Never mix Flash 8 with House and too much coffee and then try and sleep.
Imagine me, in a room with Dr House. Burns victim in front of us.
I turn to Dr House and say “he’s not tweening properly – the alpha won’t work!”.
Dr House turns around to me and says “Maybe you should go into the button and then group it as a graphic symbol. He’ll be out by Tuesday.”
Me: “Mina, you know what? I love you and your brother so much it hurts.”
Mina: “That’s good mum, we love you too.”
Pause a few seconds.
“Mum, is the reason you love us so much is because your mum doesn’t love you very much?”
I cried for a while after that. Half expected her to hand me a tissue box.
Watching Neighbours last week:
“Mum, what is that girl wearing?”
“She’s wearing a habit”
“Why?”
“She’s a nun”
“What’s a nun?”
“They’re married to God”
“Who is God”
oh shit
“um, some people think that God is a giant man in the sky that looks after us”
“OK. Can I have a drink?”
Just a quick note to all those friends, family etc who care that now that Jules is over 6 months and I have the all-clear from PND/PTSD that I have decided to stop taking Lexapro. Whilst anti depressants help with anxiety, they also contribute to me feeling uninspired, lose my frustrations and passions that fuel my creativity and motivation, and, well, basically, I don’t really need them.
Withdrawing from SSRI’s is nasty business and I can’t really guarantee that I won’t be writing strange blogs, emailing people with psycho rants, posting my debut on The Spin Starts Here, or other insane things. I may also disappear and not reply to emails because I want to stay in bed with my kids and watch TV all day. But don’t take it personally.
And if any Internet Mothers with nothing better to do feel the need to harass me, would be nice if you’d wait a couple of weeks. Then I’ll tell you all to fuck off and you’ll know I mean it.
Odds are I’ll be exactly the same as normal and do the above anyway, but hey, getting reprieve for being a bitch doesn’t happen often :D
