120 is the atomic number of Unbinilium, an element yet to be discovered.... um, so how does it have a number assigned to it....

Welcome to the couch, old and new! A place to hang out - sometimes you get immediate feedback, sometimes you don't. Sometimes you feel like a nut... sometimes, well.... which kind?

---------

Shouting, "Cool Whip" tends to bring others out of the cushions if you're feeling lonely.

This is a chatty thread. All are welcome. We're kind of psychologically oriented, sometimes. We try to be supportive. At times we discuss what that means.

It’s a place to plop down on the couch when you come home from work or wherever, or wake up in the middle of the night, or check in at lunch, rant a bit or not, and be among friends.

We advise you not to drink or drug and text your therapist ("t") - we speak from experience....

Sometimes the thread moves fast and you might get overlooked; sometimes it moves slowly and all you hear are crickets. Sometimes you get hugged or thanked pages later. So if it's a bigger question, you might want to start a new thread.

Excellent, I can now stop being a Precious Moments figurine and become an element on the periodic table. I call tungsten (74).

I actually went to college with a girl nicknamed that.
Thanks for this!

Uh oh. I don't know science. Not sure what element I would be. It would need to be a sparkly one.

Y'know I was just thinking. It really is awesomely cool that we can all sit 'here' on the couch, from wherever we are, and have so many wonderfully random conversations.
Thanks for this!

Why can't people just help you without going on about what a big deal it was to help and how they went out of their way to do it. Why do I feel obligated to do something other than give them money for fuel and thank them. If they had something else they would rather be doing my shopping could have waited until my car was fixed. They offered to drive me. Am I being ungrateful.?

I hate that. I help people (a lot) and fuel money and a thank is actually really truthfully ALL I want in return. And maybe in the back of my mind I hope they will pay it forward someday. I hope your car is fixed soon, I detest being housebound!

What the heck?

Which Chemical Element Are You?

You got: Phosphorus
You're quick to react and like to hang around outside and be with nature. Sadly you may soon be in short supply, so make sure people don't take you for granted.

I'm thinking Beryllium + Erbium. (BeEr.)

Also, any fans of very short stories should look at this - it's 118 science fiction stories about each of the known chemical elements. I think they are absolutely brilliant, and they are very, different from each other. Delve in, do.
Thanks for this!

Random Saturday tasks for today: take off the trash (me and the lady working at the dump shared some laughs last week), buy groceries, do laundry and get rid of 90% of the piles because they don't fit or have stains and rips, and start the torture that is shopping for school clothes with my youngest.

Hope all of my Couchies have more fun today than chores!

Radium for me.
People are drawn to your charm and inner glow, and so they should be. But be careful, you could accidentally hurt those closest to you.
