My chest gets all tight. I fill up a couple of water bottles and turn off the fans and lights and go lie down. I ALREADY slept twelve hours, a nap is not likely. I think, well a healthy person would leave and go see a nice cool movie, rent a car, do SOMETHING. Im all, well im not a healthy person, am i? I had PLANS (for chores) this afternoon. If i go out, ice cream will jump in my mouth.
45 minutes later, another email, electricity was never turned off, repair was performed anyway. I made coffee and im trying to get my heart started again! Maybe a 2nd cup of coffee will do it.
So my advice - the powers that be just want to see that youre at least THINKING of handling the situation better than your old ways, and they will reward you. Work WITH the magical thinking! Dont throw the baby out with the bathwater! So sayeth the church of unaluna  |
I hope you've gotten your heart restarted!!
And, waiting for the other shoe to drop yes. that's exactly how i've felt the last coupla days. but it's true, about at least thinking of handling the situation better than my old ways, and actually i am so far, i did not start freaking out or crying on the phone with him, I just said I love you and get some sleep and hopefully you'll feel better after that, maybe it's just a stomach virus. I didn't start the magical thinking til after I hung up the phone. so at least i didn't make HIM any worse like I used to do.... and now i need to learn how to work WITH the magical thinking as the church of unaluna sayeth.... surely there's some points earned somewhere for not freaking out on the phone like I used to would have.
(Life would sure be boring if we were normal, wouldn't it?)
