Going, going, gone, you're moving away from me, but I feel you closer.

You and that Couscous sure do sleep a lot. :P
I'm sorry he's not okay right now. Same goes for your mom. Same goes for your colleague. It was so immature. Regardless of what I'm watching, if I'm disturbing someone, I'd turn it down. Maturity is an issue there and you shouldn't feel too badly about it.

I hope it all gets better for you soon. <3

Hahaha, it's true. He's just so great to snuggle with! He usually only sleeps on top of me if I'm already sleeping, but a few times recently, I've been reading and he'll just curl up on my stomach. I don't know if it's a Pavlovian response or what, but I swear, it puts me to sleep.

And, yeah, honestly, I HATE when people do the, "Oh, this YouTube thing is hilarious, you've gotta watch this!" because I almost never agree and then I have to sit there through five minutes of not-funniness. But if it's something that's just outright offensive, maaaaan...get this stuff outta my face/ears.

Thank you! <3 I hope your own new year is going well so far.

Couscous is a great name for a cat. Hope he's feeling better soon. And I completely share your dislike of confrontation.

I love it! I wish I could say I thought of it, but he came with the name. He originally belonged to my ex's parents and they had been watching a lot of the Food Network the week they got him and decided Couscous would be a good fit. Somehow, he couldn't be anything else. And thank you! He's being monitored for one more night at the vet clinic. If everything continues going well, he can come home tomorrow. Here's hoping.

And it's the worst, isn't it? I'll suffer through some pretty awful shit to avoid confrontation, but I'm working on that. It's a constant uphill battle and usually leaves me shaky and doubting myself, but I'm going to keep trying, dammit.

Thanks, I appreciate it! Adam will be picking him up from the vet, so I'll pass that along to him. Anything to avoid seeing my little baby in so much pain again. He should be back tomorrow, as long as he continues on the road to recovery tonight.

Ugh ... I know this feeling. If something like this confrontation happens, I end up upset for ages, even if it was not my fault, if I think that I was totally in the right. (Worse even: sometimes I get upset about online behavior that I am not even involved into, but my brain keeps going through the situation.) So: a lot of understanding. And *hugs*

It really sucks, doesn't it? Re: the online behavior, yes! I do this, too! I have to tell my brain to stahp sometimes...it mostly doesn't listening.

Yeah :( Sometimes it helps to say "NO" to myself really loud. But not always. And honestly: it's a bit of a strange thing to do when among people ;)
