Couch 171: Scams R Us

They had the strawberry Hagen Dazs ice cream on sale at my supermarket, just when I decided yesterday to stop eating so such sugar. (I did obviously buy itttt) xD.

And I thankfully I also checked my other debit card, which I rarely use today, oddly enough I' m -50p in the red and have until the 29th to balance it without being changed.

LOL - no, this one i did entirely by my own sloppy procrastinating lying bad self!

You rang?

That explains so much...

Be still my butt!

Thats how i was parented. Its probably how he was parented. If something goes wrong, its your fault, so how do you control it / stop it from happening next time? "Dont touch fire!" Yeah kinda primitive. You wonder how they ever made it out of the cave. Well, i didnt have kids, so ultimately they didnt.

I love you Unaaaaaa. I don't think your bad.

Thanks Lemon, I am.


"talking" through stuff on the couch is so helpful!

I could read the panic in your first post. I'm glad the others were there for you.I'm sorry I wasn't much help yesterday, I went to bed early at around 8pm.

I wasn't on to see your posts last night Art, hope you are okay now.

Yeah I posted my way through a bit of a panic attack been quite awhile since I had one that took over like that. I'm fine now I felt and worked through it mostly on here.

I’m now super tempted to follow Faulkner’s lead in sending in my resignation letter.

just ran across an interesting word: catoptromancy - foretelling the future by means of a mirror.

I am being particularly lazy today. The only thing that I accomplished so far was to hard boil some eggs. And that will likely be the extent of my productivity.

I tried practicing self care instead of self harm tonight and as I was crumbling a song started playing that gave me a little bit of strength to resist. Keep Holding On by Avril Lavigne.

Thanks, whisper...that struck a chord with me.

I've been playing a couple of songs on repeat over here.

- Amos Lee
'' - William Prince [gorgeous preamble about Nick Cave - TW for discussion of death/grief]

I've been listening to a lot of music, mostly Natalie Taylor and Shawn Mendes.

First thing I thought of was the Mirror of Erised from Harry Potter.

Music often really helps me, too. Glad you found something that spoke to you.

Making me look bad. I need to go hard boil something so I can catch up with you.

I boiled rice and coffee for breakfast, so im up to speed.

Not together, I hope? New kind of risotto?

No, just lazy writing! It was an espresso!

It might just work — I just had some coffee mochi.

It was pretty decent (although I was a tad more focused on getting every last drop of the plum wine — that exhausted my efforts at being a productive adult for the day.)

I guess I better go boil more than water to catch up. I slept a lot today.
