The Couch 145 : I Stubbed My Toe On the Sofa.... COUCH!

In regards to the praying mantis challenge, RoboT would just laugh and relate it somehow to my subconscious fear of him disappointing me.

I'm glad that you aren't taking the hours, Squirrel. It sounds like you really need to take care of yourself. Here's to hoping that Wednesday comes quickly.

I have to say I do like noticing things that show me how much I've changed since starting therapy with current t. Yesterday for the first time since I was a little kid I wore a sleeveless top in public without feeling self-conscious. It was really hot outside yesterday and I had to go grocery shopping, and it's a really cute top besides, so I just did it. I usually wear a t-shirt under it, but too hot for that now. I actually felt so confident wearing it by itself, I'm going to do so more often.

I get the, "what's it like to feel that?" or simply "tell me more"

I agree with the others Squirrel I'm glad you're not taking the hours too, so you can rest and take care of yourself. You did well today. Take care of you now.

My t will be like "and... keep going..."

Yeah, not sure exactly whereabouts you are, but down here at least, 95 is a zoo right now.

Just got for the most obvious response

I'd probably get a:"aaaand you're telling me that you're not angry at anything?"

I get all of these. I can even picture his stupid lovely face saying them. Ughhhh...

Never had that. Does it come on the sandwich or do you order it separately?

Just ask for it precaryous. It's the best sauce. I should have went there for lunch instead.

That's another M-ism too... one time, only once, L said it... and I got all irrationally confused and pissed because it's an M thing, not an L thing.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh shoooot. Trying to get south to Cape Cod-ish. I was semi prepared for traffic but also hoping folks had skipped town by now... Leaving in half an hour. At least I have good company, a violinist with seeeeeeriously good gossip skills.

Now I want Chick-fil-a! And I'm sorry the mantis bugs give me the absolute creeps.

I'm so tired I'm stupid with it. I will sleep well tonight. I will not nap tomorrow. I will not be stupid tired at work on Wednesday.

That is all, carry on couch.

@@, I guess it could be. What you said makes sense.

Just still hard to deal with the thoughts.

ETA: I thought I saw a comment from you about pdoc, but now I can't find it. Maybe I imagined it.

Aww. Sorry. I genuinely think they're beautiful wonderful creatures (though I probably wouldn't enjoy a mantis/human hybrid so much), but then I am a bit of an amateur entomologist.

I hope you have a wonderful, refreshing sleep tonight!

can't stop farting

my coworker is coming over. gonna make swordfish filets

((JD))

I guess I should get chopping away at cleaning. I just need to muster the energy. Just have to tell myself...the earlier I get it done, the earlier I can go to bed.

I did make a comment but when I do it from my phone they sometimes disappear when I close the app. You didn't imagine it.

Okay, thanks for clarifying.

I was listening to this in my head with the guns and bells and then ... Hang on! This is the finale from Pictures at an Exhibition!

I have to say, it works just as well as the 1812.

Potato salad is almost done, just cooking the bacon....

Good company on trips is always fun!
And I can't speak to what traffic is like there. I'm 500+ miles south. All of our traffic is people traveling into D.C. for the show on the National Lawn.

MMMMMMMMM I'm coming over! I love potato salad, I think I'll make one tomorrow. Thanks Art!!

I am in a mood for wings and fries. Maybe I should head to the local wing joint to eat an early dinner. There's no major sports stuff going on right now is there? I don't want to go to find it packed.

Eh. I'll take my chances. I want wings and waffle fries (not to be confused with Chick-fila nuggets and waffle fries).
