The Vagina Monologues?

That, or a Georgia O'Keefe exhibition.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

meara, after looking at the picture again, it's not "like Miss Maryland," only exactly Miss Maryland.

I could not make myself wake up this morning! I haven't had that happen in a few weeks...

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I now suspect that my sleep disturbances and anxiety this week are tied to involuntarily going off my anti-anx medicine for five days the other week. Why it is cropping up now, is I'm guessing due to a certain threshold in the blood being gradually achieved? At any rate, it may be proof that the drug is working... when I can take it, anyway.

Apparently I stole your awakeness, Jesse--I couldn't fall asleep last night (er, stupid drinking a redbull at the bar), and finally did....so when I woke up this morning, I thought "oh, it's probably noon", figuring I'd gotten my usual-as-of-late ten hours of sleep, since I was feeling like I'd slept up, and couldn't sleep any more. Nope, 9AM! On a weekend! Seven hours of sleep! WTF?

Seven hours of sleep!

Sounds like heaven to me. 1 more than I can usually accomplish. Even on a weekend.

“Not dead yet!”

I slept nine solid hours without having to wake up to take a Lortab.

I attribute this to the body pillow my wonderful mother-in-law bought me when I mentioned how I'd inadvertently started turning onto my side and that it hurt, but that when I stuffed a pillow underneath my stomach and hips, like I used to when I was pregnant, it helped. So she went and bought me a body pillow with a terrycloth pillowcase that makes it all soft and snuggly. I hug it and pet it and I think I'm going to name it George.

However, end result of no pain meds for nearly ten hours was OUCH when I woke up this morning.

I have been sleeping in like crazy. I slept something like 11 hours on Friday night. I got up at 11 today. Okay, I went to bed at 3:30, so i guess it balances out.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Am I bad for liking this? You see, not because of the pink (which will have to go. But think of this in red... with more black, and without that boob-stone (whatever that's on the chest area) and much better), but because that dress shape looks awesome on me (which is to say, yes I have pictures of similar shapes, but I'm not gonna post them here. Also, thank goodness omnis_audis doesn't read Natter).

Too much (()). But it's holiday, and I allow myself to slack.

msbelle packed 21 (at least) boxes. Seriously, SHE packed because she is very good at it. I just stood around and dusted and let her go to town. Thank god.

I'm still in a state of free-floating anxiety and OH HOLY shit. Anxiety dreams when I slept which was only when I could sleep.

The walls are closing in. Literally (boxes, heh.)

But thank god for msbelle.

Now I need to go buy more bubble wrap. And groceries.

Shir, I'm sorry, that dress is terrible. Sure, if you changed most of the things about it, it would be OK....

See, Sara?? msbelle packing is love.

It is GORGEOUS out here. Too bad I only went out side to go food shopping because I was hungry, so I had to come home and eat ASAP.
