Interesting ways in which my stress manifests...
My ribcage gets itchy.
My lips turn a bright shade of pink (coincidentally, this also happens when I am overhung. Not sure why. Any ideas, Dr. Ashley?)
(anyone else?)
Things that are worth it...
Renter’s Insurance
“AT&T Smart Limits” (Did you know that for a mere $4.99 you can block incoming calls/texts from certain numbers? Very handy….I’m just saying.)
Going to bed early
Rinsing your dishes right after you finish using them

Hey Trillas....It's Julie's Birthday!!! →
Julie was one of my original tumblr crushes….
She is the girl who’s closet I’d most like to raid, who’s dinner table Id most like to sit at and who makes me blush beyond belief with her commitment to bathroom humor.
Happy birthday dear Julie! I am counting down the seconds to our first real life meeting- to your Birthday Bonanza Brunch! I can’t wait to give you an...

Random Acts of Meanness
Yesterday afternoon, I was crossing the street…
compliantly, I promise (adhering to the illuminated walk sign and respecting the boundaries of the well-marked cross-walk)….
So, I was caught completely off guard when a hurried driver tore through the intersection and yelled at me through his open window:
“HURRY UP DUMB-ASS”

Weekend Thoughts
I.
This weekend was for catching up.
I wish catching up implied caught up.
But I can’t complain.
Inbox is emptier, Apartment is cleaner. Load is lighter.
Prepared (enough) for a new week.
II.
This weekend was for friendships.
An in-apartment dance off with my best friend, my husband.
Undercover happy hour at an unmarked location where an unnamed friend and I drank intricate...
In which we file a complaint
Our favorite take-out food is Sushi. We order it often. Often enough that Kamahachi is on speed dial and our credit card is on file there.
but but but…
but every time we order, they deliver our food with only one set of chopsticks. Come on! We have begged, pleaded and reminded….but our efforts are always in vain.
1 set. 1 set short.
And it happened again tonight. We ended up...
Swearing increases pain tolerance →
rosmhuire:
Swearing occurs in most cultures - people swear to let off steam, or to shock or insult others. It is also a common response to a painful experience. We’ve all done it: after stubbing our toe, or hitting our thumb with a hammer, we draw a sharp breath and mutter a swear word.

Merry
No one’s hangin’ stickin’s up,
No one’s bakin’ pie,
No on’s lookin’ up to see
A new star in the sky.
No one’s talkin’ brotherhood
No one’s givin’ gifts,
And no one loves a Christmas tree On March the twenty-fifth
