You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Dude, aren't you supposed to be working?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That's it. I'm going to Whole Foods on the way home. I bet there will be cupcakes.

Susan, down seems like a natural starting point to me. But it's your tagline, reject it if you wish.

What is even happening?

Does anyone have any good relaxation exercises? My anxiety is really pissing me off. I almost dragged Julia and Chris out of the line at Dunkin Donuts twice, out of my overwhelming need to bolt. I'm having fight-or-flight with no OMGWTFPOLARBEARS in sight.

I didn't bolt, but it was a close call. I am trying to cut down on caffeine (I think I need to cut down even more) and remember to eat breakfast and lunch (I'm naturally inclined to be a meal skipper). I'd like to try lifestyle changes like that, before I go see my doctor for medication, because the anxiety is occasional (although more frequent, and stronger lately), and historically, I've been able to ride it out.

(also need exercises to ward off the temptation to write bad Mary!Me fic, with a slayer who got activated in her thirties, Post-Chosen, and thinks she's having anxiety attacks)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Hmm. Want CHOCOLATE.

Just needed saying again.

Gronk.

So did that.

I have no idea what my SAT scores were. I remember what my LSAT score was, but that's pretty much meaningless since they have changed the scoring system since I took them.

P-C, your writing is wonderful, I marked your post so I can go back and read it more closely.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Oy, Cindy. Hairpats for you, if you want 'em. I do Child's Pose as a relaxation exercise.

Cindy , I found that finding a place to sit down, closing my eyes, and taking slow deep breathes helped. I don't know how doable that is with two kids.
