I dont know why the reincarnationists call them "past lives". Obviously some of us are living concurrent lives.

I'm feeling a lot better today. I slept so much yesterday but made myself wake up at 7 pm when H went out to drive. Then stayed up until 2:30am. Been cleaning and rearranging my kids' room most of today. Trying to keep myself busy and occupied to get through the weekend.

Ugh, went swimming, headed for the showers only to find

Possible trigger:

a pile of ****

on the floor of my usual shower. I’m guessing one of the kids from the swim lessons earlier today lost control (five feet from the toilets yet) and either didn’t tell their mother or the mother just left it there.

If only ex-hankster had been there to offer a Freudian analysis.

I really hope it was a case of the kid not telling their parent.

On the plus side, at least it wasn't in the pool.

The date last night was really intense. I asked to skip the baseball game because I was exhausted (stayed up most of the night on the night shift and then couldn't really sleep during the day--4h of sleep in a 24h period kind of thing). So we went out for drinks and then back to my place.

TW for is for potential TMI regarding intimacy

Possible trigger:

We didn't have sex--though I would have been okay with that--but we did spend like four hours with each other naked. He said I seemed fragile and asked if I feel uncomfortable in my body which I do. He told me about a thousand times that he thinks I'm hot but of course that doesn't just erase 30 years of societal messaging.

He kept telling me how attractive he thinks I am. That made me think that he's a liar. I'm just not attractive, and if he is saying that he must want something from me. I actually asked him what he wanted from me. I can't remember what he said in reply--I think it was some kind of non-answer.

T is starting to freak out because I flushed my bipolar meds a couple of weeks ago. Since then:

1. I have lost 13 pounds
2. I started new job which I LOVE
3. I"m not willing to restart meds

She basically said via email that she could fill my spot. I'm going to tell her to go ahead on Tuesday. Honestly, I've worked through most everything I need to work through already

I don't have bipolar disorder so I don't know what it feels like--is there any chance that all of this good feeling is the beginning of a period of mania? If so, does that bother you?

susannahsays · Aug 10, 2019 at 10:02 PM

It's your choice on meds, Polibeth, but if you ever have to do something like that again, maybe don't flush them. Not good for the water supply.

I have been plowing through a stack of silly mystery novels and I am always struck by the zeal with which the amateur detective goes after someone who committed a murder even where no one else really cares. I wouldn't. I mean, if they grabbed an innocent person, then sure - no one wants an innocent person in prison let alone hanged. But the ones where the police cannot find anyone to arrest until the amateur comes in and ferrets it out and then goes to great lengths to make sure they don't escape.

susannahsays · Aug 10, 2019 at 10:13 PM

Chihirochild, do you think he was too drunk to get it up? I don't understand why a guy would get naked then not do the deed unless he was physically unable. Unless he's trying desperately to be straight but isn't. In which case maybe he's hoping you'll be his beard.

stopdog · Aug 10, 2019 at 10:18 PM

I would not make any of those assumptions.

unaluna · Aug 10, 2019 at 10:25 PM

I would say its the difference between 20-something and 30-something.

chihirochild · Aug 10, 2019 at 10:30 PM

More TMI

Possible trigger:

Dude had an erection and we fooled around, we just didn't actually have intercourse.

unaluna · Aug 10, 2019 at 10:32 PM

"Enquiring minds want to know!"

i cant believe you put up with us nosy old biddies. Pecking at the one who actually had a date!

Eta - i love lima beans. Its not like we had them when i was growing up or anything, except maybe by mistake. Tonight i fixed them with mushrooms - nothing fancy, just opened a can of each, and omg they were so good. I did also throw in a can of saucy zucchini, but next time im leaving that out. We used to make peas and mushrooms, maybe it reminds me of that. I just love the textures.

Who are you calling old? She shared the details, so of course I had questions.

And there were no assumptions, just questions and my confusion about them disrobing after a date in order to not have sex while talking about how attracted he was to her. I mean, c'mon. Surely they could have just dry humped and called it a day.

Do you think you'll see him again, chihirochild? Or is he a selfish lover and/or a weirdo?

susannahsays · 12:12 AM

What's saucy zucchini?

ETA: My dog has a saucy gleam in his eye. When I was doing research for a paper and reading the AKC breed standards, I learned that chihuahuas are supposed to be saucy and impudent. So I guess he's perfect.
