Take a lesson from me. Don't slice the tip of your thumb to the point of needing five stitches while making dinner.
Dammit! There goes my evening plans.
It's all about choices, Faith. The ones we make, and the ones we don't. Oh, and the consequences. Those are always fun.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Yikes! And thumbs are so awkward to work around when they are injured. I'm sorry, Noise.

Ahhh, so sorry, ND! I felt that viscerally when reading. Yikes.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I guess I won't even *make* dinner, now.

What's the point if there's not arterial spurting?

Hell if I know.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
(I wrote here a long post and then accidentally closed the wrong windows and boooo that. I'm OK, I'm tired, I'm livid at my government, and here's a video of a pup reuniting with her person, both survivors: [link] )
Edit: OK, ate something and can post more. Today I'm tired because I spent half day doing things my government should have done shopping and packing emergency supplies for Arab and Palestinian communities in the south - some were directly effected by the attack. Anything from diapers and baby food to pads and dry food. I'm very grateful that work pretty much let us not work most of week and understood that we're in shock and grief.
(550 bodies were not identified yet, but so far today I didn't hear about anyone else that I knew and was killed. I'm not checking the lists with the names. I can't).

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Been there, have the dead nerves and scarring to show for it. Do not recommend. Hope it heals quickly.

Thank you for the video Shir, I needed that cry. I can only imagine how much you are doing just to keep it together.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
By now I figured out that the new routine to function is to wake up up every morning, reach for my phone, read some updates and cry a bit, and then start the day. Because every morning I wake up and for a moment everything feels almost normal. And then I remember.
