A couple of things to try - - take a photo of the item in question if it's got a real sentimental attachment going on but has no possible value in being kept, that way you have a physical memory of the thing without the thing and when you feel that yes, you can release it, you can choose to delete the photo. It's like a delayed release without the hoarding. If you don't want to delete the pic, that's fine too. - thank the item for it's service in your life. Yeah yeah, it's a Marie Kondo thing and I'm not a total fan of hers but the act of thanking it is a psychological thing - it tells your brain that you are fine with releasing that item so your brain stops going off about how you are missing that something for no real reason whatsoever. * * * I was told I need to try using a special wedge pillow to sleep on at night to try dealing with nausea so I got one. Now all my dreams consist of me trying to get some sleep or at least take a needed nap but no one will let me sleep because wedge pillows are the mortal enemies of the side sleeper, apparently.

Gifts suggestions for a few years down the road when the kid can really enjoy things - - tubs of cotton candy - pop - desktop drum set Bonus, all three on the same day is pure chef's kiss. I'm the FUN Aunt.

Another TikTok Challenge for the Mentally Challenged. At least they aren't eating Tide Pods anymore.

All I want to do is maybe curl up and take a nap in a pile of blankets. But I have an alert that there is a package out for delivery today and there's a ground blizzard with Arctic winds going on right now. I can't make nap noises until at least that delivery shows up because the security doors are locked and they'll need to be buzzed in or no delivery for anyone [ I hold packages for the office too when they can't get in so everything stays safe ]. AND my big cup was gross so it's in the dishwasher so I can't make a bowl of coffee with syrups to sip on while screwing around on the internets waiting. # first world problems.

*glares at you while drinking mistletoe tea...

Then again...

Relevant because why not

Caffeine tends to calm me and make me sleepy. I wouldn't drink an expresso before bed but I have chugged one of those Starbucks frappes before taking a nap.

...aka let's get this fail started! Post here your glorious coulda/woulda/shouldas for the upcoming year, knowing full well that your probably already bored with the idea and will just go eat more cheese later. * I will drink more tea in the following year, especially green tea in the evening before bed. * I will probably eat more cheese. Discuss!...

I thought Mucinex is supposed to yeet the snot monster directly out of your system. I'm still coughing so hard I start to have moist heaves and have yet to enjoy a much deserved lung-goober baby abortion.

Velveeta panties.

Meh, I keep having Pulp Fiction flashbacks with every highly unproductive coughing fit - 'What do they call a lungburger with extra cheese in France? A royal with cheese. *coughCOUGHCOUGHWHEEZEWHISTLEcough'

Walking pneumonia and the kitten left me three barfs on the carpet because the box of stuff to mail out was still in the living room touching her sleep mat.

Wrong. The entire movie is basically Bruce Willis creeping around a tower trying to not get caught by Alan Rickman. It's a Harry Potter movie.

My eldest nephew is now super into Iron Man and that's all the very specific things he wants for christmas deal with. And they aren't all easy to find or are currently only 'available' on sites that I really don't trust. I spent so much time hunting for Iron Man things that I'm now having stress dreams about Iron Man - as in I have to join the Avengers, find Iron Man and get him his paperwork so everything can be filed on time. In my dreams, I have less powers than Hawkeye and am still responsible for all the office work. wtf.

Pill hunter has told that same general story at least 3 different times in the past. Each time it gets just a little more 'poor me, I'm the absolute victim' and moves away from the original story that included her being a colossal douchcanoe to everyone in her immediate vicinity.

I realize that almost everyone is wandering around doing last minute gift shopping and all but is it too much to ask for people to go in with a list of exactly what the hell they are looking for so that people like myself that actually do that can get down the damn aisle for a quick check to see if item x is on the shelf or not and then leave? You are practically glamping in the damn aisle. I just needed to look for a specific Lego set and a couple of frickin' dolls. Also, how do you tell a little kid that the super awesome thing they saw on a place called 'Wish' that is also really cheap/can we get it is probably going to end up being 3 toddler skeletons in a trenchcoat?

Children are just the sperm you decided to keep.

The beast already sent me pictures and offered me a free one.

I can absolutely assure you that there is nothing in my search history that would lead to a multi-speed prostate plunger. >.< I think I've seen that guy's art at Dragon Con. It looks super familiar but not in an 'I own some of that' sort of way so it's probably something I lingered over while trying to find last minute gifts. Sort of looks like Poopbird's work.

Happy Birthbutt, Buddy!

Taylor Swift is going to look like current Madonna in a couple of decades, max.
