You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I can almost be convinced that the naked-snatch thing isn't just about looking like a kid.

Maybe it's about not wanting to get hair caught between your teeth.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah. Or to make cleanup easer after adventures with edible undies....

GA: Alex was a COMPLETE dick. He forgot that his first duty is to the patient. Well, Dr. Mrs. Shepard will remind him, now won't she? And does he not realized that he is a witness, and when this shit goes to trial (if the hospital doesn't settle, which they probably will), he will be called to testify, and could lose his job over this. Asshole.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Did I tell you guys I got a bed for Ruby that matches mine?

I have the Pop Flower set from Isaac Mizrahi, so it's all orange and pink and bright. And I found a wicker basket on clearance at Ross, the same shade of orange, lined with this soft cottony fabric with an orange flower print. So I put a soft pillow and blanket in it. She lurves it, and is asleep right now inside it, next to my desk.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Ruby's bed sounds awesome.

As does your Pop Flower set.

I love your description of therapy, and wish every therapy-resistant depressed person would read it and have things go click.

And, in something I never thought I'd say, Billytea said what I was planning to say about shaved beaver.

Umm.

Huh.

Carry on.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

I just want to clarify that I'm not one of those "you just need meds" kinda people. In fact I was really resistant to taking meds. OTOH, I've been in psychotherapy on and off for 20 years. It's a long hard process. But unless someone's got something like schizophrenia, which is clearly related to nature vs. nurture, I'd never recommend meds without psychotherapy.

We shall call it 'sheaver'.

I don't think that's true, since the cause of it is unknown. There are theories about viruses, and genetic disposition to it, but nothing about nature v. nurture.

Sorry, I knew I should have edited that for clarity. What I meant is that schizophrenia has biological causes, not causes that have to do with one's upbringing (which psychotherapy could help with).

Argh. It's another one of those Monday things. Didn't we decide to ban them from ever happening?
