Hey Phoenix! Yeah, I remember seeing your posts recently and thinking it'd been quite awhile since I'd seen you around! Welcome back! This thread is a good one!

Here's a couple more that came to mind: (and in purple in honor of your return...)

...When you're an adult and your mother* gets exasperated at hearing about something you're up to and derides it as yet another one of your "phases" and all you can do is laugh because she has no idea how right she actually is. For once.

(* Who has myriad substantial psychological problems, but so heavily in denial she'd never seek help as there's "nothing wrong" with her thankyouverymuch. Forget the overwhelming evidence, every bridge burned and that any aspect of her behavior was absolutely positively not an allowed topic for discussion with anyone in the family. So she's about the last person on earth you'd bother to tell.)

...When you go to bed, but your brain won't shut up and you literally bounce out of bed every couple of minutes (seconds, lol) remembering something else you've got to do. This starts to annoy others who don't understand: a) just how fast your brain is going and that sleep is hopeless anyway, b) that you have to take advantage of the fact that your brain IS working now and you can't count on its functioning tomorrow and c) you've got so damn much energy you might as well do it now.
