Burrell, take care of yourself. You won't be able to do shit for others if you're breaking.

Oh, and you didn't *let* your life get this stressed out. So no taking the blame on that one.

Lean on us. We're here for you, in whatever way you need us to be.

One rule of thumb I use when I start blaming myself is "realistically, would I yell at someone else if they did this, or would I understand?"

All I need is Theo to follow me around all day.

I should have this tattooed on the back of my arm so I'll see it all the time.

I'm having the kind of day where I've already had to use four SHOUT wipes, so I'm stained and bedraggled and viciously chomping on potato chips.

Feeling so bummed today. J just can't see that our poor dying kitty needs to be let go. He keeps saying stuff like "I think he's better--he walked into the other room." The cat really isn't better. We're not arguing, just at an impasse. Then I talk to my mom ,and my brother, the one who lives near her whose wife hates all of us, went to see her for the first time in months. He told her they wouldn't be coming for Thanksgiving and she's totally upset. They have their own Christmas, so it's ALWAYS the only Holiday she gets to see her grandkids. Then lots to deal with at work.

This week owes a lot of people an apology and some chocolate.

Extra points if flip flops.

Why do I keep thinking there are magic quesadillas out there that won't make me barfy??? I can't remember the last time I finished an order, but I like starting an order, and they sound PERFECT. Carnitas quesadillas...
