I'm a vision of hotliness, and how weird is that? Mystical comas. You know, if you can stand the horror of a higher power hijacking your mind and body so that it can give birth to itself, I really recommend 'em.

Because books.

I hope it doesn't affect getting the new apartment.

Stephen's worried about that, but in my opinion it's none of their business. We were approved, he'll have unemployment income, and the rent will be paid. I can more than cover rent with my income, anyway, so I decided it's not an issue. I don't know if that's optimism or blind faith, but it's what I've got at the moment.

I have no # cake. Sad.

Amy, I'm sorry. I hope Stephen is able to find something else soon.

Our wings are not tired.

Oh good, yeah, since you we're approved already than you should be good!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I think you are in the right of it being none of their business, Amy. I'm sorry about the layoff and hope S can bounce into something else.

Sharp cake?

Or hash cake.

I can't think of a low-carb way to approximate pound cake that doesn't sounds disgusting. Someone have my share this year.

Amy,

I am sorry to hear this..

Because books.

My biggest takeaway is that my ADs are definitely working, because I'm not crying, and I'm not curled up in a ball in the corner. Go me and pharmaceuticals.

Thanks for your support, everyone. It's so fucking good to have people to talk to.

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

We are here to be fucking good for you.

Damn, I have a million last minute meetings for this new guy, and it's making me miss other meetings (not in a I-didn't-show-up-to-give-her-meds way, tho) and I'm all turned around. This one guy missed a meeting with me last week, and now I missed the rescheduling with him this week. Yoinks.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Ugh. The universe giveth and the universe taketh away. Stephen just got laid off. Which isn't a surprise, since the paper declared bankruptcy and probably won't exist in a few more months, but still.

I am very sorry, Amy. But glad that the ADs are letting you deal with it so well. That's a really good thing.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Shit, Amy, I'm sorry. I hope something else good turns up soon for him!

ita, I'm boggled by how many meetings you have. I have like one meeting every two weeks and I'm annoyed at how much of my time it takes up.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My biggest takeaway is that my ADs are definitely working, because I'm not crying, and I'm not curled up in a ball in the corner. Go me and pharmaceuticals.

Woot! (Although crying is a legit reaction.)
