msbelle: Talk and post more! Here because I prefer to spend my time here. Better than punching people, probably. I don't think I had a lot of mood issues when I was menopausal, but it was a while ago. The things that seriously alter my mood are sleep deprivation, or hunger. It happens infrequently because I work hard to avoid those conditions, but my family notices right away and suggests I fix it.
Excuse me? Who gave you permission to exist?

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.

Similarly to Hulk I operate generally with a lot of anger, always have. It just doesn't look like anger outwardly most of the time.
Yesterday someone cut me off and dismissed my CORRECT assessment of what we needed to do in a work situation and I wanted to leap over my desk at him. From our coworkers expressions, my face made those feelings clear. I have not recovered yet. Throat punches all around are warranted, I think.
So I'm staying in my office and have the radio on, but my mind is just spinning.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I have moments like that. Fortunately I work at home.

Tomorrow is my blessed blessed work from home day and I hope I can reset a bit of the rage. My plan is to get some food in the crock pot in the morning and have meal prep for the week done by bedtime.

Maxing out the deductible is a freeing experience.

If you have maxed out the deductible you may be close to hitting your out of pocket maximum. Your wife should check that for you. Once you hit that cap you pay ZERO out of pocket. I hit that 2 years. If you have also see how many therapy sessions ar covered and then go as much as possible.
Unfortunately, I'm well away from the out of pocket maximum. Well, I suppose overall that's fortunate.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Hitting the deductible is still pretty sweet. (I mean, "sweet" in the sense that "The US health care system is gouging those who can more or less afford to pay and killing those who can't afford to pay, but hey, if you can more or less afford to pay, hit that deductible and keep getting health care until your plan's year ends!")

Just voted in the MO primary. The election volunteer kept thinking I had grabbed the wrong ballot because the number didn't match the Republican ballot for my precinct. Took a second volunteer to help the realize the number didn't match because I picked up the Democratic ballot. I don't live in the most liberal of places.

My precinct in Florida is quite blue, but it was a bit jarring when I looked at the map for where I am in Otter Lake. 77% voted for Trump. I walk around thinking 3/4 of the people I encounter are deplorables. My immediate family and a few friends I know to be sane so I keep reminding myself that a good percentage didn't vote and might skew that statistic.
