Once Upon a Spell
Sometimes it’s easier to pretend like everything’s okay, even if you realize it isn’t. Friends aren’t always going to support you, sometimes websites lie about the prices of your shoes, and occasionally people are horrid, no matter how nice they or their words seem. These realizations are what separate us from others. Those of us with disorders, illnesses, issues, or so-called trauma see these happenings a lot more than our neurotypical friends or enemies. This is due to our hormones and brains seeing more, analyzing more, and just generally finding more than the norm. Our brains are wired differently, and are differently capable than brains of average human beans. This isn’t a bad thing, it simply means a normal giving me advice sounds like someone throwing water on the ocean. Like “just be happy”, okay Karen totally didn’t even think of that. MY BRAIN DOESN’T WORK LIKE YOUR COFFEEMAKER YOU IDJIT. We feel ‘bigger’ emotions (aka, we cannot regulate our emotional response). Sometimes this means we cry when we’re mad, or repeatedly tap, jump, or wave our hands/feet when we’re excited (stimming). Other times it means we get unexplained emotions, such as feeling like randomly wanting to jump or forgetting why we walked into a room. This is simply because our brain is broken by normal standards. We experience random drops and increases in serotonin, dopamine, and even melatonin. We can have cravings for random things or be really into trying new things, but spend a month living on graham crackers and macaroni. Either way, embrace it. Or become a menace to society by posting memes and becoming a comedian. Be yourself, do not let “normal” standards define you, or keep yourself hidden.
Hi, my name is Lizard-Like Bean. I am that annoying little voice that says the random ass shit no one wants to hear. I am not trying to offend you, but if you are offended put this book down and go cry to your golf clubs or something. If you find this funny, keep reading and maybe you’ll discover something or someone about yourself.
I have rants about classwork, people, memes, funny reels, and occasionally stupid things people say. Also coffee and cute things such as tatted six foot sum men who make me drool. You’re probably debating your life decisions in picking up this particular book. I play saxophone in a high school band and I live by the rules of a made up world that lives in my head.
Anyway, dogs and cats. The cutest dog breed by far is the French bulldog. They look like babies when smushed, and they are smol. This makes them cuddly and adorable, I am the proud bean of a Mini Aussiepoo. Don’t ask. The cutest cat ever is the cat. They all look pretty much the same feature wise. Some has fur, some has none. Some have big ears, some have small ears or ears that do funny things like flop, or twist. Some have stripes, or spots, or a toasted look like they stared at the oven too long. I love Lil Peep, anyone else just randomly vibe??? Where was I? Ah yes, the furry loaves of evil. Loaf of cat. Cats are great, they are unique, they act like whatever species they grow up with. So if they bite and have an attitude chances are they grew up with a shark or you. So??? Land seals, pitty breeds. Dogs. They are cuteness as well, however they are more expensive and time consuming to keep.
