Meanwhile in Neurospicy HQ… 

My mental control room is hosting:

Overwhelm Gremlin: Ugly-crying over cream crackers and post-its 🍘  

Hyperfocus Goblin: Alphabetising mental cobwebs 🕸️  

Squirrel-Hamster Hybrid: Disco dancing on my last neuron🪩  

Complaints Dept: Granny wailing 👵

All while my not-oodie is a personal sauna. I’m 37% soup and counting

The Text That Changed Everything

While I attempt even the thought of moving, Ellie messages about her ‘chill’ morning. 

I know Ellie, Ellie does not ‘chill’ like the rest of us. 

She is literally the human equivalent of a productivity nuclear reactor. Her chill morning consists of…well, I won’t go into details but….a lot!

If she can sping clean Saturn without breaking a sweat….I CAN CONQUER PANTS!

So, despite it all…. I am on my way to pants. (Or shorts because I have POTS, I’m overheating and…well, cos I can. Throw caution to the wind and screw unshaved legs.

This is my rebellion. This is self-care. This is real.

The Great Pants Uprising

The Plan:

Sensible shorts! (POTS + sauna skin = duh) 

The Reality

…Grabbed comfy pants instead (you can’t make this shit up)

ADHD Logic

*Long pants in a heat wave? Why the devil  not!” 

BUT….they. Are. On

Victory score: Fabric 1 – Butt 0

Then came the miracle trifecta (oo er, how posh does that sound?!)

– Brushed teeth 🪥 (minty!) 

– Brushed hair 📏 (mostly tamed) 

– Did skincare 🧼 (vaguely human) 

Translation: I’m upright & 51% human-looking = Thriving!  

✨ The Monument to Small Rebellions

I had a quick look at my efforts to humanise:  

– Pants: Containing Bottom ✅  

– Hair: Mostly Tamed ✅  

– Breath: Won’t kill anyone ✅  

– Face: Moisturised ✅ 

The control room was still chais… but now everyone waved tiny flags. Aww

And honestly? That’s enough. 

– The blogs can chill their bill. 

– The site can stay delightfully messy. 

I flipping showed up

I turned chaos into sentences. I outwitted the squirrel-hamster.

And i declared war on pantslessness and rogue gremlins.

To my fellow chaos-humans:

*If your brain’s a feral squirrel swinging from a disco ball…If you’re running on 2% battery…If “winning” means pants + toothpaste…*You are absolutely acing it all while outwitting a squirrel-hamster in a disco inferno. Legend!

*P.S. The pants lasted 7 minutes. Shorts supremacy reigns. 

**P.P.S. Ellie, this butt containment? Dedicated to your tea-powered soul  

💬 CHUMLIN CHALLENGE

• Current battery % 🔋 *(Mine: 2% → 5% post-pants)*

• Today’s weirdest win

*Visuals created by pure chaos because I forgot photos existed #ADHDMagic
