Hide the forks. Bury the knives. Say hello to Gopher for me.

Of course, you get anxious when you have anxiety. Can I get a “Duh” from the choir?

Denying it might be a good idea just long enough to let people get away from the silverware drawer, but I think in general it’s a better idea to ride that wave of freak-out until it face-plants you in the sand. It’s better than drowning in it — the undertow can be fierce.

You are such a fanstastic writer, I feel like adding.

What is this “patience” you speak of?

I really do miss you, the in person kind. I hope we can move beyond the twitter ether sometime soon. I always seem to have a fork in my purse (and I usually wish I were kidding about that but in this case absolutely not.)

Holy crap balls! You sound exactly like me. I wrote last night’s post in third person even. I’m leaving my office shortly and going home to have frozen pizza and martinis for dinner. Think that will help my shitty mood?

I know what you mean. It happens when I want/need change for myself and I can’t comprehend why the whole world around me isn’t changing right alongside. I think backing off and getting perspective is good, but do it somewhere fun.

I had the same weekend. Plus a few cocktails and marathon Deadliest catch. It works for a minute… a little.

Watch a few episodes of those Atlanta Housewives On Demand. I promise they will make you feel like the most normal, patient, sane, well spoken, well adjusted person that ever lived.
At least that’s what works for me when I’m in a fork-throwing mood. At a minimum they may lift your spirits enough to make you switch to spoons, which would only leave minor flesh wounds.

Forks, cages, toileted phones, and bikini-cake notwithstanding, that you have self-knowledge and the presence of mind to know when you are raw and in need of self-care (or closeting) speaks volumes about the quality of your character.

May you walk out the other side of the cutlery parade soon, and with head held up, proud.

Nah dawg. Get the forks back out. I have a former spouse I’d like you to meet.

Start by taking deep breaths. But definitely hide the forks.

I love it when you write like this.
