Couch 137: Jung's Obsession

Evening couch.

I am home and fed. Now I am catching up on the couch. I can't believe it is a new couch already.

CVS went pretty well today. I woke up before my alarm as I didn't clean last night and went to bed instead. Need to try to clean tonight. I have to work tomorrow. Should be time and a half. That'll be nice. Hopefully, it will not be crazy as it is me all day and one other person for 4 hours and that is it. Maybe people will stay home to be with family.

In other news...some of my co-workers today told me that I was odd because I did not think the guy in Walking Dead was cute. Eh... I don't know why but I don't really find guys or girls cute. It's like I am not attracted to either one of them. What would that be considered? Asexual?

About to just give up n curl up in a ball at work

Thanks LT!

I wonder if my t ever thinks about retiring; she's going to be 67 in about a month. Whenever I mention it, she says she wants to still be working when she's 100. She's pretty passionate about her work. But who knows...

Festivities with the Israeli friends

(((jDNA))) I felt like that yesterday at work. Almost started crying from the stress at one point. It's so dumb that I don't apply everything I've learned about Shamanic healing to my own stupid self when work makes me wish I was a roly-poly bug.

i'm very glad my T is only 43.

Home from library and goodwill. I got several more books. Lots to choose from with T. Now I just have to hide them before wife gets home. Why??? because well they're picture books and I'm embarrassed/ashamed about having them, wanting them, and wanting T to read to me.

I brought my favorite book from when I was little-little to t one time - it's called "Becky Ann Visits Storybook Land" along with my little stuffed animal dog that I've had since I was 2. I held my dog and read the book to t. I wish now I'd asked her to read it to me... I hadn't thought about it at the time. I cried while I read it to her though because I just love the story so much even still at 54.

(eta wow I just looked it up on amazon and it's for sale there for $95!! holy smokes!)

Disney Springs tonight

SO beautiful!!

Just felt like sharing a pic of my drum. I need to paint the handle of the drumstick-thingamabob, it's rather plain. Or maybe next time I go hiking look for the perfect tree branch on the ground to recycle and use, I've seen others do that.

H nicked my hat (deleted )

Nice hat, Echos! Looks like you guys are having a blast on vacation.

(((Squirrel))) eeeuuuwww! ALL the people on the walking dead are dirty and creepy! i dont even take a shower every day and i say this!!

(((Elio))) what i find interesting about rereading my childhood books, is that i COMPLETELY blanked out the stressful parts. Theyre little kids books, how stressful could they be? Still, i remember the sweet and easy parts; the hard life parts - a kitten gets lost for half a chapter? - nope!

I'm really glad I ended up on the summer school list. Ive spent the majority of spring break lying in bed, doing nothing. I can't imagine what I would devolve to if I had 8 weeks off.

I can't wait to go back to work on Monday.

H and I started streaming 13 Reasons Why on Netflix tonight. We watched 5 episodes out of 13. Gotta take this one slow. Such a sad story.

The only children's books that I remember (before the Ramona books that I loved to read) were "The Little Engine That Could," "Are You My Mother?" & "Where Did I Come From?" Oh wait, and "Put Me In the Zoo." That one was awesome.

My h won't watch it because of what he's heard about it. I watched all of it though.

My son's favorite book for a good while when he was little was Richard Scarry's How Things Work. I read that to him over and over and over. He had a lot of favorites, he loved being read to, and I remember he would bring me stacks of books to read to him.

My youngest loves Put Me In the Zoo!

I don't remember books before the box car children and I was reading those. I don't remember being read to at all. I don't have many memories from early childhood, so I'm never sure if it is a lack of experience or lack of memory. I went to daycare and kindergarten so I'm imagining in one of those locations books were read to me.

I loved a series of biographies that were written for children. While they were very male-centric, I read all of them.

My grandma read to me

I read a lot once I learned how. Once I got old enough, I remember my grandma gave me all the Nancy Drew books that were my mom's when she was young and I read all of those, loved them.

My grandmother gave me my mother's nancy drew books too and then I read all of the ones I could find. I never got into the hardy boys although I tried a couple of times.
