Couch 144: The contact-miked cactus couch

In other more serious news.. I am screwing my life up, and at the same time sitting back and watching it happen. I am one effed up chick.

Poor sad puppy.

Poor sad Healed

Thats how I felt when my marriage was ending. I just didnt have the energy to stop it.

Hugs to all couchies who need/want. I wish there were some way that I could really and truly share healing with everyone here who needs it so much. I am picturing bathing the couch in healing light. (and it's special healing light that knows who doesn't like this woo-woo stuff and it won't bother them). I love y'all and I wish healing and wellness for everyone.

Maybe I'll go see the Countess.

Thats my go-to sammich snack whatever.

Eta - but omg mine dont ever look that good!

My spouse called - I'm not in the mood to talk. It feels annoying. I've tried to get off the phone a few times, but he didn't get the hint. He's trying to be sweet and right now I don't care.

Thats the 2nd time today i seen the little white poodle. I had an encounter with one recently, i dont know why i cant remember it more clearly - it'll come to me - where the dog was talking to me, and i was laughing, and the owner was like, oh yes she did just do that. Maybe in a parking lot? The dog was so smart.

I love my little babies. Of course only one is part poodle, and he's ridiculously smart. Too smart for his own good.

PSA: if any of you are ever tempted to put bubble bath in a Jacuzzi...just don't. Trust me on this.

I believe in chiros. I saw mine today, i told him i hurt my chest getting my ironing board down off the door hanger, i googled it, something about the Ponderosa. He fixed it, of course. My butt was dragging before i saw him, i felt awake afterwards. And i even saw t before him, so i dont think its just the laughing and the attention, cuz that happens at both places.

Smart dogs know they can talk to me. Its very weird. We just understand each other.

Hugs, CE.

My dad had a similar trauma. Its very tough.

Evening couch. I am home from CVS and fed. I ate my "take-home" spaghetti and meatballs from Carrabba's that I got when I ate there the other day. Hey, it covers all the food groups (I added my own cheese). Meat = meatballs; wheat = pasta; fruit/veggie = tomato sauce; dairy = cheese.

I am bored now. I guess I could go be the first to post a discussion post in my classroom since today starts the new week and no one else has posted yet. Or maybe I can start on next week's assignment and get it done early.

Awww...resident dog just yelped. He is in the other room with his mommy. I hope he is okay.

I need to take my evening meds still but it is a little too early. I will wait till closer to 10ish.

I am still trying to find things to do the 2 weeks I am off from CVS. I will be bored out of my mind. Hope I survive it.

Now to find resources and decide what type of editorial I want to do. Video sounds interesting. I could do an animated video.

I have 2 weeks to do it. I already finished this week's assignment, so why not start next week's? Lol.

Me, too.

I do that.... sometimes on purpose

Can we go back to the magic butter maker? I just googled it and I am somewhat disturbed.

i don't really get it - what does it do, make flavored butter? not sure?

i just got back from a nice hour-long swim, the water feels just lovely lately while it's been so hot out! But the breeze is sooooooooo cold when you get out and run for your towel!! brrr!

there was an older, very buff guy there this evening swimming laps of butterfly and I was closely observing his technique because I never quite mastered that particular stroke. Really, I was. I wasn't looking at his muscles or his tiny little bikini. Not at all.

I too find fit male swimmers in banana hammocks eye-catching. Which is one reason why I no longer wear goggles that allow peripheral vision.

I don't do goggles at all.... I just stare unabashedly when they're not looking. ha!
