No kidding, right? I cry very easily, which never fails to astonish and confound KBD. It's not something I can control, and I've pretty much given up on trying.
I hear you sister. Same thing happened to me last week and i had to go visit my boyfriend's family that evening. I think the glasses hide the puffy a bit but I still feel like I look like a over-emotional freak. Tea bags don't really help or they didn't last week. I wonder if they need to be black tea teabags? For the tannins or something?
I am home sick today and supposedly working from home but I can't get Word on my new computer to load. so not so much working as checking my work email every so often. That counts right?
PB&J and gallons of coffee:
Happy Truly Birthday, Omnis.
Zen, I also wanted to say that I get the tired of being alone thing, since I was single for 8 years prior to KBD.
checking my work email every so often. That counts right?
This is definitely my definition of WAH! Hope you feel better quickly.
I also don't resond well to "don't cry." DH has decided that "there, there" is the most neutral comfort response.
I hear "don't cry" as a plea more than an instruction, so it doens't bother me, but I get why it would.
Smonster, I am sorry about the middle-of-the-night troubles and crying. Totally been there and it sucks.
Can someone explain to me what an acquaintance wrote on my facebook status yesterday? I was annoyed by her comment, and haven't addressed it with her, but I want to make sure that I'm not missing something plain as day.
I wrote:
Steve moves to Boston in 4 weeks. I do not accept this premise. I know far too well about long-distance relationships. DO NOT WANT.
She wrote:
Nanita -- stop resisting - make it easier on yourself ;(
Any ideas on what she means?
I'd be annoyed too, Java. That's awfully cryptic.
Any ideas on what she means?
I'd try and take it as harmlessly as possible, even though it is a bit ham-handed. I think she's trying to tell you to accept the inevitable and the emoticon is her trying to be nice about it.
Well, her husband left her last year so I am guessing it's the kind of lesson she's been teaching herself. But our circumstances are so very different; my boyfriend has been looking for work for a year and a half in his field, and finally has found something - on the other side of the continent. I am not going to engage her on it, I don't think it be useful.
But, yeah. I was a little surprised to see it as a response to my status.
