    Yes Knot, it counts.

    Ok, I've grown up on eating stuffed pig stomach, cow tongue (don't like that one at all - it feels like it's tasting you back) and scrapple. (you don't want to know)

    I've found a locker room with showers and a scrub dispenser a few floors below my dept. Easy access to where I can lock my bike in the parking garage. Also, it's right where my bus stop is in case it's blasting raining outside at the end of the shift. I need to claim a locker and look for towels yet and then the commuting can commence.
    Oh, that's gonna bruise...

    Ewwww - I will stay away from bizarro foods. The closest to "different" for me was Reindeer Stew.

    I'm fighting insomnia this week. Can't figure it out, I wake up at 3:00 and can't get back to sleep for an hour or more. I was dragging at work today, then E asks me if I'd changed something? Why I ask..."Because you look so fresh and rested!" So, perhaps the "walking dead zombie" is my look....

    My arm was especially sore today, perhaps I shouldn't have gone to my Pilates class last night. It was visibly swollen, my friend V brought me an ice pack she pilfered from the fridge. It helped, and I managed to sneak it back to it's spot in the freezer.

    When it hurts you have two choices: hot or cold (i.e. frig or oven).
    Of course if you choose wrong it makes Everything Worse.

    Please hand me a wakizashi. I need to commit hari-kiri right here, right now. I feel like such a clod at work. all my other jobs- fast, fast, fast, and forget the details. This is details, details,details, and eventually you'll get speed. *sigh* I feel like such a f*ckup here. Why must my life be this masochistic cycle of 'unlearn everything you've learned'. ...then 'now unlearn that and do this different' ...then 'this is completely different, so get used to this change, too'..
    to learn to flinch when you see someone move quickly, break yourself of flinching when your partner feels hurt you don't trust them... learn to suppress your hopes, dreams, desires, then attempt to bring them back from the depths you've swallowed them into. Someone said "You take SO LONG to process things" but I don't. It's just that the muscle memory and shadows last far longer in my mind than maybe they should.

    Just...
    pass the wakizashi. CWR, take the katana, you can be my second.

    {{{{{{{{{{Kit}}}}}}}}}}}}

    Here's some butterflies to help you balance protecting yourself with being open to all that the universe has to offer. Been there, done that. It wasn't fun. Have Crohn's now. Hopefully your scars from this experience will not include a chronic and incurable disease! (but if they do, I hope it is one that, with patience will be manageable)

    I am having one of those shaky, feel ravenous, can't stop eating and drinking can't quite think right jittery days. If I were a coffee drinker, even I would recommend that I switch to decaf!

    mmmm Just snacked on a boiled egg, and then 3 Kootenay Krackers each with a slice of mushroom and soy cheese melted on them. They have not reached my stomach yet. I vow to do one more work task before I put something else into my mouth. I can do this, right?

    Hugs and butterflies,
    ~T~
