Re: Bipolar Check-in #80

Re: Bipolar Check-in #80

I'm worried now about visiting family.

Hi all. I could really use some encouragement. I live thousands of miles from my next-of-kin. I love them and miss them. I believe they do care about me too. However, going back to visit hasn't...

Re: Couch 248: Curiouser and Curiouser

Re: Bipolar Check-in #80

My mom somehow found out about my novel. I don't know how! She doesn't have Facebook and I certainly didn't TELL her about it. My mom and dad are strict, conservative Christians. My novel is an LGBTQ...

Re: Couch 248: Curiouser and Curiouser

Glad you like the fish! And yes, I like the plants, too. They won't all make it to the new office. I was touched when he said the ivy was a cutting from his grandmother's plant.

Re: Dear T: I really need to tell you something XLVII

Dear T,

I'm sitting here, crying about a couch. I know it's not literally the couch, but what it symbolizes. You're taking away my literal seat, before I'm ready. I imagine it's about loss of...

Re: Couch 248: Curiouser and Curiouser

I'm not good with plants and just bought a big peace lily, which is supposed to help with mold/mycotoxins (as long as I don't overwater it, which shouldn't be an issue, as I'm much more likely to...

Re: Couch 248: Curiouser and Curiouser

I’ve been binge watching the remake of interview with a vampire. Such a toxic relationship Louis and Les had.

Re: Couch 248: Curiouser and Curiouser

For me unkempt/ unhealthy plants demonstrate neglect. From the 8 or 9 plants I bought when I first moved into my new place, two are currently still alive. Both are desert plants from Ethiopia (snake...

Re: Couch 248: Curiouser and Curiouser

Re: Couch 248: Curiouser and Curiouser

Yeah, he has lots of stones (in other spots in the office, too), which is why I asked for one ages ago. The brown hugging statue doesn't seem to fit with him at all, as he's said he doesn't like to...
