You’re not alone! Silver Springs is also one of my favorites for that exact same reason, and I too stopped at McDonald’s for breakfast before school so many times as soon as I learned to drive. They got me hooked with those coupons for cheap iced coffees, but I’ve thankfully since broken free.
Stevie Nicks is a witch, and to be honest, that’s the reason I love her so much. Yeah, the LARGE iced coffee in particular killed me. I also forgot I took my Ritalin once and then gulped one down— it was… a lot lmao
Yeah, it was extended release Ritalin (whoops) that i forgot I took (bc it was one pill) and then gulped down a large iced coffee… It basically was the equivalent of drinking five red bulls over the course of a few hours (also something I’ve done unintentionally, a horror story and lesson for my entire high school class)
I’ve been dealing with *that* one ghost for a couple of years now. A break-up, which turned out to be being cheated on, being taken advantage of. And the sad part is, I’m expected to deal with it quickly. And the support I need is falling out.
Regina Spektor’s “Becoming All Alone” plays in my head as I wait for breakfast, again.
Grief is not a linear process and depending on how much hurt happened, and how long you were together— it makes sense why your ghost keeps lingering around too long. I hate that capitalism and white supremacy dictate our timelines. It takes however long it takes! Wishing you love, and hopefully an eventual exorcism 🤞🏼
It’s also funny how one of the “capitalism is bad” types is the one kind of goading me to stop talking about her, even in a non-whiny manner. I always wondered if she liked me the way I may have liked her too. But that’s a different story, haha.

You have just taught me that Ritalin interacts with coffee

Ten years, Christa! Well, nine and a half.
