Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
When the hell did that happen???
That's awesome, Kathy. What's cool is that you're really loving it, too. I'm hoping yoga will be that for me.
If I ever go again, that is.
she very pointedly asked when I relaxed and gave my brain down time
Dude. Give your brain a break! You and your brain deserve it.
I hear you, Jilli. I seem to have two settings -- ON and OFF. I am constantly having to train myself to NOT think of "do it all or nothing."
You need some downtime, hon; but I get it, downtime is thinking time and that can kinda suck.
Repressing like a Winchester is way easier. Not healthier, but easier.
This is pretty much how I've lived my life. Not sure I recommend it.
That's one of the reasons I love my swim time. I can hold few thoughts: what lap I'm on (I keep track by factoring down to primes) and MAYBE one other thing. Like a narrative, fictional or otherwise (tonight's was wondering about Egyptian protesters) or making lists of what I need to do, in between the numbers. Nothing long term, nothing that can stick.
And that's a blessing to me these days. I'm not quite as crazed as I was in 2009, but even with the shit coming my way now, I'm a lot more calm. Less crawly back, bigtime. I count on that time.
Gah. Ordered a Spinach Artichoke pizza and the delivery guy got lost in our complex. When we finally got the pizza it was Pepperoni. I called them and they said they would send the right one out quickly. I made the original call 90 minutes ago. We iz HUNGRY.
I am a Winchester repressor, but then I bawl like a baby about the poor doggies who were abandoned on the lake.
I also had a bad therapy experience, plus, when I went on anti-depressants, the things that had bothered me so much seemed so little.
That way lies THE END OF THE WORLD, sweetie.
But it means I get to be the Antichrist and be tall and stuff! I can bring about the END OF THE WORLD and see what's on the top shelves!
... you're not buying this, are you?
I hear you, Jilli. I seem to have two settings -- ON and OFF. I am constantly having to train myself to NOT think of "do it all or nothing."
There's STUFF. I should be DOING. ALL THE TIME.
You need some downtime, hon; but I get it, downtime is thinking time and that can kinda suck.
And then the brainworms get you. Yes. But, tonight I am going to take time off and read. And tomorrow I return to going out dancing. So that will be good.
... you're not buying this, are you?
I dunno. Being tall and able to see what's on the top shelves is pretty cool....
I don't think repression equals height.
