How you can distinguish that from a ploy for presents--I'm not sure.
It's a moral distinction in my head.
Can we maybe vote on the whole murdering people issue?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Emily, I have thrown several for myself, based solely on the logic that I am the only one who knows who I want to have at my birthday party.
I think they went well though.
Of course, if your birthday is while you are out here, I would be happy to help.
DUDE.
Seriously.
ION, I just poked myself with the cat's insulin syringe for the first time. It kind of hurt.

She's being a sweetie and asking on my behalf, because there's just *no* time to throw me a 30th birthday party before she leaves. This next several weeks are gonna be crazy!

Oh. I would still be happy to help, but it might be a little harder now.
I totally think you should throw yourself one.

Get the super thin ones and then you won't notice until you see the teeny little bloodstains you are leaving everywhere! Well, that's just true of stabbing. If it's more of a dragging action, it hurts like papercuts. Those fuckers are sharp.

New study shows that people are paranoid:
The study found that:
* Over 40% of people regularly worry that negative comments are being made about them
* 27% think that people deliberately try to irritate them
* 20% worry about being observed or followed
* 10% think that someone has it in for them
* 5% worry that there is a conspiracy to harm them
I'm not at work today! Woohoo!

I think that's what this must be, because I use the superthins.
Ow.

This is what I've always managed to do to myself the few times I've jabbed me. Owie! (and, thanks!, that reminded me that I need to pick up syringes today).
I think throwing a party for yourself is totally fine. Most years my best friends have a party for me at their place but I end up sending out the invitation. This year friends have scheduled their wedding BBQ celebration on my birthday (it's a Sat. this year) and, while I'm thrilled they're getting married and all and I know it will be a fun time, I'm a little miffed about having to share my day.

Oh, that reminds me. I'm cat sitting a diabetic cat next week, so I may be calling on y'all for advice.

I've found that downsizing the number of people whose opinions matter to you helps tremendously with this.
