Huh.
So I just watched the video that’s circulating the web of a young woman hurling six whimpering puppies into the river. And I was in utter shock and disgust. I seriously was about to cry and then I shut it off because I couldn’t watch this person torture these poor animals anymore.
And then I started to type a post being like, what’s wrong with people, etc.
And then I thought to...

Really? In this day and age?
My friend just alerted me to something that was on Perez Hilton’s site. I don’t frequent it often, really ever, so I took a moment to peruse through to see what the big deal is with him and if his fanbase is justified.
And I confirmed why I never caught on to him in the first place.
Now, I’ve made a concerted effort of late to stay away from all celebrity gossip sites (except...

OK? Cupid?
So my coworker LP decided to see what OK Cupid was all about. She had her first…well, I wouldn’t call it a date…let’s say, experience, last night.
Dude showed up in a cowboy hat, which would be fine if he were a cowboy. He wasn’t. He was a 39 year old from Evanston. That’s one.
Majority of what dude talked about was Burning Man. That’s two.
Dude...

The handiest bitch you know...
So when we moved in to our condo, we decided to use a different cable company than the previous owners. There was a huge satellite dish on the balcony that the old cable company refused to come out and remove (“Oh, that’s yours now. We’re not going to send someone out just to remove it.”). The new cable company came to install another dish and we asked them to remove it....

Watching ReHoNJ in preparation of the reunion...
…they’re in It’ly and poor Caroline is watching Teresa’s children.
I don’t like to say mean things about children, cuz most of the time they can’t help it, but for real? Those are the most awful children EVER. EVER. Horrid. Horrible. Terrible. Ugh.

Oh...and...
I did get roofied at a party my freshman year of college. Luckily my friends realized something was weird, got me away from the scumbag who was trying to molest me in my incoherent state, and took me back to my dorm. I don’t remember anything short of waking up in my clothes at 6 in the morning being like, WTF!?
That was fun.
I did get the douchebag kicked out of his frat and his dorm,...

While we're on the subject...
I have one drug story. One. Other than random alcohol and pot use. It was my one night of complete impulsiveness. Completely unlike me. I decided after about two minutes of thought to go for it. For the half hour it took for the drug to kick in, I was silently having an anxiety attack, with an LCD screen saying you’re gonna die you’re gonna die you’re gonna die flashing through...

What does this say about me?
I have a deep love for creepy, dark songs. Have since I was a kid. I remember, at like age 10 or 11, being obsessed with the song “Cry Little Sister” from the Lost Boys soundtrack. Dark dark dark.
I was a weird kid.

I was just home in NY for the last five days, helping take care of my mom, who had minor surgery last week. She was in recovery by the time I was at the airport on my way to LaGuardia and my sister called to tell me the surgery went fine and everything was well, and I had a brief moment of thinking, maybe I don’t need to come…am I just going to be in the way? I was already at the...

Mood switch...
My feeling of failure is palpable. I cannot get a hold of my mind. It’s running in all different directions without my consent or control. I’m just trying to catch it and stop it from moving for a minute. Long enough to get some sense into it.
I guess I’m doing that right now…maybe. Or maybe I’m just complaining.

God, I'm going to be THAT mom one day...
So you all know how I like to watch Jessa on the webcam on the days when we take her to doggie daycare…well, she’s there today, but she is no where to be found on camera. It is a bit confusing. I know that sometimes they keep some dogs up at the counter with them instead of in the main room with all the other dogs, but I always thought those were the dogs that had trouble being around...

That’s how I know it was the right decision.

Insult to illness
I’m so hungry I might eat the medical supplies in here.
Stethoscope anyone?
Anyone? Anyone?
Been sitting in the exam room at my doctor’s office for 30 minutes. I think they have forgotten about me.
This is not the first time this has happened.
I need a new doctor.

The automatic flusher!
I know that the germophobes of the world prefer not to touch anything as disgusting as a public toilet flushing handle (myself included), but that’s what your foot is for. The automatic flusher, like a well-meaninged grandma, comes on a little too quickly and a little too often.
I don’t need you to flush before I even sit down, toilet!! And no, that little...

True love...
So, as you might be able to tell by my posts of late…I’m going through a bout of anxiety. It’s been taking its toll in weird ways; my mood shifts are very powerful and not so much fun.
Last night was not a good one. I spent some time raging at therapy after work and that was helpful, but I could tell even as I left (with some good counseling in tow) that the panicky awfulness...
