Couch 83: In a world where...

good morning couch (yawn) hubby has the viral thing that's going around here a nasty cough and he's miserable, so apparently wants to drag me along with him down misery avenue, during the night at one point I sorta half woke up cuz I was hot, and very innocently and quietly moved the blanket off of myself. He BELLOWED at me (scared the crap outta my half-asleep self too) "I'm sorry you hate it, I'll go sleep out there!" Of course that woke me up the rest of the way and I said "no, I didn't say anything, I was just hot!" I didn't know what to do so I just sniffled quietly to myself and tried to go back to sleep. Which of course I couldn't do. So it's gonna be a long day. Well, on a positive note I do get to talk to t tomorrow. Gotta get to work. Have a good day all.

omg I remember dr ruth .iuse to sneak as a kid and listen to her on the radio .I was fascinated because it was about sex . then I saw her on tv lol

One huge financial stressor has finally been resolved. Hallelujah! Feel like I can breathe again. It has been the main cause of stress for me for several months now, but now I can take that one off my plate.

It's exam week, so other than grading the rest of these critical essays (about 30 to go) I'm coasting through this week. I start with a new batch of students next week. Not sure that's a good thing. This has been an excellent bunch of kids; they'll be hard to match. That also means we're officially halfway through the school year. Time flies.

Edited to add: Great news!! My department chair just walked in and told me they have changed my schedule for next semester and are giving me all AP classes. Fantastic!! I have longed for that for years! It's about time!

LIFE IS GOOD!!!

I can recognize her voice but I don't recall ever listening much to dr. Ruth or what she was talking about when I did hear her.

I only listened at the time because it was taboo lol I probably didn't understand much of what she was saying lol

Next time kick him in the shins.

Well, it wasn't necessarily a bad thing - I tend to have a delayed emotional response to things.
It was kind of a big thing for me to contact my T just because I wanted to... Weirded me out a bit...

Ah ok. Well I'm glad to hear that.

I'm delayed too in that regard. Things always hit me later.

Hi CE!

Hey! Stop stealing my ideas. 😄

Anyone use naturopathic remedies for fluid retention? I think most of the weight gain from the olanzapine is fluid as I have puffy ankles at the end of the day and look 6 months pregnant. This is partly due to my dicky heart which is not quite bad enough to operate on yet. What have you tried? Did they work.?

Not stealing. Sharing. Good ideas need to be shared.

If SD were a dog I think she would be a Bearded Collie. Hope she doesn't take a flamethrower to me for this observation based on nothing relevant. ��

OMG my shark is hungry!!! Is that why the game is called HUNGRY Shark????

I am awake, the girls are still asleep. I am spamming the couch because it is too early to wake them up.

I've just realised if I slow down and look at the little onscreen keyboard I will see all the punctuation marks that I need.

Just came home from choir practice. Bach's B Minor Mass is simply glorious.
Not looking forward to T tomorrow, but at the same time it seems like an age until I'll be there.

Has anyone else utilized people's names on here as verbs? I periodically discuss with my T stopdogging. I use it as a noun and an adverb as well -- talking about my inner stopdog, or describing how I went all 'stopdog' on the person, etc. There are a couple of other people I do it with as well; I just thought stopdog was the most likely to realize it was a compliment/lighthearted and not intended as offensive. My T has started using them as well. Sometimes he even steals people's phrases that I have told him I think are funny. For instance, I forwarded him the thread about orgasms in therapy, and his response was, "ACK ACK ACK."

4days to go.....blah can't be bothered.

LOL! That's great.

I missed that thread... I'm sure it was frightening lol

There's a game called Hungry Shark? Wait... You have a shark?

I know it is not offensive and is meant in fun/jest.
It is not unokay with me.

And that whole thread had me Acked out too.
People do relate differently to the therapist/therapy than I do sometimes.

It is under romantic feelings towards therapist area.

I would love a shark, but maybe a wobbegong or White tipped reef
It's agreat game but if you forget about it you get many notifications. Also it didn't work well on my Android phone works better on iPad.
