Maaaaaan, all of this. Anti-people-hating, boundaries, putting the boot down. Clearly you have done the good hard work. Lots of it. I think I hope I'm where you're at now but only time will tell. Kinda came close to a boot situation a couple days ago but the bootee went silent.
The title Snow Job and the name DOUBLE ICICLE SKY STAB are my two favorite word combinations of the day. I have said "double icicle sky stab" out loud way too many times now. The cat agrees.
And your photos are awesome. I love Misted Gateway II. And the Oogie Boogie Tim Burton burlap with the christmas bulbs.
Yeah, you don't want to know how many years, lol. I consider it ongoing work until I'm dust.
You know exactly where you are 😉, trust that.
Hahaha, yes, sometimes the bootee falls silent. Frankly, I dislike having to take a hardline approach with some people because I'm concerned that I may be too harsh, until I go over in my mind how much of the behaviour I've already given a pass to. I avoid being emotional in response, but then get called cold, when I'm exercising restraint and self-containment. There's no winning, someone is bound to be offended over whatever. It's best to focus on being one's authentic self while balancing that with consideration of others.
The title popped into my head out of the void. Later I remembered this was an expression I heard growing up. The same with "Double Icicle Sky Stab", out of the void. Later, I look at these things and where did that come from? 😂 Thanks for appreciating those combos and especially liking that your cat agrees.
Thank you @corvidae, the second one is also my favourite of the two. I seem to have a recent fixation with these bulbs and taking distorted macro photo reflections of myself in them.
Funny, I read your reply and said "double icicle sky stab" out loud again and the cat appeared. It must have come out of the feline void...
😂 I'm going to try that and see if a cap will appear here from the feline void.
Let me know if it works!
I most certainly will, lol!
