OK, I'm a fan, now.

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

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Shit, I have no idea when I took my last dose of Sudafed. Except that it wasn't, like, an hour ago.

Gud, please call a helpline or go see a counselor. If not for yourself, then for your kids. This has to be hell for them too.

Gud, I really hope you can get some help. Your wife is being abusive.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
All the local schools are closed for tomorrow, but I got an email that we're open. Boooo. So I hope it's not actually 10 inches.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman
My company decided to have a policy of never closing the office, because everyone has laptops and can work from home if there is inclement weather.
Which I am ambivalent about. On the one hand, there is some credence to that, but OTOH, I was always annoyed when the office was closed and we were expected to work.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
As far as I can tell, my office is either open or closed, which I do appreciate. And work from home is pretty accepted, anyway -- one of my team emailed me last night that day care is delayed, so she'll be late, and I was like "Don't come in at all!!! I mean, if you want..."

My friend Ricki posted a live video from Boston about 6 this morning while he was driving. It was crazy! Be safe all.

Meanwhile, high today is supposed to be 87! (obligatory taunt) Although we do have a cold snap Wednesday where the high is only supposed to be 70. May have to wear socks.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Gud, please, get help. You are in an unacceptable situation. YOU ARE NOT YOUR WIFE'S PUNCHING BAG. At the very least, you need to be able to tell your wife that if she doesn't help out around the house, she is in no position to complain about what you do and what you decide to leave undone.
There are counselors. There are peer counselors. There are support groups. Your GP can at least prescribe something to relieve the anxiety.
BUT GET HELP!
