OMG, this week is killing my semi-introvert self. Staying with my mother, and even though she's been out of town the past couple of nights, last night I had dinner with the people staying in my apartment and then drinks with a friend in town for work, then tonight was my support group. All good things! But I just had one hour to sit alone and watch a TV show I picked, for the first time since Sunday. Thank goodness she won't be home until 8 or something tomorrow and I can come straight home from work.
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Happy birthday, Lee. I hope your day was spent with some joy.
I spent the last 30 minutes looking up hot flashes. It's been a 100+ degrees for many days. Yesterday and today, I have felt feverish around 2:00 ish. I could be getting sick, but then I thought it might be hot flashes. But, the temperature rise while significant is too small to be detected by a regular thermometer and the fact that I was 101 when I got home seems to indicate fever rather than hotflash.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I encourage more people to take boxing classes. It's good for getting the anger up and out.
Also in no news to anyone, I get angry too quickly and really really big. I would have been a horrible abuser in a different situation.
Allergies are bad and my throat is raw from drainage and whine whine whine. Dinner I had been anticipating for 3 days (nothing special, just lasagna at church) was gross and completely unsatisfying.

I do this. It's not good. I didn't used to. I can trace it to my divorce. Not in a "not my fault way" but in a "that's where I got fucked up" way.

Ugh Kat, definitely sounds like a fever, not hot flashes. Rest up and take care of yourself.

Leaving early didn't have much benefit. Ah well.
I do long slow burn angry. Possibly even cold. I don't let go, but I'm not really explosive either. My officemate remarked today that if my eyes shot bullets, there'd be a lot of dead after this summer. ' it takes a lot, but don't piss her off. I had no idea she could be so scary.' Mine is strategic, totally comes from my background. Inwardly, I might go kick a brick wall, but my face to the world is an attempt at biting systemic deconstruction.

Hoy, I'm wiped out. Spent 2 days down in SoCal visiting a Navy base and asking people questions and answering a lot of questions with, "I don't know, I'll have to ask." Which is kind of embarrassing.
Also, I'm a totally spoiled Bay Area resident, because the hotel's free breakfast had little omelets with American cheese in it and I was grossed out. Also also, turns out my dizziness gets worse if I'm doing a lot of traveling and stuff. I get dizzy and a bit carsick and tired. Argh. Healing takes too fucking long.
Virtual {{hugs}} for Allyson, Tom, and everyone who needs them.
Tomorrow's Dad's birthday and I don't want to go over, I just want to come home and do some of the piles of laundry on my bedroom floor. Argh.

Ugh, our poor little toad, Trevor, is not feeling well. We are trying to figure out what to do for him. We've cleaned his cage, made sure he has clean water, even given him some time outside so he gets a bit more sun. I think the next step is calcium/vit D supplements.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
the hotel's free breakfast had little omelets with American cheese in it
Was it a Holiday Inn Express? That's where we stayed as our halfway point while driving down to the beach, and I was taken aback that the eggs had surprise cheese at all. (Although I'm a philistine who loves American cheese on eggs because of how melty it is.)
