Couch 185: The Labyrinth

Am sick (fever and chills). No Info today. Just as well as I was preparing a tirade in my head last night in bed about how she has never “gotten” me. Like I tell her something like “the way you’re addressing this is overwhelming me” and she just keeps on with that approach.

We really are two very, very different people, he and I. And I never truly could see that before. I think therapy/my own individuation process has allowed that. I do not give him that credit. It was not very nice, you're right. He even prefaced that by saying that he had not been verbally abusive earlier. (He said that on his own, I had not accused him of it although I wanted to.)

Snow looks nice... we haven't had any snow so far, I guess there's some in the mountains but none in the cities.

I decided to cook meal worms and crickets yesterday. They taste fine straight from the package, and the directions said you could use them instead of ground meat.

Have to say spaghetti sauce with worms in it looks weird, tastes okayish but I'd never cook that again... the worms wiggled around while you ate it too, was kind of repulsive.

I don't think I would be that adventurous!

That's a hard no for me.

I'm sorry artie I missed out the word,"don't" in the original sentence, but thankfully you understood me anyway. He may think that he may have not been emotionally abusive but it was still a distressing experience and I think there are other ways to bring up stuff like that and I don't all of those feelings for him can easily be turned off and buried again.

Do you still want to be with him?

Who wants to make the new couch?

I've made the last few (minus the last two

).

That, my dear, is the million dollar question.
