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

Truth.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

OK, now it's just like I'm stalking Burrell, b/c I just quoted her in Bitches too

This. This. I am right there with you. I'd break but there's no on who's job is taking care of me, so it'd just be making my own workload tougher.

I cannot even comprehend how all you with families can keep getting up every day and take on not just your emotional health but theirs as well. Seriously, I am in awe. I can barely get up to deal with my (pretty insignificant) shit some days and... Parenting, good parenting, is so tough and I admire the hell out of you all on this board. And it breaks my heart when you get to the end of your ropes and feel like you're failing. You're not. You're all amazing.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The magnet teachers are Reynolds or Calpin.

I can't be the only one who misread this as "Reynolds or Captain."

I have interwebs again!! Hooray for Optimum helpdesk people who actually help!

Definitely not the only one. Took me several tries to parse it correctly.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Truth.

Do people have therapists? I keep meaning to get one, so I know it's not that easy, but it seems like a really good idea!

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I just spent 12 hours in the theatre and did not hear a single phone ring! It is possible! Why can't people manage that for a 90 minute show?

I'd imagine the crowd for a 12 hour Greek tragedy marathon might be a bit more committed to the immersive theatre experience than the average person who walks into a show off the street.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I have had. She was pretty good for me, but she stopped taking my insurance. You can probably find a list of therapists on your insurance providers' website, and then just call and see who's taking new patients. My method was always to start with the one whose name was coolest. "First I'll call...Dr. Rock Wolf."

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Urgh. Because Gary may have a cold(he's congested) I had to handle all the feedings and diaper changes last night. Which ended up with 1 am, 5:15 am, 7:30 am and 9:30 am.

Not a very restful night.
