That sometimes helps, too, you know. But I hope the calming ~ma does the trick.

I was attacked by anxiety last night. Ack! My most common reaction to waking up that stressed is to turn into the Hulk and scream, cry, and smash things, but there was a little boy in the bed, so I couldn't let that happen. It was weird, trying to be quiet and not disturb everyone while filled with rage.
Ugh. Am now trying to hack away at my terrifying to-do list in the hopes of not being attacked again tonight.

Jesse, I thought I remembered that you did not screw in your air conditioner. Which is a weird thing to remember about a person, come to think of it... I think I will try it tonight and hope it does not plummet to the ground and take out my neighbor's air conditioner!

In all the years we've had them, I don't think we've ever screwed them in, Sophia. Just, uh, remember not to open the window.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ha! I am always the lazy one!

I didn't screw mine in last year, but this year when I tried to put it in, it was all too much, and I was afraid I couldn't get it on right. So then I got out my cordless drill and was determined to do it Right, and completely failed and couldn't reach anything or fit it to where the previous people did it, or anything! So now I just have no A/C and bought a fan instead (luckily in Seattle that's usually good enough--but since my office is on the 4th floor of my house, sometimes it's not!)
I am a perfectionist in a messy house. I need to remind myself to let go of the perfectionism every day
I totally get it--I have a hard time disconnecting my give-a-damn, sometimes--especially for work. But sometimes you just have to.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
We never used to properly mount our window AC units until we had kids and got paranoid about it. If you have metal window frames, you'll need a drill bit that can bore the holes for you, but once that's done it's REALLY easy to put in the screws (or take them out if you don't want the AC in the window all year).
Burrell, that sounds awful. I hope you're feeling better this morning!

But I don't have a drill at all. I am not sure I want to buy one to put an air conditioner in! I have lived for 38 years without one!
