I love everyone. Just sayin
I am not (at this moment) drunk, so take it while you can.
It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

ita's thread
A place where we can talk about ita, miss ita, and share information about memorials. The hugging started over here in Natter.

Let me point out that many friends -- even good friends! -- would not be providing the kind of support to the family that you are doing. And it's because you are smart and resourceful that you are able to do it.
Yes, absolutely. And I would love to donate to the scholarship fund.

lol, msbelle.
I was given half a xanax by someone at work because today is incredibly stressful, and I realized that possibly anxiety is the only thing keeping me going, ever? Because the stress is gone, but now I can't seem to think of a reason to stay awake, at all. Not sleeping is a total waste of time.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I am often fueled by anxiety, raaaaage, and caffeine, and nothing else.

I so get this. Though my anxiety often trumps my rage, but yeah.
(That really belonged in Natter, sorry.)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I think of stress/anxiety being the only thing holding me up like internal water pressure is the only thing holding flowers up. When it all drains away, I collapse.
I would like to donate to the scholarship fund, too, when it's ready. That's a wonderful thing.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Anxiety does the exact opposite for me. When it really kicks in, I can barely move.

That's me, too, sj. Anxiety paralyzes me and turns me into the world's worst procrastinator.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Seeing her parents tomorrow is going to break me, I'm afraid.
You will probably all be broken together. That can be comforting in its own way.
Have I mentioned how much I love the scholarship fund? It's a wonderful idea. I plan to make it a regular destination for donations for a long long time.
msbelle, I keep thinking but not posting the same thing. I even slur a little in my head although, honest, not drunk.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Once it's set up, I'll donate myself and help spread the word on this to fandom and to the Women in Tech community.
Same here.
You're still smart and resourceful, like all have said. This is the kind of thing that takes every single brain cell and resource to deal with.
