I promise it's the final "sad" post – I'm going back to sharing the normal sexy stuff after this! Can't wait to finally post the pics I really enjoyed making until got hit by a bunch of personal issues!
Speaking of which, I've been doing some acupuncture (ouch), having massages (ouch), got a fresh air pump with a HEPA/carbon filter for my room (yay), changed the lamps (discovered through my phone's camera I had flickering lights for years, it's not noticeable to human eye but was probably why my eyes hurt and blur all the time), also went on a diet (suddenly a blood test showed high cholesterol while it was fine half a year ago), and started walking outside, so hopefully the measures will suffice to keep me from feeling like trash for a few more years. Lesson learned about spending 24/7 holed up at home, working for 18 hours a day while sleeping no more than 5 hours without any airflow. Unfortunately, it takes years before it starts showing on your health and you figure out what caused the issue... but better late than never, at least it wasn't too late.
The Absurd World
(Lyrics by Wolfy)
In the face of chaos and despair
There's only one thing left to share
It's the knowledge that our lives are absurd
And yet, we keep moving forward like a herd
We strive for meaning while our fate's unknown
Caught between two worlds, we're never home
The universe is vast and cold and dark
But still, we try to find some spark
The Absurd World, it's where we dwell
The Absurd World, our holy hell
The Absurd World won't set us free
The Absurd World, the mystery
The Absurd World is here to stay
The Absurd World, day after day
The Absurd World, but so am I
The Absurd World until I die
You could say I'm a pessimist
Just accepting life is a test
Or call me an optimist
For seeing beauty in the mess
But I prefer to be the absurdist
One who knows life isn't worth a bit
And yet, I still choose each day
To paint my own picture, add a little ray
So let's make art before the end
While there's time to twist and bend
Let's sing and dance and laugh and cry
Before we disappear into the sky
