Is any couch better than none? Welcome to Couch 41

Yeah, it's making me a little nutty, like I needed any help.

Lola, is this is an if you want it it's yours or a you have to interview for it job?

Finally, the headache I have had all day today is gone. What a relief. Maybe it is a good thing T cancelled. Truth is, I thought about it when I got home b/c I wasn't feeling greatest. Probably wouldn't have been the best session.

Rainbow - I've been to House on the Rock. The Infinity Room is a bit freaky though...

Lola - The problem with me doing anything that involves shaking is that my arms don't stop shaking when I do... I will spare you all the horror.

If I started now, it would probably bring down plague and pestilence, so I shall simply send you good thoughts. I believe in you.

It is not usually wise and in some places not allowed by statute (there are exceptions and rules about this depending upon the state), but it is not unusual for a parent/family member to ask nor for them to not understand a refusal.

Well I'm not sure..... My boss was approached saying I was a perfect fit and they wanted to talk to me. I call the hiring manager and he says, wish I would have found you a year ago and I came highly recommended.Can I meet with you this week? My boss saying great, its a good opportunity, tell me what happens. He said we would go over the time line and deadlines, and see what we thought... So I guess an interview, sorta..?

Sounds like an interview but they already know they like you!

Check-in from me. I can't sleep, because I have been way too active at night. Will have art therapy tomorrow today really as it's in the middle of ht enight now).

Lola, I hate decisions so for me I usually do a pros vs cons list...

Then I weight the things that are more important to less important and then see if there are concessions that would remove a con...

Then maybe discuss it with T?

Lola - to me this is the best kind of interview. You can get information from you boss, and you already know the company and they know you. In more ways then most prospective jobs, you can interview them.

Hi Astridetal! Art therapy sounds like it would be helpful. I am not an artist but I love to color and I find it so relaxing.

So I sent T a text. Ugh. It's a disease. I should have come here so somebody could have told me what an idiotic idea that was.

I am trying to find Super Mario Brothers to play online... so far everything I tried is junky. Also... playing a game you learned on a game controller on the computer keyboard is not as fun.

I have a feeling I may be up this evening as well. How do you like art therapy? Even though I live in a city, I haven't been able to find art t near me. I think it is something that I would like a great deal. At the very least I would like to find an abstract course that does not require on to be an advanced student.

So T replied. She mirrored back what I said. She said "I'm sorry you feel" then restated what I'd said.

That was awful.

Stopdog is right. In most states, you cannot write a will in which you are a significant beneficiary. My mom asked me to write up her will and I declined and explained it to her, but drew up her powers of attorney. So, she retaliated by having her powers of attorney re-drawn to exclude me and and she said since I couldn't do her will, she thought I couldn't be on the power of attorney. I was actually relieved not to be on there, but her distortions of the truth are a bit annoying.

In case anyone needs a mindless activity tonight, I found one of my favorite Apple IIe games online:

Taipan!

My middle name is mindless...

I have to keep reminding myself this game is from the time before mice and the internet....

I tried playing it.. I don't get it, lol!

Hey... do I get anything for reaching 2,500 posts? A code to a secret passageway or something

You have to wait until 3000 posts. Almost there though.

It's super slow. Basically you buy stuff, sail somewhere and try to sell it at a profit... meanwhile you are being chased by pirates that you have to fight off.

At the moment I have no guns...so... umm.... yeah.... the fighting part is not going to well.

That would be annoying to me as well. I am thankful that my brother is a rare good guy in my family, and that law or no law he wouldn't have taken part of writing her will. I just find it typical of my mom to ask him. Maybe it's not fair of me to say since I don't have children, but the thought of having direct family writing something so important, personal, and emotional makes me feel kind of queasy.
