im trying to get less normal. its hard but i persevere.
I've been all over town and I can't find a Normaler anywhere. I could probably get one online, but I'd really rather buy used.
What my brain would prefer me to do after ever. single. interaction: "Please fill out this form to rate my behaviour in this encounter.
- What clues did I miss?
- Did I respond with the appropriate "uh hmm" s while listening?
- Did I behave in a weird way?
- Did I say something inappropriate?
- Did I interrupt you when I already understood what you meant?"
and other, similar questions LOL
normal psh let your freak flag fly
Yasss fuck normal!!!
"Was that good? Did I do a good job seeming normal? Someone tell me please. Oh god they think I'm fucking unhinged don't they?" Sleep is disrupted that night in rumination and worry

“Get normaler” top item on my to-do list for ages. Hasn’t worked thus far.
I'm a normal human just like you
