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

I am also among the legions of the exhausted. I would tell you all how often Jane is still waking up at night, but I might start to cry, so perhaps best if I don't let myself think about it too much.

At least my winter break starts tomorrow afternoon. I don't know how much longer I could have staggered along like this.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm on the fatigue/anxiety/rage train lately too. I don't think it's just the season. It's not that I'm not looking forward to all the things that are happening in my life in the next three weeks* but I will be rather glad when they're done and I can relax and go back to a normal routine.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Ugh, Kate I'm sorry. I will admit I was so tired this morning when ltc woke up, that I just stuck her pacifier in her mouth and managed to get an extra half hour. She seems to be waking up more from the teething pain then she normally would.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

So much anxiety. Went to a party last night, and I had to flee after an hour.

I never take a whole Ativan because it knocks me out cold. Last Friday, I took half an Ativan before a party, because this group of friends is notoriously loud and chaotic and exuberant, which makes me want to claw my face off. About 10 minutes after we got there, I took another half an Ativan because the alternative was punching everyone in the throat.

The Ativan did not knock me out, and we still had to leave after about an hour, because...no. God DAMN people, you do not need to act like howler monkeys.

We were at the same party. On different nights in different states.

Wormhole.

Worst. Wormhole. EVER.

Hope things calm down a bit for you, Tommy.

All your sleep are belong to me. I was so drowsy last night I barely made it through American Horror Story, then slept for 9 hours, woke up, and slept for another hour and 15 minutes. Also had a dream about Chris Hemsworth breaking up with me. No fair, subconscious, making me go through that without first dreaming about sex with Chris Hemsworth!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That is brutal.

Tommyrot, maybe going home is the right call? Sometimes you just need a break.

Glad to hear that, Sara! Of course they want to keep you, come hell or high water. I'm sorry you're not feeling well for the next five days.

ION, I'm thinking about getting my aunts some kind of cat furniture for Christmas. I figure, they have three cats, so doesn't that mean they could always use more cat stuff?? Anyway, does anyone have a specific recommendation for anything that costs $50-$75? I started looking at stuff on Amazon, but basically anything I clicked had reviews that said it was only good for tiny kittens.
