I think it is our happy ending. I could be useful up to the end.

Ecocannibalism!

Cultures all over the world eat their dead. It’s a way for them to live on.

Quite right - grands should refer only to very large buttermilk biscuits.

I love one of the cats I live with. I'm his favourite human for affection. He will wait patiently outside my room door until I open it do he can come in.

Ok the birthday cake is ordered i swear if my ex thinks of something else for me do i will scream. I am wondering if subconsciously i have arranged it so i dont have to deal with a party situation? Thank god this is the last major birthday to deal with. Though he was talking about our eldest daughters 21st but i have already promised her money so she can move another state for her birthday.

My daughters cat seems to favour whoever is feeding him but my cat is equally affectionate to everyone.

My ex claimed to have been followed by a member of a head hunter tribe when he was 10 or so while living in Papua New Guinea. But i always thought those tribes lived deep in the rainforest and didnt interact with much with civilisation. But thats just from my anthropology course i took 30 something years ago.

Intense emotional pain. Basically a lot of grief over losing my immediate and extended family. I didn't even like them except 2 of my siblings, so why am I hurting?

Rupture with T is sorted at least. I also forgot AGAIN which days and times she works. No chance for an earlier session as she has Wednesday and Thursday off.

My brother did a mission trip on Papua New Guinea a number of years ago. He really loved his time there and didn't want to come back after.

My exam is on thursday.

Possible trigger:

I've been having suicidal thoughts for the most of today and it's coming up to the first anniversary of M the pharmacist's death (he passed away on the 23rd)

I called my old best friend R in tears. We fell out three years ago and didn't talk to each other in between that time. We made up in july last year. I've known her since first year- but I still didn't expect her to come over straight away.

We walked outside my building, I was in my pajamas and it began to pour down with rain so we got soaked. I'm grateful for her and for everyone here who also kept me afloat.

I composed an email to R but haven't sent it yet. Edit: sent it now

I have an uncle who said he encountered headhunters also, during WWII, i believe, in Africa?

Lana del Rey has this lyric that comes to mind for me now reading your post :" Can you picture it that life we could've lived?"

Glad you made up with T.

Big hugs, Lemoncake. I hope walking with your friend helped a little. I wish for you comfort and love.
