Put preventatives in place when you are not manic. Otherwise, when it feels so good and you plan to do ridiculous or outlandish things, you just laugh and do them. Or at least that's what I do and am doing as I type this...laugh like an ignorant fool...but I am still coherant and just goofy--sorry, I don't usually cuss but it was needed there (you'll have to use your imagination). Is that ok? I don't want to get kicked off. But it doesn't matter what I say anyway because my hilarious opinion is of lttle value. Have you ever heard of Ani Difranco? I used to listen to her all the time because I was a political activist but I don't listen to her any more because I am not liberal anymore. But, anyway, she has a song called Evolve where she says "I walk in stride with people much taller than me, partly it's my boots but mostly it's my chi." Anyway, for some reason it reminded me of this post, or maybe it's because I just heard it but anyway, lol...even though I don't listen to her often anymore, you should check her out. She is a very talented musician. But, I have to run, my daughter is sick and I'm having a hard time getting over myself at this current moment in time. It is probably terrible that I find myself ridiculously hilarious but I know I'm probably not. lol.
