Yesterday was a busy day, I fully enjoyed it. On the way home on wheel trans my mom and I passed by Atlas Ave where she said she first lived when she moved to Canada. I had no idea of the name of the street before that's why my mom likes my friend JR's music so much (for reference, this is his song Atlas: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YqHicjtP-9k) We also passed by Clovelly where she first lived with my dad. I swear, might as well move to that area. Unfortunately I don't have much of a choice. I'm glad ODSP was raised this month, so that I might eventually.
I went on Zoom last night and met two new people in a "disability writing group" (Alex and Lauren) who then followed me on Instagram. The instructor wanted us to write about waking up one day with a superhuman sense and how our disabilities would be affected then gave us 20 minutes to write. That was a tough one but it will give me inspiration for today. I haven't written anything creative in so long.
After that Zoom which I wish was longer, I hopped onto a Zoom with Friendly Spike Theatre and read a poem, I think it was the wrong choice for the audience but oh well. It was the right choice for me.
Last night, my ex creeped me the fuck out by messaging me on linkedin saying he wishes me luck because "something's gonna happen" then when I asked him what he meant, he said he got an email from me (not from me, I don't even know his email, it was a marketing email from linkedin) and said I was "meeting people" so "maybe you'll find a nice job"... such a gaslighting comment. Not to mention, I don't know what he's talking about or where he found out I'm going out now. It's been like 7 months since I heard anything from him. *facepalm* I told him to enjoy life because I am, hopefully he gets the message that I thought I was rid of him.
I didn't think getting back in touch with him, almost 5 years ago, after my accident, would open such a can of worms. I was happy to still be alive and wouldn't have done it otherwise. Oh well, learning not to stress about these things. I have better things to worry about if I have to worry at all :)
