Couch 53 Bringing it All Back Home

About a month ago I went to a detox centre. seems a shame to waste my tax money. I'm totally incapable of having just one drink, I don't know when to stop.

I just watched the Australian army chief talking about a sex abuse case in the army. Respect! I do like your PM's attitude as well - I know little about Gillard's politics, but hearing her address misogynists a few months ago was brilliant.

WATCH: Australia's army chief demonstrates how you address sex abuse - The Week

Our armed forces are rife with sex abuse, a couple of years ago it was the navy.

Ah yes, I remember that now. And yes, that makes sense. Good on you.

I'm sure it happens in all armed forces. There are bad eggs everywhere, but it's so important that the people in charge show what's what.

Wish I knew whats what. I need to kick myself in the behind and get over this stupid transference thing. Its consuming me. I should be out with my new boyfriend but here I am ruminating about my T. how pathetic.

I wish I could help. Transference isn't easy. For me it's more parental transference feelings, I guess, and that's pretty hard. I bet romantic transference is much more difficult.

It is. I just don't understand it, because he looks so much like my brother and it's all a bit icky, and my mind hates going there, but does anyway.

I'm off to bed now. Bet the couch mushrooms while I'm asleep, it always does. Night all.

Feelings suck, plain and simple.

Night night, BPA. Sorry I went all quiet - I had to go AFK for a bit.
I hope you sleep well.

Good Morning Couchkateers!

BPA - driving by your T's is creepy. Restrain yourself. You can control what you do.
Lola - I am not sure you are traveling a good path. Maybe a new T, a different perspective? Come on girlie...don't give in to the dark side!

Rough night...panic and anxiety about death of course. At least there was no visual. The funeral is this morning, I will go to the mass but I asked H that we not go to the cemetery. Really that part is for very close friends and family normally anyway. After that I think we are off to the Farmer's market and maybe our first kayak around our lake.

Good morning, couch peeps!

Sorry you had such a rough night, wiki. Good idea to skip the cemetery part. Try to think about all the fresh produce you're going to pick up at the Farmer's market - and the kayak around the lake sounds awesome.

Woke up in pain this morning. Nothing new. I will soon be getting my daughter up and out the door, leaving me kid free. I still haven't let the agency know that I'm available to work. I'm just not feeling up to it - but I need the income, so I really should make myself available in case there's any emergencies today because the money is definitely worth it (double time). Still have a lot to do to get this house ready for visitors, but I've come a long way in the last few days!

morning .OK normally i don't remember my dreams but when i do it has to be this one.

i was trying to break the record for flipping the most sausage patties .i couldn't do it because i didn't have enough spatulas. there was sausage every ware

wow your fist kayak trip sounds fun

I'm sorry you had such a tough night, wikid.

LOL, granite. That must have been a stressful dream! I'm sure there's a way to make meaning of it - perhaps that you have so many things going on in your mind that you're not able to keep up with it all or make sense of it all.

this is true
or i could have been hugry

Whatcha making for breakfast this morning, granite? Sausage?

Dang...I stay off the couch yesterday and it add 20 pages on the old couch and 7 on the new one. I tried to catch up, but after about 5 pages it got overwhelming.

Working with my dad yesterday went better than usual. He didn't make any comments about my meds or T or that I smelled like cat. He did make a comment about my job with C though. He said that they should be paying me gas money if they expect me to take him to camp and pick him up from camp on the days I work with him. He said I need to talk with them and request it because expecting me to use my gas is wrong.

A-Hole (dad that is)...they are paying me 12 bucks an hour. That is worth using my gas...plus that was part of the deal. It's not like camp is 70 miles away (the other end of the county)...it's only in the next city (about 10 miles from his house). 10 miles is reasonable.

Oh well...he always has to have a comment about something. He always has to have a negative view on things. Why...I have no clue...but he does.

that would be turkey bacon

Good Morning or soon to be Good Afternoon Couch.... (for those on the east coast US)

I slept about 12 hours today. I made the kids pancakes and started the laundry.
Sort of feeling numb today. I would love to go back to bed but I have too much house work to get done...

still haven't heard from my friend in CO.... guess no news is good news.

Hi! H just left to drop the kids off at his parents house.. We haven't decided what we are gonna do yet. I am still in my pjs.. I for one would be ok hanging out at home with no kids all day!

Enjoy your Saturday!!

I hope your friend is ok, RTS.

Have a great day Healed!!!
