How Jada watches TV
i’m just sayin’
A phrase that is used when someone is offended by something you said. This phrase then removes all the offensiveness of the previous statement, making it all good.
Ryan: That chick has nice tits!
Rob: Damn, that’s my sister!
Ryan: I’m just sayin’
Rob: Oh, okay, it’s cool.
10 days.. and I’m not looking back
Today marks 10 days since my last semi-dose of Effexor XR. It is also 14 days since my last full dose of it as well.
How am I feeling? Good !!
I still have lingering effects of withdrawal but they are negligible. Some light dizziness when I stand up or cut corners. I’m still short tempered with the kids as well. This week will tell if that has gotten better. This weekend was not so bad, tho. We don’t go out much so if I didn’t lose it with the 4 of us indoors all weekend, then that’s a good sign I think.
I’m definitely able to focus better now. No doubt about it. I can pick one direction, and just go. Few things distract me. Except, of course, for the sounds of the girls banging, screaming, yelling, crying, whining and complaining. Those things would annoy me on any day, but my ability to cope with it was nearly non-existent when I stopped taking the meds. Also, a change in my own behaviour is in order with that. I ignore the kids a lot and I’m sure a lot their behavior is their way of getting my attention.
Everything I do between 4pm and 8pm affects my life incredibly. That’s my time with the kids, that’s my time keeping house, that’s my relationship building time, errand time, cooking time, bath time, homework time. The problem is, that I neglect all of it every day. I have an addiction to the computer and the internet and I choose that over everything else I mentioned …every day. This is one of the things that feeds my depression. It’s tough to change. Really tough. Really REALLY tough.
bats in the cave
visible clumps of nose goblins, often found clinging to nasal hair.
"you need to blow your nose, you got some serious bats in the cave!!"
piss in the wind
Doing something that is a complete waste of effort and time for which you can expect no results and may even backfire on you.
Telling the president that invading other countries is unpopular with many voters is like pissing in the wind.
Can it get me a price comparison list too?
I fell asleep last night with my laptop teetering precariously on its side and leaning on my legs (I was laying on my side on the couch). Then I woke up this morning on my back. The laptop had slid off the couch and landed on the floor on its side. I tried to turn it on but it couldn’t find a bootable device. MAJOR GASP. I mean like… this is how we lost the hdd on the old toshiba laptop. And this time I don’t have a backup copy of my pictures and videos anywhere else!
Thankfully it was nothing. The hdd had just slid out of place with the fall. It just needed to be reseated. THANK GOD.
What prompted this post, however, was that as soon as Vista booted up, it graced me with this message:
I’m impressed because although I have seen low battery alerts before, I had never seen a low battery health alert before. I would imagine that clicking on the middle button would take me to a Dell shop site with a listing of batteries? Let’s see….
Oh big surprise! It opened a browser tab to this site.
I beleive Dell has my Cc info. It really should just go ahead and order a new battery for me. You know, to save me the clicking time.
