I took a mental health week once after leaving my boyfriend of 5 years...who also paid the rent...so I was homeless and all sorts of other stuff. 11/21/2013 3:40:07 PM |

I need a mental health day like once a week. Maybe not really that often. But I haven't done anything like that in years because I feel so guilty and have a hard time getting anything out of it. 11/21/2013 5:55:35 PM |

I'll take a mental health month if I feel like it. We weren't meant to live like this. I mean, if I'm shrugging off actual physical labor or a meaningful intellectual endeavor, then that's a problem.
But the hard part of most jobs is enduring bureaucratic bullshit and interacting with people whom you would never otherwise associate. Yes, there's generally a task at hand that's good and important...but I don't think a willingness to tolerate an office for ten hours a day is what our ancestors had in mind when they established notions of "work ethic."
So you should never feel guilty for avoiding what we now call work. 11/21/2013 6:55:33 PM |

On another note, I dunno if I'm looking forward to returning to Zimbabwe in a couple of months. What a shithole. 11/21/2013 7:38:19 PM |

Im not sure but I think a flea got into my cat's eye. Do they even feed on them? Now I'm paranoid. Already gave him 1.5 dose of the Frontline and it's not going away. 11/21/2013 8:00:46 PM |

Go to a vet and ask for a Capstar pill (or buy them on Amazon). Gets rid of fleas in four hours or less. 11/21/2013 8:29:10 PM |

I missed a day of school in elementary and the next day I asked what happened and was told they learned what happened when you put a bowl on sugar in the microwave. So when I got home I promptly put a huge bowl of sugar on high for 5 minutes and then watched it get hard... 11/22/2013 12:57:45 PM |

Aha...Google tells me it was a scene in the book omitted from the movie.

I had to split it up into two batches because there was too much for the size bowl I had. I burnt the second one 11/22/2013 1:24:10 PM |
