Couch 204: The Refactorable Couch

They all got a big laugh out of it at the drs office, and they did NOT offer me another one to take home.

Musta been an ACTING poop-test hander-outer, not approved by the Senate...

My life must be getting back to normal. I used to often say, these kindsa things only happen to me!

Ok thats just rude and disrespectful.

Can someone remind me how to change the title under my name (like if I've hit certain number of posts)? Trying to find it in profile and failing.

It's under Edit Your Details on My Profile. I haven't, because I can't figure mine out.

I have the worst headache. I'm used to migraines, but this one is definitely a headache. At least the shaking seems a little more under control. I'm having shivers though, like my temperature is off. I'm sorry I'm whining, especially as it is my own fault for not taking the medicine. My former boss stopped in today. She said, "Can't the doctor get you in today?" And I was like, no, I'm lucky that I got an appointment and I'm not just on the cancellation list. She said, "You know better than to stop taking your medicine." I said, "I know, but at the time it seemed totally and completely logical." I'm starting to feel really depersonalized. I think that's the right term. It's definitely a dissociation type feeling. Work is stressing me out today. I feel like I can't cope. I just want to cry. I want to lay on my bed and cry and then just sleep for like 900 years. I feel like I'm losing it.

SlumberKitty, I'm worried about you. Please call your T or Pdoc if things go downhill. HUGS!!!!

thanks! (8 char)

I was feeling a little sorry for this guy, but this is beyond the pale. I hope you said "Did you just snap at me?".

Her head swivelling be breakin the internet

Actually i think the couch is swivelling!

Eta - i have to confess - i snapped my fingers at someone once, it was probably in a restaurant, i was a young adult and new to the outside world, probably much as this young man is. You imitate what you see in movies. Then the world educates you.

I was completely fed up with this caller one time when I worked for the local cable company. She was screaming obscenities at me. I whistled at her to try to get her attention. She then really lost her mind at me.

she deserved it though in my opinion!! seriously I don't know why I didn't go "oops, I must be too stupid to work this phone properly" click

Does he still have his fingers?

If the answer is yes, you have amazing self-control.

I also felt sorry for him, but not anymore.

Student Advocacy woman was useless. Don’t know why I expected otherwise. It was like she didn’t even read my report.

He makes a suggestion to her what he could do about his questions that I suggested to him ten days ago by email and he never responded to. Kid may be a manipulator to boot.

He’ll probably whistle at me next and I will go ballistic. Not only am I not a waiter, I am not a dog.

So in exciting therapy news, I'm being referred out. Again.

@@ - Unconditional Positive Regard Why cant he just hold all his questions til the end of class? Thats what profs have told my antsy butt.

How is the rest of the class handling it?

And what is a freshman doing in such an electivish class anyway? Why isnt he taking english comp. calculus, and world history?

Maybe your first guy came back to work? We liked him. Its been a few years.

It’s a 100-level course that fulfills a couple general requirements. Plus, it’s myth, so the kids think it’ll be bedtime story hour. They’re in for a shock.

I’ve asked him to wait till the end, but apparently he has to dash off to torment some other professor on the other side of campus. Hence my earlier idea that he make appointments with me.

I don’t believe in Unconditional Positive Regard. With students, I believe in Positive Regard Conditional on How Much They Are Currently Annoying Me.

ETA: other students give him a wide berth.

I hope they appreciate that you love them as much as you love your lover

Eta - that is really bad planning on his part, classes right after each other. I would enter that on his permanent record. Cuz thats totally blowing the best solution. And its something hes doing to himself. Its like hes un- accommodating himself.

I am cooking a mashed cauliflower cubed ham and cheese casserole.

No turnips?

My ha1c was down like .7, i lost 5 lbs (lets hear it for wearing sandals!!), and i will get my blood test results this week. Mr dr thought i was doing okay. He liked my idea of going on vacation to get a weeks worth of ECT. I told him i needed a reboot.

Did you get an unused poop test?

I've had a terrible headache since my session today and I'm feeling nauseated. Still nothing got resolved with my mother-wanting-to-visit issue. I don't know what to tell her! He asked at one point if it would be helpful if he were to write some suggested responses out for me and I told him probably, but I don't know if he's actually going to do that or if we were supposed to do it in session. I'm struggling with wanting to SH tonight.

No! I think they were too embarrassed! Besides, i dont waste a single effin calorie. I GENERATE fat out of nothing, like those air plants. They should effin send me to effin Mars. I could enrich the soil there too.

Get a voodoo doll and stick pins in it. Im getting the urge right now, just hearing about this. I dont mean to make you feel guilty, i just UGH! appreciate how horrible this is. I cant even visit my hometown without feeling guilty, and while its not exactly Disneyland, it IS a vacation destination.

ATAT - I don't know if you are a trader joe's sort or not -but I hear their ABC (almond butter cocoa) gluten free cookie bars are quite good. I haven't seen them at my tj's yet but I am going to look for them. People on a trader joe forum have been giving them thumb ups.
"Trader Joe’s Almond Butter Cocoa Bars—which we’re affectionately calling ABC Bars for short—are sweet, salty, and sure to satisfy. They’re pocket-sized squares of oat-and-rice-flour-based, chocolatey dough (made with real cocoa and a dash of almond butter), sweetened with fig paste and filled with almond butter. They’re like our PB & J Bars’ chocolatey, almond-y cousin. They also happen to be gluten free and vegan"

That sounds delicious. I'm hungry. If you hear a knock on the door, it's me. I just followed the yummy food smell and ended up at your door.
