Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

Is the yogurt an internal or external treatment?

If there is any extra calm~ma, I'll happily take it. I've been crying on and off most of the day because I'm so nervous about tomorrow. I haven't even been able to eat all the things. The anesthesia part is what makes me nervous, which I didn't have last time, and just being in the hospital in general.

sj, do you have anything mindless and soothing to watch? Would that help at all?

I'm trying to think of thing I do to try and self-soothe, and a lot of it is TV. Or I go on Instagram and search hastags. Like #sunset. Or #beach. Or -- don't laugh -- #capybara. Really. I love their little faces! They're so serene.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Calmness and soothing ~ma!

I baked my morning oatmeal with coconut oil and chocolate chips this morning and think I'm gonna have to make it again for dinner/dessert. Con: 20 minute wait plus cooking time Pro: warm gooey chocolates oatmealey goodness. I even forgot to add honey before cooking and it was still amazing with a little honey drizzled on top afterwards.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I baked my morning oatmeal with coconut oil and chocolate chips this morning

Coconut oil in oatmeal is AMAZEBALLS. I thank whatever random impulse made me try it the other morning. And it fills me up for a lot longer than non-coconut-oil oatmeal does. Because, okay, oatmeal is BIG-TIME fiber, right? Should be filling. And it is, but then I'm hungry -- starving, really -- within 90 minutes or less. Even when I put protein powder in it, I'm still hungry again really quickly.

But as soon as I put coconut oil in it, I was full for hours. Magic! Tasty magic!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

calm-ma, sj. If it helps, my mother was under anesthesia for almost 6 hours and did just fine.

Our wings are not tired.

I was under for the foot surgery and I was very concerned before. But after I was amazed that I had no clue and felt completely normal. Like a miracle of science and stuff.

Much love and calm~ma headed your way.
