Since moving in with Isa, I’ve been taking my general hygiene and self care more seriously. As someone diagnosed with severe depression for almost half their life, taking care of myself has always been difficult.
Of course, when I work and go to school I make sure to do normal hygiene things. Brush my teeth, take showers, brush my hair, wear deodorant. Despite not caring about myself, I understood that by being disgusting in public I would become more visible in a way. I’m not a fan of being perceived, I’ve always hated having to be a physical being.
My routine stayed bare minimum. I was just trying to exist by being mostly invisible.
But, now that I live with someone—someone who will bear witness to my existence, I have a sense of responsibility to be better than I once was.
I thought it would be harder for me to achieve than it really was. I’d always heard growing up it only takes two weeks to build a habit. That was a statement I always thought about, I wondered if it was true and if it was why was it so difficult for me to pass more than five days of consistency.
In other news, Isa and I went to see Iron Lung (Markiplier movie) on Wednesday. I’ve honestly never been a huge Markiplier fan, I didn’t really watch his content growing up. I was more of a Pewdiepie kinda kid, or well, YouTubers like:
Maxmoefoe
FilthyFrank
idubbbz
H3H3
SO, as someone who isn’t an avid Markiplier fan who worships the ground he walks on my honest review is…. drum roll
The movie was ok.
Not bad, not amazing, just oh-kay.
I liked the imagery of the movie. The lighting, the set, the things I could possibly imagine with what little backstory was given to us.
I think I would watch it again just to try to understand it more. I went home and watched his gameplay of the game the movie was based off of… The game had even less information than the movie. Honestly I didn’t even think he enjoyed the game that much in his video so I wasn’t even sure what possessed him to make a 2 hour movie based off of it.
It was a nice time with Isa though, getting out of the house and being able to see something we both had been anticipating. He felt the same way I had, the movie was ok and the worst part was being left with a million questions that would never be answered.
Birthday soon. The only thing I asked for was both of Omar King’s published books. I wanted to support an excellently eccentric author. I am excited to read An Odyssey of Dingbats sometime soon.
