Blah blah blah anxious-cakes

[hel_ana]

Had an anxiety attack at 1am over what to wear at the wedding, since my first choice is going to take significant work to pull off, using time and energy I don't have.

Found an option that I don't hate. (Note to Arnora: do you have some type of wrap you could lend me, either in black or in bluey greens, suitable for the affair on the 27th?)

Woke up this morning (before the alarm) mildly anxious about the synopsis of a movie that isn't, as far as I know, being made.

I suspect I'm transfering worry about the big scary thing to little, not scary things.

Meh.

Used the extra time to strip the bed, put the featherbed aside, and remake the bed with the surgical sheet protecting the mattress. Switched out the pillows, so the floofy feather ones won't get contaminated over the next week.

With extra meh on top.

Now, I'm off to slice up a lemon, just to watch it die.

Wish me luck.

i've an ear to the ground with the PeeTeeBees. they in turn will keep an eye out for you (though in the PTBs' case, that's generally a literalism you don't want to envision...)

luck o'the Irish to you, love.

Thanks, hun.

Whatever the PTBs did, it helped. :)

Good luck!

Be careful to not remove everything that comforts you in an effort to preserve it all. At least not without considering whether you could use some of it during the icky time.

Thank you. You make a good point.

Fortunately, my bed is quite comfortable without the featherbed, so I was able to sleep ok when I got home today.

And thanks for the hug. :)

If having company would help, lemme know.

[hel_ana]

Thanks, sweetie.

Having the support means a lot. Right now, I'm actually pretty good... actually going and talking to the people helped so much. I feel much more relaxed about the next few days. :)

No such thing as TMI

Right - I've always believed (especially when medicine is involved) that more information is better. Glad you're feeling more mellow about this.

Re: No such thing as TMI

[hel_ana]

I'm right there with you on that.

Of course, I've long been of the belief that *anything* worth doing is worth researching exhaustively before you start, which is why I'm now boring as hell to talk to when the subject of immigration comes up. ;) Not to mention why I'm impatient as hell with idiots who don't bother to research things, go on their merry way, then bitch when it bites them on the ass.

I'm impatient as hell with idiots

I just thought that was one of the myriad reasons I like you - you don't have time for morons either?
