Our wings are not tired.

Amy, I had the same problem as you wrt "she's sick so I can't blame her" until I was in my late 20s and realized, "asshole ain't a disease". I haven't spoken with her since.

What's a frosted orange?

It's like an orange milkshake, except I don't think there's ice cream in there.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

there's frosting?

can't decided if that idea grosses me out or needs to be consumed post haste.

Because books.

That's hard. My mom was chronically, physically ill, though.

No frosting, but I think the name comes from the fact that a lighter color rises to the top, so it looks frosted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Is it different from an Orange Julius? I've tried that. I don't usually like creamy tastes mixed with orange flavour (orange creamsicles are just wrong--I used to drink my orange juice all before or all after my cereal to minimize the flavour overlap) but that was good.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Orange Julius will make me laugh forever because at some point, possibly before I was born, my mother thought that the special thing there was orange juice with hot dogs IN IT. And thought that for a long time before actually saying it to anyone! OMG it makes me laugh.

It's similar to an Orange Julius. It's kind of like an orange slushy with a little cream.

orange creamsicles are just wrong

Oh, for sure. And not at all saying we were in the same boat. But as horrible thing after horrible thing kept being done to me, for 29 years, I *always* tried to make a relationship work. Cutting that cord was the best thing that I ever could have done for myself. Also, we actually didn't have a relationship - it was me all those years thinking and hoping that we did. So there was really nothing to "cut" except for my longings.
