Where does your wife work, Gud? Not actual company, but what is the set up? It seems odd to me that you are doing IT work at an office.
You know me! I'm like, "Go school! It's your birthday!" Or something to that effect.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Clever woodpecker then!
I hope no one minds if I make anxiety posts the next day or so. Oh look autocorrect knows "posttraumatic".

Boy, DFW is a shithole.

Man talking loudly on Bluetooth with his mortgage company. Doesn't sound like an amicable conversation. I sympathize, but he also sounds like someone who'd try to sell you on a pyramid scheme.

To stave off anxiety.
There's a post I saw on Tumblr that's a drawing of a person picking up and hugging this round squishy creature, and the idea is picturing your anxiety as something outside yourself that you can calm down when it gets all freaked out. I've tried it this week, and it actually helps. (I also tell it "I gotchu, baby girl," but that's optional.)

I mean, to be clear, it doesn't make my anxiety go away, but it dials it down, which is enough.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Peace, Biscuit, and comfort to his humans.
Congrats, flea, and salute to your reflexes, Matt.
Sympathies on the illness, msbelle and mac, and oh yes, exec dysfunction, so familiar, so much fun.
Have a good trip anyway, Zen.
Yeah the loud drumming is actually mate-calling. "Bachelor, here! Reeeeeaally good bachelor here, all you hot woodpecker chicks, come check out *this* drumming action!"

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I'm sorry, Liese.
Congrats, flea.
