Oh, smonster, I’m sorry.
Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

((((lisah)))) I can't add any words of wisdom, but I'm holding you in my heart.
Continued love and support to Nilly and Shir.
((((smonster)))) I'm sorry you're dealing with that. I do think getting away from emotional or financial manipulation (aka abuse) is crucial for your well-being. I hope you can take someone with you when you go to get your things, which it sounds like you are planning to do. Hang in there.

Oh, smonster, I’m so sorry but I’m glad you’re recognizing what’s going on and taking care of yourself.

I'm so sorry, smonster. Be gentle with yourself.

Very glad you are looking out or your own wellbeing, smonster

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Thanks, everyone. It sucks so hard. I am resourcing myself - getting a key from a neighbor in case they show up here (I’m not worried about physical danger, just emotional manipulation). Meeting a friend at 2 pm. Plans for Thanksgiving. Making a plan to get my stuff and my cat back this weekend with friends (one of whom is a very, very large Cajun).
Totally dreading talking to my dad about this.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm so glad you still have your apartment.

today one child has been singing the same handful of lines from Total Eclipse of the Heart on repeat for the last 9 hours
That is just magical, and gave me a much-needed laugh.
In me-me-me news, I got an excellent year-end review and a raise! Now if I could get today's meeting schedule to settle down, that would be awesome.
