Pretty cool except for the part where I was really terrified and now my knees are all dizzy.

"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

One more check in the "keep buying fliphones" column for me.

More vivid dreams last night, though not nightmares this time. I was back in college, staying in Felicity-style dorms where one of my three roommates was Angel and I seemed to be the only person who'd realized he was a vampire. A developmentally disabled classmate of mine also showed up aggressively handing out religious flyers on campus, but aside from them all the other people (roommates, the coeds in the opposite dorm/apartment, clasmates, teachers) were people that I have no familiarity with in waking life.

A later dream involved Mom offering to pick up take out food and pushing a place whose ad had a fly on the table in the picture of the food. My reaction was "if they're OK letting customers see THAT, what's going on in their kitchen?"

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Therapy day and in an effort to report doing things I have made 2 out of 3 phone calls for personal stuff I have been avoiding.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Therapy day

For me, too. It is, as always, hard. And, as always, I feel compelled to declare that it's bullshit. (Even though it's helpful. I just hate that it's so fucking hard. I need a nap. And then chocolate. And then another nap. But instead I have work. And then more work.)

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

My morning commute was double the usual distance. Because I finally have my home office set-up. Ok, it isn't all set, but my desk and other officey items are moved out of my room and across the hall. Ahhhh, I have so much room now.

Teppy, I didn't have therapy, though I probably should, but I'd ADORE and nap, chocolate, nap sandwich. Instead I have work/laundry/work/grocery shopping plus more that I can't even think of. I got off of using my bullet journal during the trip that wouldn't end and I'm kinda waiting for the next week to start clean.

Oh, and I JUST realized that my computer was still on Pacific time, so I just "lost" an hour. Ugh.

2 of the 3 calls resulted in Nothing. Msg left with school counselor and I did not have all the info required for the IRS for the person to open my file (still working on resolution to get my 2014 refund).

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

I'm kinda waiting for the next week to start clean.

I keep doing that and...it's been like a month and a half. Not good.

Good job making the calls even if you are not getting results, msbelle.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm trying to expedite the person who's scheduling my steroid shots. She's working on it right now, and me calling and nagging her will probably not help.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

We had a mandatory all-staff meeting on Tuesday ... our big boss has mastered how to cut off the one guy who likes to blather for extended periods of time AND cut off his displaying tiny unreadable charts (really - dark gray on light gray is NOT a good idea). But I am always surprised by the number of people who cannot sit still for extended periods of time - twitching, rocking back and forth in their chair, twirling in their chair ... makes ME twitchy.
