You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Incidentally, the last time I took anyone to the zoo (as in being responsible for them) was an octogenarian friend of Bec's. That was a cool visit. There was a family of peafowl, a mother with chicks, wandering around the outdoor dining tables. Got lots of good photos. And then we got lost in West Philadelphia with a retirement home resident with an increasingly insistent bladder issue in the front seat. Good times, I tell you. Good times.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Yay zoo!
I am so contentless this morning.

Always Anti-fascist!
One thing I hate about Monday mornings is my lack of anything resembling an interesting weekend, for weeks. Maybe I should start making shit up, see if you're smart enough to catch me. But at least nobody's cutting around the naughty bits, I suppose. So Billytea, did Bec's friend find a bathroom in time?

Happy birthday, Owen!
I woke up this morning with searing lower back pain, which still hasn't subsided. It feels like it would go away if I could only stretch out properly, or crack my back, but I can't because it HURTS. I have yet to find a comfortable sitting position. It's not bad enough that I'm worried about it, but it's bad enough and constant enough that I'm having trouble concentrating on anything else.

What is even happening?
Jess, have you taken anything like Ibuprofen, or whatever?

Not yet. I think the receptionist has some upstairs, but that would involve walking up a flight of stairs.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

The ThermaCare patches can help loosen up tight muscles. (If you go out at lunch, or can send a minion to CVS.) And the downward dog yoga pose has been a really good stretch for my lower back. YLBMV.

Oh, good idea. I have no minions, but I can go at lunch. (I went upstairs to get the Advil, and walking turns out to be much less painful than sitting.)
Downward dog would feel great if I thought I could actually get into it.

Mostly lurking...

No iPod this semester...
I'm sitting here in tears, but it just hit me what I've done.
I'm not at school today. I justified it because I have a migraine...but I'm pretty sure I have the migraine because I'm terrified of being triggered in my Mountain Tales class today. And, unlike the other classes I've missed this semester, I didn't even try today. Usually I called someone for justification. Today I thought maybe I could just squeeze it by without anyone noticing (easy since Emily is out of town). But, I know. I can't lie and take the iPod.
Don't get me wrong...I don't feel well...I think that quite possibly this is not a good class for me. But, it's too late to withdraw, so I need to finish it. I need to be there and deal with the consequences outside of class...in therapy...with friends and family...etc.
The good thing...as long as I don't let this totally get me down...I still will have done better this semester than I have done ever. And I've tried really damn hard.
But, right now? I'm kicking myself. And hard.
