All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Shrift, are you an executive life ruiner now?

People have been singing "We Are The World" all afternoon and evening.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

TAL did a segment last week on ASMR [link] At the end of it, I turned to J and said, "Wait, are you telling me you don't have that tingly sensation when someone whispers or speaks quietly in an accent? I thought everyone did." This totally explains why I saw every episode of Bob Ross painting. So, how many Buffistas get that feeling? I am going to try using some of these youtube videos when going to sleep and see what that does.

I couldn't take a whole minute of that video. I wanted to run screaming everytime she put her hands near the camera.

That video is definitely creepy, but this one puts me into a tingley trance. [link] I could listen to this ALL DAY.

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

Does nothing for me, good or creepy.

I just heard mention of gooey butter cake, paired with toasted ravioli. Now that sounds like something I could get behind.

just as bad, like I want to scratch my arms to make it stop, cause it makes them and the back of my shoulders like unable to be comfortable. you can't understand it and it is so quiet, it is in and out, and i just turned my volume up to 11 and still couldn't make it out clearly. maddening. so yeah, not ASMR - possibly the anti-ASMR.

Once when I was doing outbound phone calls I called a man who answered the phone in the most lucious Scottish accent, and I actually had to hang up on them because my only response was idiotic noises. Then there was the time I was doing support for a man with a low voice who had an English accent that was just a hair rougher than Standard BBC, and he said my name in this low, delighted tone, and I actually said "glurble." His "What was that, love?" did not help.

I have had the shiver down my spine at wonderful things, but GentleWhisperer made me go "You're up to something, what are you up to? Who do you work for!"

And that Irish whispering video gave me tingles. Cool, I have a minority condition that's nifty, for a change.
