The Couch 150: Ceci n'est pas un couch

I'm all for staunchly held beliefs, no matter how abhorrent. But, I shan't abide hypocrisy.

I don't know, I can't say that I'm surprised. Something about Info tells me that she's just a little bit too out there. Probably the latex gloves.

Those werent HER drawers, she was just keeping them for a friend?

Was she? You'll have to forgive me. I'm operating on maybe 3 hours of sleep. H shaved his head this morning and I didn't notice until like, an hour ago.

I tried it out on my laptop first and hated it. It's designed for touchscreens, not for PCs, and they just changed a bunch of stuff that didn't need to be changed. 8 was even worse. I like Windows 7.

My PC (her name is Persephone, I built her!) is fast enough anyway. She's fine how she is!

For me it was the cheeky wood nymph picture.

I'm really mired in gloom today.

I want to be divorced now. I should be divorced now, except future ex has to torture me by literally waiting till a day before his deadline for a divorce by default (after the process had already been going on for eight months) and then hiring a lawyer so we have to start all over again. And now he is apparently playing hard to contact for his own lawyer, so things are dragging on even more slowly.

Words in English to describe the utter awfulness, pettiness, and basic inhumanity of this man have not been invented yet. Torture is his thing.

This is likely a super dumb question but unless you're looking to get into some protracted negotiations over splitting assets, my understanding was that most divorces are quick and simple (incompatibility is all you need to say)?

Sorry if this is entirely missing the point.

trying to motivate myself into loading the dishwasher, finishing the laundry, starting to pack for my trip in a few days, and figuring out what to cook that will leave leftovers for the next couple days.

so far I am failing in said motivating.

As an interested furriner, can I just make a broad cultural observation (devoid of any claim to evidence and like the best of these things, entirely based on my narrow personal experience) that these sorts of contradictions are totally part of how stuff works in the uhh.....South?

Case in point being all the good folks I see around here driving Nissans and Toyotas and Hondas with..........Confederate stickers / flags displayed along with (in case you missed the display) some additional stuff declaring their membership in organizations such as the Sons of the Confederacy and the like?

I will admit I'm a complete d-bag who has two sets of principles for these things -- if I see the display on a GM, Ford or Chevy, I am as respectful of them as I am of other drivers. If I see it on a furrin car, I am a total arsehole and after ascertaining who is driving (it's usually super young looking people) I refuse to let them pass and do other d-bag-y things.

Also - latex gloves - there are some ointments or other issues that might not be visable but would be something where gloves are advised or at are useful.
I am amazed at what others notice about the therapist. I doubt I would notice a stack of latex glove boxes if they were on the table that goes between the woman and the couch for clients. I don't recall what is on the table at all except for a little clock and if it is missing or in a position I cannot see - I just take off my watch and put it on my knee. I really could not describe anything in the woman's office.

My exes kept the down sleeping bags and they thought they made out like bandits. Maybe they did. next time im marryin me a guy with his own dam tent.

I think I notice these things because I am busy trying not to notice the therapist.

Three boxes of latex gloves is a lot of ointment-related activity.
