I know exactly what you mean. My dog passed away over the summer, and there are still nights that I can’t keep from crying. I, too, have always found that keeping busy helps me deal with (or avoid dealing with?) emotionally traumatic experiences.

hilarious writing, although sad subject… i get what you are saying though. y dog was hit by a car earlier this year, and for whatever reason, i absolutely cannot get over it, and god knows if i lose track of the thoughts i’ve got going on for even like, 45 seconds, i will undoubtably think about her dying, child abuse, puppies being euthanized and not being able to adopt each and every one, freak accidents, tragic acts of nature….. i swear to god it has to be a disease to intentionally think about things that i can’t help but sob uncontrollably about. i’ a freak!

and apparently the keyboard is having it’s own personal issues with certain letters. huh.

When my 6 year relationship ended, I needed the TV going at all times because I couldn’t shut my mind off. My sleep patterns got all screwed up and over a year later, I am still napping after work, staying up very late, and having the TV on all night long. If I wake up without the sound, I have a panic attack. Well, I am having them all the time now anyway because I am about to lose my job, but this behavior started growing roots a long time ago.

Let’s just hope that when addressing a naughty child you’d leave out the expletive.

I know what you mean, I have crazy ADD so if I don’t have some sort of project or like a lot to do at work my mind goes to weird stuff.

Usually weird shit that happened like years ago that I weirdly still feel guilty for. Like, “Mom really wanted me to wear that hideous dress to school in junior high, and I refused and told her it was ugly. Why couldn’t I just not be a little bitch and wear it? I should call her and apologize….”

Hehehe, yeah.

My mind is like a retarded kid at the Special Olympics…

You leave it alone for two freakin minutes and it runs off screaming, “Adhubaaaaadha” and then it crashes into a pile of garbage and cries.
