so i just tied it around my chest, knotted it between my breasts, and it stayed and 'held' things in place well. if all else fails, maybe that will work?

Photos or it didn't happen.

You will find that another day you will be in a much better mood. I've had lots of great years, and a few crappy ones, but that isn't the worst thing that could happen. In fact, a lot of good things usually happened, too. Circumspection is a good word for the day.

My gripe of the day today is me - for being a dumbass.

I've been feeling cranky, out of sorts, not sleeping well, etc. for weeks. Three days ago, I thought, "well crap, I know what's happening." So I took some anti-anxiety meds (which I don't take on a regular basis). That's not bad. But in addition, I started taking Vit D again. Three days in, I'm feeling tons better. Of course now I don't know if it's the meds, the D, or both. Brilliant.

GOTD: I'm officially insane, you know, repeating the same behavior but expecting a different result. I get headaches from red wine. I drink red wine, I get a headache. OTOH: As the late great Mitch Hedberg said:
"I like to drink red wine. This girl asked me once if red wine gave me a headache. I said, 'Sure, eventually, but the first and middle parts are amazing!' I'm not going to give up on something because of what it does eventually. It's like getting an apple and going 'Whoa, stop! That's going to be a core eventually!'"

GoTD:
People policing people's thoughts. I know the person in question posted her thoughts in a forum, but she wasn't mean to anyone in real life. OUR THOUGHTS DO NOT HAVE TO BE POLITCALLY CORRECT. In fact, the very act of you shaming a person for their thoughts is hugely hypocritical because to shame someone for doing something like that you would have to be Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior because I'm sorry if you're a human being living on earth, you have thought something nasty about someone you've never seen before. Whether it was because they were fat, skinny, cut out in front of you in traffic, or sneezed on you in public it doesn't matter. As long as you kept those thoughts in your head and didn't say "Thanks for being a fatty, you just made my diet much easier just by looking at you, Fattikins" its okay. You're a human being....sometimes we can be judgy. Don't shame other people because of a natural human instinct to see others and judge them in comparison to yourself. I'm not saying it a great human instinct but i just don't agree with people who say you "shouldn't think like that"

I ain't freaking mother teresa, and if i was, I would probably still be judging you in my thoughts

And in that line of thinking...

There are days when I'm not absolutely 100% sure my son wouldn't have made better medical waste.

Yep. I said it.

No he's not a child in my "care" anymore... no one needs to faint from worry.
He's an adult who has decided to stress me out and screw up his life (and possibly the lives of a few other people too) as much as possible it seems.

Politically incorrect thought for the day.
You are welcome.
Enjoy.

This made me LOL. Literally.

Yeah, veganism is great - I lost my hair, my energy, and my overall general health was terrible - I was an "informed" vegan too, combining for protein, etc. There's a great book by a former vegan called "The Myth of Vegetarianism", from an ethical, economic, and of course nutritional standpoint. The author is Lierre Keith.

Maureen, I love you. Where have you been? I feel like you vanished for a while.
