Yesterday I even drank some extra water. 

I also lowered my step goal to 8,000 this week, and have hit that a few times by getting in little walks. I’d always wanted to keep that at 10,000 since that’s the “magic number,” and I’d figure that if I could get 8k then I could get 10k. But that logic hasn’t been workin out for me. 🙃

Yay for making goals more attainable!

what did you say to them to get them to listen?

It begins with fireworks.

On the first day of June. In a public park. Two hours before sundown.

In the handful of years she's lived here, she's noticed the ostentatious displays of patriotism kicking off earlier and earlier. Usually, she can let it slide. But on their second lap around the trail, a poorly aimed bottle rocket goes whizzing past their faces in a screaming flash of light, missing them by a hair's breadth, and Logan gets all — scary. And cool. And scary.

He scans around, immediately zeroing in on the two culprits and his entire posture changes. Millie watches with a mute delight as he strides over like a grizzly bear and chews them out, poking one hard enough in the chest that he stumbles back and crushes a box of snappers underfoot.

They say, Okay, man, Jesus, and the third lap passes without incident.

On their fourth lap, another rocket — expertly aimed — explodes at their feet. Gravel sprays in all directions. Logan begins to take off again, but this time, Millie puts her hand on his shoulder and insists, let me. So, with a grumble and wave, he lets her.

She's been wordsmithing a few choice threats she's excited to try out, but as she approaches, something Happens. The last thing she remembers is the two sparking their lighter at the end of an unlit fuse while looking up at her. Then, the drone of cicada wings thundering in her ears. The taste of iron coating her mouth. Her vision going snowy. Blackout. Silence.

When she comes to, the men are staggering away, holding one another up by their shirt collars. The side of one's neck is shiny, cerebrospinal fluid dripping from his ears, while the corners of the other's mouth gather pink foam. As Millie bends and reaches to collect the bottle rockets they've left behind, a fat coin of blood splatters against the back of her hand. Her nose gushes from both nostrils.

From somewhere behind her, she hears Logan's footsteps and him asking, What did you say to get them to listen?

Millie wipes her nose with the back of her hand and gives him the fireworks. With a small smile, she offers, "Asked nicely?"

They share a look.

He's not stupid; he knows better than to buy whatever shit she's selling — but what is she supposed to say? That she blacked out and whipped their brains into a meringue for the simple crime of being obnoxious in the park? Please. Logan seems nice. She'd hate to spoil their tentative friendship with the horrors this early on.

"I kinda wanna leave now, though. That whole thing totally killed my vibe. Also, this shirt's going to be fucked if I don't get a tissue soon."

Tried to make créme brulée today. Accidentally burnt it too much. This body is a blessing AND a curse.

Can You Walk for 30 Days Without Taking a Comparison Picture?

I recently completed a 30-day steps challenge, committing to walk 10,000 steps daily. What made this a true challenge for me was that there were no breaks, so for 30 days straight, I walked. The first question almost everyone asked me was, “Where’s the before and after picture?” But there isn’t one. I didn’t start this challenge with the intention of comparing my ‘before’ and ‘after.’ Although…
