and in other news
vincent and i both have strep throat, which is the most painful thing i have experienced in a very, very long time. OUCH. agony. glad vincent didn’t have this sore throat…if he had, i can’t imagine he would have held it together. anyway, i dragged my ass to the care now on friday morning and my test was positive, josh and vin went saturday while i dragged my ass to work, josh’s was negative but vin’s was positive. we got shots to speed the effects of the penicillin. a shout out to josh for holding vincent through his first throat culture and a big huge shot…
also, i have decided to leave the online community that i have been a very active part of for many years. there are a couple of mamas there with very obvious (if you are me) personality disorders and they have wrapped themselves up in a rather toxic game of projective identification with me. it is gross, and as in any classic projective identification, nothing i say can be “heard”, which is exponentially harder seeing as nobody “hears” me, they just read my words and project-a-go-go all over the place. it has to end. so, i am formulating a farewell that isn’t too dramatic-sounding and i will post it here for posterity. HA!
off to knit while my hair dries.
