On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

Librarian Warlord

Is he willing to give lessons?

I think this is something about our partners we all have to learn the hard way, unfortunately. It took my DH a few years before he accepted the fact that the easiest way through those kinds of days -- for both of us -- was to take a step back.

Have a great weekend at the beach!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I'm feeling a little better but also exhausted. I am headed to bed now for hopefully a very good night's sleep. I hope everyone here sleeps well tonight too.

ETA: Thanks to the people who posted about their problems with BCPs. I'm sorry I didn't respond to you all individually, but it is nice to know I am not alone.

Is he willing to give lessons? Teacup Guy just doesn't know what to do with me right now, and I just feel awful because I know how bad I am being but it's like I am watching myself from the hall and can't stop myself.

Just announcing the situation can be helpful. "Look, I'm in a mood right now where I'm getting way more pissed off than is reasonable. We need to talk about things tomorrow, because tonight it's just not going to work."

Nope. Didn't work. "But, why? What can you do about it? Is it this? Is it that?" Don't get me wrong, he is so very wonderful and he really means well, but he doesn't get it, and I don't think we have been together long enough for him to have figured all of this out yet. Especially since, in the past when I was this bad we weren't living together so I would just stay away for a few days.

Really, bed now.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Damn. Zito had a no-no through 7. Lost that in the 8th. Lost the shutout in the 9th. Oy. And yet...his 100th win as an Oakland Athletic. Only the fourth pitcher to do that after Catfish Hunter, Vida Blue and Dave Stewart.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Is anyone around? I'm having a major freakout about something that happened at work today (discovered a co-worker's mistake, which part of me feels I should have caught earlier, and that is going to cause me even more work when I don't have time to deal with it.)

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I'm here.
