panic, loving the random Terminal 46 thrown in there! Really hope you're feelin' alright today!
Asclepius, Okay, so I was going to make a joke in an attempt to improve your mood by saying "Well at least you're GRUNTLED enough to know it!" (don't worry, I didn't get it either! Haha). Then I thought for a second, "man, if only gruntled was a word that meant delighted, or something of the opposing nature..." So, of course, I dictionary.com it to make sure my 'glory' hasn't already been taken from me. Lo and behold,
GRUNTLED— adj
informal happy or contented; satisfied. How have I missed that one?

Mood of the moment:
Influenced . Watched some YouTube videos of a woman who shall remain nameless whose life stories and feelings paralleled mine. She made a reference to being similar to a vietnam vet—something my mom and therapist have told me I have had the similar mindset of due to having to
really 'toughen up' in many situations. I don't cry much, but this woman's story made me bawl. We had many of the same very bizarre experiences. In the end, within time, she beat her addictions, gave up the unsavoury men, tackled the mental health aspect, and now does some of the things I would love to do one day. She speaks publicly about her 'story'—in hopes of helping others, she also wrote a book, picked up a musical talent she gave up long ago, and is very successful. This woman really, really gave me a bit of 'hope' back.
