Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

And they are totally not seamless.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Poll for you guys:

Last week I made plans with a few friends from work to go out for a couple beers after work on Friday (tomorrow) to celebrate finishing classes and getting through my paper, presentation, and exam.

I have not told anyone at work about the current situation and frankly, I have no desire to explain it anymore to anyone who doesn't already know.

Options:

Option #1: Go out for drinks, celebrate what I did actually accomplish, because that is totally worthy even though it doesn't feel like it now.

Option #2: Call out sick and stay home on my couch in my pjs eating ice cream and watching Newsradio and Arrested Development.

I don't wanna lie or dissemble while out with co-workers, but I don't know if I want to sit around feeling sorry for myself either and maybe it might be good to do some celebrating. I am just not in a very celebratory place right now.

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

Option #1 I'd say.

Option #2 will make you feel worse, I'm pretty sure.

I know. It totally will.

I am just sort of still in the wallowing stage. It's awful, but a day of super-wallow seems so appealing! Though not helpful, as my more evolved brain is totally pointing out.

It's fucking caveman v. astronaut up here in my brain.

Go astronaut! Totally option #1, babe.

I am just sort of still in the wallowing stage.

That's why it's good to have an event to un-wallow. Seriously, depression starts building its own groove in your brain if you let it. Go out and celebrate all your good work with your classmates. There's a lot to celebrate still.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Option 1 is more ideal, but if you wake up tomorrow morning and really don't want to go in, I don't think you need to force yourself.
