I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

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

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

Listening to B'istas talk about their progress and insights in therapy has helped me as much as or more than going to therapy myself. So, don't feel bad about talking about your feelings and your progress! You know, for me.

Seriously, though, don't stop talking about your feelings. We're all right there with you, on our own (often very similar) journeys, and it matters and we care.

(Ugh, I hate using the word "journey" to refer to one's life.)

A feelings dump? How DARE you! Are those allowed? :)

I had a 630am meeting today (thanks Europe and time zones) and now it's not yet 8am when I normally start work, but it feels like it's already been a long work day. Ugh.

Our wings are not tired.

I like Tim more every day! I'm sorry it is so overwhelming, Teppy.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

But I feel like recognizing that is progress.

It is, it really is.

This. Also, no apologies. That's what we're here for.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I'm glad Tim is ready to celebrate YOU, Steph. You deserve it.

Zen, I'm glad the bleeding has bloody well stopped. I hope it stays that way.

6:30 meeting and then starting your work day? Yeah, that's a long day, meara.

I've been trying to push her nap back to 1 because she won't be able to nap before that when she starts school, but I gave in today and put her down at 12:30. She fell asleep immediately.

Steph, feelings dumps are part of what we're here for! And good for Tim on telling you that YOUR birthday is special and deserves to me celebrated. He's a good guy.

(Short version: My needs/wants "don't matter" and I shouldn't even HAVE needs/wants, let alone express them.

Therapy twinsies? I love my mom, and miss her every day, but wow, did she give me some messed-up emotional programming.
