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

Ugh, I have random hives. What the hell?

Apparently, I have random smoove.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I never said it was random. Just the smoooove.

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

I have to be in a restaurant in Cupertino at 7:30 tomorrow morning (to meet G&J before J goes off to medical school). Why aren't I asleep yet, or even remotely tired?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

How did I become the morning shift, is my question.

Work will do you that to you, Jesse.

Kat! Happy second-day-of-your-new-age!

Jesse, um, at least you get enough sleep?

MWAH! hi Nilly! It's lovely to see you. how are you?

For the record:

Kat, you're *tiny*. And I will shake you until you believe it. Aren't you smaller than me now?

AM NOT TINY. Am in fact still bigger than the standard for tiny which would be msbelle, clearly.

Laura, I originally lost weight because I couldn't do bound poses in yoga which was frustrating. There was just too much flesh. So I started to lose and yoga got easier (and I got much stronger too, so that made yoga easier). But the weight loss was triggered by wanting to do the things I couldn't.

Jilli, I'm sorry that you know what it's like to feel like a woman with an eating disorder, even if you don't. At this point, I can tell you almost to the ounce what I weigh each day and I can tell you when I'll gain or lose and what, exactly, I need to eat to accomplish that. So, yeah, not a good feeling for me and certainly not for you.

What is even happening?

This is so awesome, Kat. I'm afraid my main motivation was always vanity, and once most of that disappeared, the extra weight got a bit too at home, here. I'm in the process of trying to convince myself I'd just like to get healthier and stronger, because I know I do, I just have to raise that to a level where I'd like it enough to do something about it.

In the case of the lady with the tumor, I think the jurors were able to gronk a tumor but not mental illness--which upsets me. Schizophrenia has medical causes and medical treatments and yet still gets treated like some sort of act. If anyone ever met someone with schizophrenia, they'd know you can't fake it. Doctors know, anyway.
It's truly awful, Cashmere. I know how hard you've had to advocate for your brother, in the past, and even then, you were lucky to get minimal care for him. I don't understand how people don't get that mental illness is a physical illness, in this day and age.

Fine-yet-stressed-by-the-news, thanks, Kat. Can't work properly as a result (well, that's pretty much the whole country, not just me), so I'm thankful that there are summer classes I'm going to start to TA soon, because I'll have to concentrate on them, standing in front of students and all. You?
