@surreality Awwww! I admit to being a dog person these days - I gave up on cats after one that left me for a parrot and an alcoholic...

RE: Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.
@surreality My cat back then was half local tom, half purebred Persian. He hated men for no reason at all. He hunted my male friends, to the point of hiding and attacking (bottom of sleeping bags, off high surfaces onto backs), but once pounced into the middle of my friend's viennetta, before scoot to where he could not be reached to lick his paws.

@surreality My sister's cat used to do this trick with mice. She was bright as all hell, and she used to drop them into the toaster. When you put in your bread, it would pop up with the toast, and she would take it away to eat as you all were freaking about cooked mice...

@JinShei I find myself weirdly grateful for the new flouf, 'cause I swear she is the only cat on earth that never sleeps. I wake up like somebody dropped a bucket of water on my head, and I get a flouf immediately jumping up onto the bed for all the petting forever. It helps. It really, really helps. I'm still awake, and there's no getting back to sleep, but there is cuteness and d'aww that at least helps bring on the 'slightly less panicky' faster than usual.
My dog is more like ..."Why did you wake me, human? would a ball help? here, let me get one and drop it on your face."

@surreality Yeah, mine can wake up, and then boom, be back to sleep in five seconds. Me, heart pounding like someone set off our house alarm..

RE: Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.
@surreality YES! That! I feel like it is like the janitor at work just testing a fire alarm. Just checking all of these things work, oh sooooo sorry, were you trying to sleep?

RE: Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.
@surreality That sucks. I get it around once a fortnight, and there is no going back to sleep, is there? I got up at 4am and bitched about it to the other players.

Brains that wake abruptly with waves of anxiety. Boom, you are awake now, adrenalin rush, heart pounding...

I'm not sure this counts as Health & Wealth & GrownUp Stuff but in other news the upcoming election is seriously affecting my mental health. I'm looking forward to it all being over, one way or another.Seconded. Between this and Brexit, I can't open my twitter feed without an anxiety burst.
I think it would be easier if I could just resign myself to worst case scenario, but that flicker of hope/uncertainty keeps me glued to the news. It's like being strung along by a bad relationship.
Otherwise to be honest at this point I would just rather not read it.
It is hope that kills you. I just am too damn tired of the lot of them.
My friend suggests that, instead of elections, we just have jury service MPs... every 4 years a new bunch of randoms. Can't be worse.

Also, remember, once she is inside your house you can shoot her dead. Just make sure she is fully inside the residence. If you have a restraining order out on her and she breaks into your home, you have a license to kill.Just finish the job. Shoot her at least three times at range, wait about a minute, call 911 while she bleeds out, try to sound like you're confused and in shock.
You scare me
That is not true in every state or every situation.
Best not.
I'll be over here, in the UK.. Being scared of different things.
