Is there anything we can do, Teppy?
So, how was your summer? Mine was fun. Saw some fish. Went mad with hunger. Hallucinated a whole bunch.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
No, I think I just wanted to get it all out.
I feel like I'm being a big baby and overreacting, until I actually SAY it all. And then I'm like, NOPE, this is a pretty normal reaction.

Teppy, it may be a perfectly normal reaction, but it's still a lot.

The status is NOT quo.
No hugs. But I hear you.

I'm feeling furious with myself that events in comic books are upsetting me so much, but adding self-scolding on top of real upset is not productive. The feelings are real no matter what inspires them.

Compassionately intolerant
Perfectly normal response...that's science talking.
Bless you, Steph. I'll stand in silent, vigilant certainty that you are doing it right, even when it feels the total opposite of that.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
That sounds like a totally normal reaction, Steph. You've got a lot of stuff going on.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Steph, you can only pull up your socks (tm Ginger) so many times till you really have to admit that, yeah, that's a lot. And you're entitled to acknowledge that.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
It is a normal reaction, but I don't think that means it's not worth seeing a therapist about if you think it would help. I can understand that it's just one more thing to think about and deal with, but just because you know why you're upset doesn't mean you have to deal with it by yourself.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs
I don't know who, but someone sent me a beautiful flannel pillowcase, trimmed with a pink gingham pattern. It is exquisite and I adore it. It was wrapped in the loveliest tissue paper and ribbon. They also included the most wonderful card that says all the right things. So, even though I've not been around here lately, huge thanks to my precocious seekrit solstice santa. You made my day. There may have been allergies.
