RE: Sometimes there's milk and cookies

in LEGO3 years ago (edited)

Some adults are pretty childish so I'm sure it isn't rocket science to mentor a kid instead. Probably easier.

It wasn't a fun experience that's for sure but I was also in a really bad and toxic relationship that ended soon after , I probably would have stayed in it if that child was born. Somethings are almost blessings in disguise even when they are painful. On the days where it bothers me a bit, I get this weird dream of a little boy that visits me and rubs my hair, makes it all ok...we just have to wait a little while to meet on the other side. Maybe my subconscious interpreting my emotions or some godly afterlife voo-doo shit...either way it's pleasant and comforting when I wake up. I always wake up right after too and still feel the tiny hand clumsily brushing my hair back.

Oh wow, that sounds like a rough couple of weeks for you too. Well wishes and a speedy recovery, I hope it wasn't anything too serious. Seems like everyone I know is getting sick lately. Maybe I need some getting used to this getting old shit...I don't like it that much to be honest :D

Being sick sucks but what can you do, like you said, whine about it a bit and move on.

Sort:  

Hmm, that dream thing...They say a lot of great import happens in our dreams although I'm not so savvy in interpreting them I guess. I'd say it's your subconscious saying that it's all ok I suppose but someone with some skill in this area would be able to make better sense of it. The good thing is that you wake up feeling better. I can imagine that episode stays with you but as you say it was maybe something that needed to happen to inspire some change? I'd a guy so have no fucking clue what I'm saying here though. I'll shut up now.

I'm ok, just some pain really...The healing thing will take some months. It's not necessarily an old person thing but for sure I'm with you on that aspect...It sucks. Still, it's going to happen I guess.

I do have sensitivities to paranormal things but I also have a bias to the situation so judgement can be clouded in that regards. I don't question the what, just then end results matter. No worries, always feel free to speak even if I might not agree with it, it's good to have male perspective on things too. Doesn't mean I'll take it seriously tho ;)

I can't imagine the pain of surgery and the recovery. Sucks that will take you ot for a few months, that's a kick in the pants for sure. It's gonna happen like it or not, we are not invincible even if we think we can EMA our way around forever uninterrupted. Being awesome is hard work, beast machines need time for maintenance too. hehe

good to have male perspective on things too. Doesn't mean I'll take it seriously though

As a man I'm used to women not taking me seriously.

I almost EMA'd the surgeon because there was some infection but she's a she and I'd never EMA a woman. I EMA'd a few random fellows instead, poor bastards; One might not pull through.

Us beastly machines certainly need our maintenance at times; Some relaxation, a slow down...Milk and cookies.

MMM Milk and cookies...half baked soft cookies...Dunked in delicious COOOOLD milk.

Well take comfort that you did the ethical thing, sometimes there is collateral damage, wrong place at the wrong time. :D He shouldn't have been there.

collateral damage, wrong place at the wrong time. :D He shouldn't have been there

I blame him. The fact I had to run after and catch him to administer the EMA beating is beside the point.

Stop teasing me with talk of cold milk and cookies...I'll end up ruining my dinner appetite...Actually no I won't, pizza tonight. Home made. :)

Details aren't important, he can't prove it. I hope you EMA'd potential witnesses too...loose lips sink the ship.
I mean at least he was at the right place to get patched afterwards, I think that is considerate and a gentleman thing to do.

MMMM...Home made pizza!! Always the best kind. I made some of that a couple days ago with a big fat Caesar salad (or maybe it was a bacon and cheese salad with romaine lettuce bits, my memory can be fuzzy :p)

It always pays to take out a few potential witnesses, even just to dissipate some of the residual EMAness.

Yeah, pizza! I'm doing a tomato salad with it...Cherry tomatoes, red onion, basil, olive oil, dijon mustard, salt, cider vinegar. Just basic. Should be good. I could go a Caesar salad though. No stuff to make it though. My tomato salad will work though I guess.
