Couch 124 - Discussions & more!

Oh i thought Reagan proved that! Or dubya.

Eta - i just finished reading todays Onion. I feel better now.

I just got a call from a prospective No. 4 who called me three different names in the course of a 40-second message. None of them were right. Could she neither check my message nor my greeting? Or at least pick one name and stick with it?

A rose by any other name...

(Sorry, it was really too bad to pass up)

Hello couch. Living in the republican south, voting for what I want didn't do me a bit of good. I'm just gonna crawl back under my rock now and not come out for the foreseeable future. . .

I still feel like the election has yet to happen. It's going to be a ***** when the denial wears off...

I should not be reading CNN.

Yeah, I had to back away from the news media for a bit...

God save the Queen!

I am amusing myself by envisioning the expression on her face when she first meets the new President.

Its also helps to be rich, white, and (nominally) Protestant.

Citizen Trump may have sold himself as an outsider, but he is just as much a son of privilege as Dubya was.

And let's face it, neither Hillary nor Obama was born in a log cabin in Kentucky.

In other news... W has got a new job for next year. She's so excited she can't sleep.

She'll whack him with her purse if he gets near her!

well the henna is on my hair, so we'll see in an hour or so how it looks! excited.

Thank you guys for the support last night. I cannot express how much I appreciate it.

Can't wait to hear or see!!

Thank goodness for sisters who remind me that my mother is coming tomorrow to spend the long weekend with me.

The apartment's pretty neat, but I'm still frantically cleaning.

Hubby is pleased. I don't think it looks all that different, I couldn't really see the grays anyway, since they were mostly the top of my head and the back. It's pretty close to my natural hair color pre-gray. I'll get a pic tomorrow outside in natural light! I'll say one thing, it sure smells a whole lot better than that chemical stuff I used in the past! I like.

I'm pissed. My role in the extended family (huge Asian family) seems to be "dustbin".

Was given another ....ridiculous ...not used for years... musty old clothing item from one of my aunt again. Happens every few months.

Last year for my birthday too - red and gold baggy pants that were way too big.

Half my room is filled with sister's crap spanning more than a decade. Feels overwhelming to sort it out. I'll fill bags and bags and bags.

They aren't even COTTON so I can't cut them up to use for rags.

I'm going to reuse what I can, maybe I can use as them as ribbon for gift-wrap or decoration to jazz my gift-wrap up.

Very hard to refuse these "gifts". I've said no a million times. They pass to my mother then I come home to it.

They STINK of mothballs. And I am so fed-up of getting junk as gifts. I won't even donate them because they're hideous.

Er for three hours now. Crisis center probably next. In scared and just want to go home

If you don't mind sharing where you bought it I would be interested. I'm using a box color and it dries my hair out so much. Many nights of coconut oil to try and repair.

So. You did the blue? Just curious.

Really hope you get the help you are looking for and need. If you need to talk we are here.

Email me if it'll help.

Going to take a break for a bit. The politics are overwhelming me. I hope for peace and strength for all those that it is causing chaos and disturbance for.

Released. Under the condition I make an appt with my pdoc tmw.... That's funny. She's out on maternity leave til March. She said she would be available in am emergency for me so she didn't assign me to anyone to cover while she's out because she was going to be there.she isn't there. T is pissed as he'll that she's not there for me. So I have to figure out how to get into the clinic and see someone tomorrow or go back to the er. I just want to be at home with my puppies and my pillow and my bed.

Hugs Ellahmae and TrailRunner
