Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I wish I could say something wise, Gud. I just sit here and watch you struggle and wish there was a "repair install" function on the human mind. Clearly one of the library files has gotten a little skewhumpus and just needs replaced with the good copy from your backup.

Yeah. I mean, I'm digging myself out of a hole of illness + the work fairy taking a giant poop on my team. I could be doing something productive, but I'm actively choosing to sit on my couch, drink beer, and watch cartoons.

Running myself ragged just made everyone around me feel concerned and ask me to please go home and sleep.

All I've done tonight is eat some hummus standing at the counter, go to chorus practice, and drop off my keys for my niece (who will be dogsitting for me). Now I am drinking a little whiskey and trying to decide what to pack for this trip.

Gud, I'm glad you talked to a therapist. Please keep talking to them. And consider getting the kids to help clean the kitchen after dinner, take out the garbage, and/or do their own laundry. They're old enough to be learning these basic life-skills, which will help them through the rest of their lives.

(I had a law school roommate who never had to learn to do anything for herself when she was a kid, or even in college. She was terribly sweet and fun, but an utter mess in the kitchen. She kept ruining her clothes because she didn't know how to use the washing machine, and she nearly set fire to the house when she put a hot dog in the toaster oven without a pan under it...)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The chore I did last night was painting my nails. Usually I don't do that much!

Oh, I take it back. I did also take out the trash.

Because books.

I'm stuck on "hot dog in the toaster oven."

Cats are much more chill about being at Anna's today(Loki.) I think having me shower here helped. We'll see in a few hrs. And after I leave them here unattended for about 20 minutes when I run a quick errand.

Poor trauma cats!

My aspiration went fine, no follow up, so that's good. Not as big a deal as giving blood or dental work.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Glad to hear it, Jesse!

Way to adjust, cats.

What I did yesterday after work: fed animals, dined on a chocolate bar and microwaved-from-frozen fried rice, read, slept. Watching TV was too much trouble. And then I got up super late this morning. But now I'm at work, so, yay, adulting.
