Ever just want to tear your hair out, or someone else's? If you cannot restore a sense of balance, you will run away from home? Just want to say some things without the constraints of staying on topic? Well, this thread is for you! If you just need a short break to let it all hang out, be a brat, then come on, you can do it. No holding back! Go for it, you can do it.
I may have a bit of a self-destructive streak going on, a never may care attitude, that only a few will understand. That happens sometimes when I am stretched beyond my capacity.
Thankfully, it passes quickly so I just wait about 3 days, eat chocolate.
That would be behaving VERY badly!
If you don't get it....please, no questions here.
This cold weather will give me time to search for new clothes. Good grief, I hate this weight gain [thanks menopause AND caregiving]. And I hate clothes shopping. Hate it with a passion.
Forget catalog shopping as sizes don't match up... there is no more standard for a certain size. Even with dragging out the old tape measure to be sure. I can find a perfect fit in S, M, L.... go figure.
Are you still running?
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz a nap instead.
"WHAT IS THE NAME OF THE MOVIE WE ARE GOING TO WATCH?"
Answer, "It is not a movie"
"Well what do you want to call it then?"
"It is a video".
Silence......pause.....nothing.....I get nothing................
To pursue it further would continue his game of playing semantics....
"What is the name of the Video then"
"Do you mean, the title?"
At this point I am thinking dH is lucky to be alive, keeping my thoughts to myself.....I get silence.............more silence. After an hour of watching a freakishly slow (something on the t.v. screen) it's off to the bathroom, as he pauses the d*mn thing. Omg.
Am I going to be allright?
He's probably not deceiving you in any conscious way. He's just not paying attention. You have to bear closely in mind that I am now single, and be warned, but when my exSO did that I would move so that I was facing him directly, smile as fondly as I could without breaking my face, and repeat the original question verbatim. I usually got a more intelligent answer, but he seemed to find this threatening no matter how sweet I tried to be. And, more to the point, it didn't make any difference to the next time, or the time after that, or...
Thanks for understanding. With dH, his answer was meant to end the inquiry. The problem must be me. I see these forms of communication as a
deliberate deflection now, or an outright lie, and my patience is further tested and challenged. Why don't people just answer the question? Can a person with aspergers also be a narcissist, I am wondering.
It's okay, it wasn't important this time. Maybe he is working on an alternate truth-not so rare these days.
Sigh.
And the thing is, if you'd said "I know it's Ellie Goulding, dear, thank you; what I *asked* was..." he'd have got all huffy and said you were being sarcastic, no?
Sigh.
Speaking of the evening's entertainment: has anyone seen Moonlight all the way through? I'd like to see it, just not sure I'm emotionally up to it right now. I'll probably dither about it for another hour then decide it's too late to go out...
Sigh.
He answers: "It is just Ellie Goulding".
losing one hour will give everyone else an excuse to miss church on Sunday.
You are always well-liked, however, just because I clicked like on your posts does not necessarily mean I think it's okay to go around beating up your sis! This is not in judgment of you, but I think accidentally spitting food in her face spoke volumes all by itself. Who gets in one's face, so close while they are eating, that some kind of natural consequences would not be expected? You were obviously provoked.
Trying to be understanding here. I do think you have posted on exactly the right thread however. The introduction did say:
"Ever want to tear your hair out, or someone else's?"
Hope you are okay. Growing up, my siblings and I would fight. After standing in the corner as punishment, we would have to apologize, then hug the sibling. There was no worse punishment than the hug!
I agree with everyone to avoid your sis, avoid, avoid, avoid.
MsMadge, Were we supposed to empty the expired cans before tossing them? If I did that, dH would be deprived of going through the trash, AND of arguing about the meaning of the expiration date, AND of eating expired food. He would really feel deprived of the entire process, imo.
Veronica, You are exactly right about having to cook one hour earlier when changing the time. Can't I just pretend to cook during the one hour that will be lost....not cooking at all?
Whenever that day comes........
I love your sense of humor too!
(To borrow a phrase from Cwillie that I thought was so very funny.)
Oh, and the phrase: "Because I don't want to" was borrowed from Gershun.
It's not that I don't have an original thought or phrase, it's that everyone else is so very funny each in their own way, and deserves all the credit.
