Yeah--I'm pretty inexpert at meds. If I could take a fistful first thing in the morning, it would be optimal, but apparently reasons.
The lone pill that has a three times daily appearance--I curse it. And should probably take today's right now.
My mother's toenails are currently yellow with a black and green stripe on each big toe. Bless.
I was getting frustrated that not enough of the other villa goers were getting back to me on the T shirt thing. I know it's not cool to be the reason we don't do it, but I'd rather someone stood up and said that, than me chomp at the bit.
One person came back with "Sorry I disappeared--my father died and my marriage ended. But I could have said something sooner."
OH FUCK YOU FOR BEING OVER-REASONABLE. Like, she wasn't being snippy there at all.
Does anyone not get sports to this degree: [link] ?
Doesn't sports just look like being excited about people trying really hard to excel at something? Does it have to be "gotten" any more than that?
And isn't that almost always common to the human experience, whether you're performer or audience?
You did a thing! Really well! Yay!
It might be running or acting or cooking or hitting a ball with some peculiar restrictions on the how of it all, or it's diving for pearls or seven million other things humans do. Only some of them are sports.
Well, hey. The developer who obscures to save his ass--out on said ass.
That's good, right?
I find those shrink wrapped bodies disturbing.
Also? Just did nails, but now need to pick up kids. My sense of timing is not too good, is it?
Oh well, at least the toenails will survive. I can redo my hands later.
Timelies all!
Never been on Wellbutrin. Luckily I've had good results with Prozac. Zoloft, on the other hand, made me jittery as all hell.(My doctor's casual dismissal of my concerns was the final straw with her, and I found a new doctor.)

When you put it that way, yes. But I think it's more that sometimes people are unable to fathom why other people are invested/interested in a thing, combined with the rhetoric of jocks vs. geeks in American media.

Yeah.
I was kind of anti-sports in college, possibly a result of being harassed by jocks.
Very few people (who aren't my father) are into
all
sports (he lays claim to liking to watch any physical competition), or every comic, or all movies, even within a genre (or starring any actor, or by any director), so, you know...varies. That part was a given before you even showed up.
At its simplest, it's really simple. Then again, so is religion. When you get to the point where athletes are given credit for more than athleticing, and coaches are given free passes to commit crimes, or tearing your own city apart is a reasonable response to both winning and losing--that shit is just people being hateful and stupid.
But I get why I cry when Usain Bolt wins his race--that was beautiful. I can only imagine what it feels like to push yourself across 100m like that--that fast--how amazing that must feel for the scant nine and a half seconds, how the iteration of training and striving comes to fruition with millions of people watching, and your whole country has turned out to cheer you on--you can wrap up feeling good about being from a podunk poor-as-shit country that's never putting anything into space for just a little while, because he's really fast and he's one of us.
And I totally fail to get the shot put, or American football, or downhill skiing, but I do at least get that you just have to swap words out to get there, not feelings.
Holy ded from the cute: Baby kangaroo and baby wombat:
