I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

This algebra review page also looks pretty good, and it has a lot more examples. [link]

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Waiting to board the plane home. I signed all the offer papers this morning. We hope to come in 24K less then my limit, so that is nice. I am bouncy, but having to hold it in.

I think it's weird that she and the nanny are going to hang at your house for an hour before everyone else arrives.

It's karma coming back to kick us, since we start 1/2 earlier than the other family whose house we use, so they have my girl there.

Our county laws require time and a half for any nanny working over 40 hrs, so while my DH and I are able to flex our schedules to stay under that, not everyone can. So, yes, we have to be flexible. It's not terrible because they'll be down in the playroom, out of the way, and I'm at work by 8 a.m., so it's not like we wouldn't be awake. You'd better believe I made it clear to her that 8 a.m. was the limit, and that she couldn't creep any earlier than that.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Congratulations, msbelle! We won't spoil the secret...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Ugh. Called in working from home. I'll try going in in the afternoon, but I'm not feeling optimistic. Man, I was just in the ER Monday morning. I need the new plan to take effect sooner than March, which is when I have my appointment with the pain specialist. My eyes are crossing.

I am desperately curious about what's involved in sex addiction therapy.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

They sit around not having sex?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

It's amusing to me (not haha amusing but odd amusing) how there is something wrong with me that even though I understand how destructive and serious addiction and recovery need to be taken, yet I totally pooh-pooh sex addiction as just one's inability to keep their pants on. It's so not right, it's just as destructive to lives and drugs or alcohol, but I have this odd "SNL-type" rehab in my head where everyone Tiger Woods encounters in rehab is a big chested blonde and when he goes a day without hitting on one, he is cured and can go home.

It is so very wrong of me and I feel like an asshole for thinking it, but I wonder if I'm not too far off base as far as what the typical impression of sex addiction at large.

Does any of that make sense or am I just justfying my large with the asshole attitude?

Trust my rage

Aimee, my attitude is very similar to yours. Maybe I don't understand the difference between therapy and rehab (rehab=more intense therapy) but I feel like the word rehab makes it seem more like drugs or alcohol and I don't see it that way. But I may well also be an asshole.

Our wings are not tired.

Nope, I'm pretty sure it's Tiger who is the asshole.
