Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Doesn't he legally have to give you 24 hours notice?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

If you can get him to commit to a time (or even a time frame, like 12-4 or whatever), I'll come over. The only part of my week (every week, I mean) that's booked is Thursday morning from 10 to 11, for therapy. The rest of my week is flexible.

Thanks. I really appreciate it.

Just let me know. And, honestly, I can probably come over even if it's last-minute notice, even if I have to bring my work over.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'm not completely sure when I'll be leaving -- it's pretty much just once I finish all the stuff that I need to do here, so maybe the week after next or something -- and he said for me to email him a week before I go, so that he can come do a walk-through.

Well, my day sucked. Possible TMI, but really, whatever. Went to a gynecologist appointment this morning, and realized that, unsurprisingly, anxiety attacks and pap smears are unmixy things. Started crying on the table (this has never happened to me before), and she didn't do the exam. Then went out for lunch (at a restaurant that I keep remembering as being better than it actually is), then came home and fell asleep. And slept for a few hours longer than I should have, and missed my appointment with my psychiatrist this afternoon.

Now I'm eating some chocolate. If it helps with Dementors, maybe it helps with this.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

You totally deserve chocolate, Hil. I hope it helps.

Ann, that's a ferret.

"Chocolate" is never the wrong answer.

OK. Plan for tomorrow is to deal with the clothes on the floor in my bedroom, and to call my psychiatrist and apologize for missing the appointment and reschedule. This is a plan that I can do.

I'm sorry, Hil, but I'm glad you have a plan. That always helps.

I was hella productive today. I just finished a short course of steroids because of my asthma, and they always make me productive for some reason. My pain is better, but I'm also just less overwhelmed by life in general. I can see what needs to be done and actually feel capable of doing it. I really wish steroids were a long term solution.

The reason I'm not teaching this summer is because last semester was really stressful and I needed a break. So much for that.

Well, once I finish up with these appointments and clean the apartment, I'll be leaving town. Maybe then my stress levels will decrease.

Sorry to hear about the anxiety, Hil, please go easy on yourself
