Like One Of The Seven Dwarfs.
Everything has been making me grumpy all week. Mainly the problem is the heat - it's been in the low hundreds since Sunday. The air pressure keeps making me dizzy and my sister even had a little bout of heat-sickness while running errands. Also, I think in some part I am extra edgy because Cory Monteith's death really brought up a bunch of crap

Cory's death was upsetting, is upsetting and I can see wanting an escape. My tumblr is ljhamlin91 by theway. I don't reblog a lot but it's generally light hearted stuff.
I need to get my tumblr to work on my computer as well as phone so I can find you a link to the cutest thing ever. Some one has made a cartoon that includes dean, cas and sam done on the style of the powerpuff girls
I hope you feel better <3

I'll take hugs, thank you.
The heat isn't as bad here, but I don't deal with it well so I know how you feel, it is grumpy making.
Anybody with health issues, yeah, the heat is an extra pain in the ass to go along with everything else. It was in the 90s all week with an extra 10 degree bump of humidity for a whopping 105F on Thursday. But it rained on Friday night! So now we are just in the high 80s with little to no humidity. Yeah, it's reached the time of summer where I complain about the heat, but in five months, it'll be winter and I will be freezing my ass off with 20F chills outside.
Cory's death was upsetting, is upsetting and I can see wanting an escape.It just hit way too close to home. His story was always inspiring to me in my own struggle with drugs and even when he went back into rehab, I was uplifted like, "Look, yes, he relapsed, but he keeps trying to be better. So even if I relapse at some point, it doesn't have to be the end." But then, of course, for him it was the end - so that just stirred up a ( ... )

Cory's relapse ended in tragedy,but I think your right that he's an inspiration, because he kept fighting to get better, even though he was in a temptation filled world.
I found the link for you http://bellagattino.tumblr.com/
More hugs, anxiety is one of the worst things.
I'm not doing too bad

That's actually a good way to look at it! It's all just a big scary question mark in my life and I try to remember that a question mark means I have no way of knowing how it will end - just as easily positive as anything else.
That SPN Powerpuff art!!! ahahahahah That's AWESOME!!!

I hate when people are that stupid and don't think about what their words mean and how much they matter to younger kids. I was struck by that this past year that even people who work with kids all the time forget how much kids get. It made it so frustrating sometimes when I wanted to say in a meeting, look, the kids know you don't think they can handle this. That's why they're not giving as much, because if an adult doesn't think they can do it why should they? Sorry, its a pet peeve of mine. I was lucky enough to grow up around adults who mainly treated me as a full human being no matter how small I was and I think that's important. Basically, I completely get where you're coming from and all your annoyance.

Yeah, a good balance is key, I think. Yours has a nice balance to it. I think my main problem is I need to stop scrolling through tags - too much crazy in the tags. Also, have you seen Teen Wolf fandom on Tumblr? Wow, I forgot how wanky early-on fandoms can be.

Yeah, I hate when people talk about stuff in front of kids and think the kids won't pick up on it. "Oh, he's playing in the corner, he can't hear us." He's playing - not deaf! But in regards to my cousin's step-dad, I think this guy is actively teaching these view points to the kid. He also carries a concealed weapon around everywhere, even with his 3yr old with him, and has convinced my 13yr old cousin that guns are the coolest things ever. And we aren't talking about hunting rifles here! So I think he has no problem with the message he is sending to kids.

That step-dad sounds terrifying, I wouldn't feel comfortable in a house like that. I didn't grow up with guns but it seems like a big part of having guns is respecting what they can do.

I went to the Teen Wolf tag after the most recent episode because I was excited and wanted to see what everyone was saying - and while some of it was good - (and of course people had giffed all the scenes I wanted to see giffed!) - a lot of it was ship bashing and over the top emotional feels that had me like, "Okay, maybe I have gotten too old now to have such dramatic feelings about a TV show because these kids need to calm down!" I think I just need to find some Teen Wolf-ers out there who this isn't there first time around the block and follow those people. Tags are evil!

I am from a farming family, which means a hunting family, but if one of us kids expressed interest in hunting, gun safety was the first thing we learned! Hunting rifles are not a new thing for the kid, ( ... )

It was in the hundreds all week last week, the low to mid 90s with a 10 degree bump for humidity and then on Thursday it was 97+humidity to make it 105 degrees outside. I felt so unbelievably sick. I'll tell you though, Philly and places out on the east coast have been getting slammed - rain upon rain upon rain and then stifling scorching heat waves. It's no good for anyone!
Luckily it finally stormed on here - for two hours straight, kept everyone awake - but it's now in the high 80s and yeah, I'll take that over 105 anyday!

I am sure you can imagine why Cory's death - someone who was trying so hard to stay clean and do better - would knock me down like that. His story was inspiring to me and to have it end like that, has me rattled. Not to mention, god, he was so young and so many people are mourning this.
smack that nephew HARD
I want to smack his mother for marrying the asshat who is teaching him this shit! Sometimes I question my own sanity for having been best friends with her for so many years (back when) - I thought she was better than marrying a gun-toting misogynistic patriarchal idiot.
so sorry you are having a hard week, ILU!
ILU2!!! Thank you, babe. It is slowly getting better.

And I've been siting here for like, half an hour trying to come up with a graceful way to say this, and it's just not coming: don't go thinking that his end is anything like related to your life or destiny or whatever, because it's NOT. Okay, please?
Related but less intense: I hope the whole cast is all right, too. It has to have been just like losing a family member for all of them.
Hopefully the boy will meet girls of his own age who smack him around for being a proto-dickhead, and peer pressure will do something positive in making him a better human being. We can hope, right?

Just FYI, when I originally read this comment, I actually cried. Just because...that you sat there and took the time to think of words to try to help - you don't know how very little that happens when it comes to my drug use. Nobody ever knows what to say, but sometimes just someone trying is all I really need, not shying away from it. Shit, see, now I'm gonna cry again! And your right, I know your right, because here I am 3 1/2 years out and still standing - but it does just hit on a lot of my fears and I try to remember like 'the worst doesn't always happen' - because honestly when I was a kid, nobody thought I'd live to be 35 and here I am, so even if my stupid brain sometimes tells me I won't make it...well, it can go fuck itself, I'm in charge of my own life.
