It was that too.

I have changed a lot. I'll list the things later if I think about it, but mostly I think most of you probably find me much less annoying than when I first got here.

My life has changed a lot. I was in deep grief for my mother when I first started posting here. My relationship with my father was in the toilet and I was single mother trying to work and go to uni full time.

Now I'm married. Have more kids. Couldn't live without my Dad (well I could, but I truly value his love and advice). Have come to terms with my Mum being gone (most of the time anyway), and my desire to post every thought that comes into my mind seems to have disappeared, which helps.

I was much younger when I came here. Mathematically, but even more so psychologically. I still had the sophomoric need to academically debate most everything for debate's sake. I've learned how to mostly walk away from things that are not good for me. I've stopped caring about things I can't control, though sometimes to the point of numbness; I'm actually hoping to swing that pendulum back a smidge in the future. I've shifted from being very libertarian to sitting on the liberal side of most issues, with a few noteable holdouts. In that same vein, I've learned a lot about empathy, and lost a lot of judgementalism, though definitely not all of it. I've made peace with a lot of things and become a better daughter and sister.

Really? Cuz, my teeth are worn to nubs from gritting, and I can bench press 350 with my jaw, from all the clenching.
