It has been a couple years since I've been on here. Past me wouldn't have thought 2024 would be a real year. First I forgot my password because past me thought it was "the easiest password ever and I could never forget it." Anyways, that's a longer, more embarrassing story. I changed my name from "redundantwriter" to just "cucumbers". It's sad to see how self depreciating I was a couple years ago.
I was feeling a random whiff of nostalgia this evening, and was able to hop back on here finally. I'm bummed but understanding to see some of my friends either have left off the face of this app, or have left innactive profiles. It's like a ghost town almost. No one is looking back and everyone has moved forward. I don't know who I'm writing this to. Maybe for myself, as I'm looking through my old "books" and conversations, and notice how much I have changed as a person, and I can say there is a piece of me I can love while looking back. Sure most of it is cringy, but we all need to be a little more forgiving of younger selves. Though it was a funny time in my life and I haven't thought about it recently. I appreciate everyone I got to meet here. And If you ever hop back on and look through this ghost town, someone out here in the world loves a piece of you.
