Bitchfaces, how is everyone?
Fantastic. As am I. However, like all things of the semi-good variety, they must come to an abrupt and sometimes heartbreaking end.
Now that my near vacation has nearly ended, it seems I’ll be back to my usual piss and vinegar quirks, and that will just have to do. Also, y’all are going to get the added bonus of seeing Puffin in her shark life vest, and when I tell you that this is comedy gold, please know that isn’t an exaggeration.
I’ve been trying to add a little humor to my every day, although it proved to be a challenge for a little bit. Y’all know how I like to get in the “time I’ve invested” rut, and tell myself I can’t leave anything unfinished.
It turns out, that’s a really bad habit to get into. You start tallying up all of the hours, the resources, the sum total of everything you gave to something or someone, and it makes it feel as though cutting and running would be nearly criminal.
It isn’t. Really, fuck all that.
Cut it loose. The chances are that if something or someone hasn’t delivered on adding to the joy in your life by now, they aren’t fucking going to. They’re just going to continue to suck your happiness out of your existence for as long as you’ll allow them to.
I’m someone who hates to throw in the towel. I hate to admit failure. It’s fucking compulsive with me. I start adding up all of the parts of myself I invested in something, and it makes me sick to my stomach to think of giving up.
There are people who you should absolutely give up on. If they’re cruel to you, if you do all of the giving and they do all of the taking, if they can’t see who you really are for the fucked up picture of you they have in their head, give them what they want.
Walk the fuck out.
I’ve slammed a few doors this week, and it’s felt amazing. Because I needed to. Because not everyone is worth the effort. Really, if we’re being honest, most folks aren’t.
I like the way it feels to clean clutter out of my life. I should do it more often.
Anyway, I’m back in the offices of Bitchface Industries, you can catch me there sunup to sunup, unless Puffin is in her shark floatie, then you’ll just have to give me a few.
I’ll post some video. This damned dog. God knows I love her.

I seriously can't wait for that Puffin video!
All of this 💜🖤❤️🩹
