Thanks.
I had an appointment with my GP to follow up with being in the hospital. I also had my DBT group. I was running late. I haven't had a shower, I slept like shit. I wasn't engaged in the group. I left thinking about the homework assignment for next week and pretty much cried the whole way home.
So I called to reschedule the GP appointment I got a little grief about how the hospital requires or wants or likes a follow up with a doctor. I explained since being discharged I've seen my therapist and psychiastrist multiple times and followed up and I just can not go over this today. So now the appointment is the 14th.
I wish I had said "I realize that I need to see the doctor but right now I'm trying to practice self care and that means not going to an appointment that might cause me to be more upset than I'm already in at the moment."
My point got through though.
My brother is among the FB friends that are all excited about preserving the historical whatever of the flag. He of course was born and raised in upstate NY. But apparently Fox News tells him he should be outraged at the southerners being denied their rights. I am ignoring him. My great niece, also from NY, I gave a slap down.
Laura, that is what is driving me crazy! We are in upstate NY!
That is the main reason I can't even bring myself to discuss it. Real facts and history aren't going to matter. Can't argue with crazy and/or stupid. I can't discuss it with them without calling them bad names!
I just paid off my car loan.
Now this is a wonderful thing indeed!
I should back out of a Facebook argument with a friend of a friend who is defending the Confederate battle flag and just called me "darlin."

Which is why I question democracy, really. Crazy and stupid--and selfish--don't have any right to dictate how things run, to my mind. They get to find some badlands portion of some state with a low population density and go found their own little insular, stupid-minded, federation, fly their own flag, and be happy. The rest of us get to heave a sigh of relief and get on with enjoying, or at least tolerating, each other. We'll send flyover supplies on the regular, but them folks? They don't get out anymore.
Beverly 2016! I think there are a few of my crazy friends/family that would happily head for the hills since they believe my kind are ruining this here land.

Texas keeps volunteering. Though there are some people we would need to air lift out.
Someone pat me on the head and tell me things will be okay?
