It’s not even bad in the U.K. on the train ride from Manchester to Liverpool.

The U.K. is a beautiful country in many areas.

Or a train ride from London to Birmingham.
Or London to Brighton.

I'd find the countryside and the beaches beautiful. Not so much cities though.

I can understand that. Especially in what you call “council estates.”

Hackney is supposed to be pretty bad...but it’s still a heck of a lot better than East New York, Brooklyn.

I stayed in Wandsworth once.....not supposed to be that great, either. Lots of what we call “rowhouses.” Many of those are occupied by people on Benefits. But they are usually kept up pretty well. Wandsworth Road is somewhat dodgy, though. Rather like commercial parts of NYC.

It feels late.
But it is actually so early. Barely even 8 yet.

Sometimes I wonder if I'm too formal in the emails that I send to my superior... but well, since it's about work, being too formal is better than being too familiar, isn't it?

There's no such thing as being "too formal" in a business environment.

Trying to understand why a certain member left WP "for good" and the possibility he may return.

I'm thinking about another member who left and I hope she comes back. I've recently read her post in The Haven.

It’s interesting that my level of depression is displayed minimally in my everyday life. I might be pretty sure it’s going to be my last day (only thing that stopped me was my body demanding sleep before I had a chance to do anything without being observed) and still get up at my usual time, feed my dog, and take him for a walk of the usual length. I can seem all chipper (as much as I ever get, anyway) while surreptitiously glancing around the room for anything I could use to significantly harm myself. I don’t give the usual signs. No one knows how bad things are unless I tell them (and even then they don’t believe it’s actually that bad, because I’m still going about my life as usual).

I just can’t be “typical” about anything, can I? :lol:

I know someone who furiously types on their phone all day, and giggles. Two different text tones going off all day long. But when I text them I can wait up to six days for a response. They clearly have notifications turned off for texts from me. My last text, asking for an update on an important life event I was told we'd talk about, has been unanswered for three days now.

I'm giving up on this person. Wondering if I should text "nvm" to let them know that pretending not to notice they've ghosted me again, next time they are seeking attention and only then notice they haven't answered my text, isn't going to be accepted this time, or if I should wait it out and, out of morbid curiosity, see how long this one takes.

Sometimes days like today when I only really do one kind of thing are good days, too.

I seem to pressure myself to do all my things but today I had a heavy (stereotypically autistic) focus on art and things surrounding art and I feel relaxed and accomplished for that.

Just where is this feeling come from?
It happens from time to time, for how long I'm not sure. Maybe since as a child.

It usually happens in warmer afternoons. But it can happen more than that.
Whatever it is, it's affecting my sense of familiarity -- even if memories and thoughts contradicts it.

Funnily enough, I was working in the Wandsworth today. I used to live in Wandworth Road funnily enough but has had its change further down the road where the new Nine Elms tube station, that part looks completely unrecognisable in comparison to 20 years ago.

Reminds me, may even take a photo of it if I do happen to stop by there.
