The ability to relax. I have a special needs child who constantly screams at us. We have no respite because none of our relatives are willing to deal with him anymore. All of his therapies and medical bills have nearly bankrupt me. My wife is suffering from PTSD because of it. We are on every waiting list for state resources but so far nothing.
Even as I tried to write this comment, I had to stop what I was doing because my wife went to the bathroom, and my son decided to yell at her because she left a pot on the stove.
I am completely incapable of relaxing anymore. If I do get a chance I'll just be racked with intrusive thoughts. Like last night I was watching Stranger Things and when I saw a kid on there with braces, all I could think was, "I need to get my son braces. But since he can't handle someone touching his face, it is going to be a nightmare. He's 13 and I still have to monitor his teethbrushing, who knows how much it will suck with braces. It will also be way more expensive because we'll have to sedate him, for every appointment" Then I spiral down from there. This is just one small example.
I'm in therapy and on meds for it. And so is my wife. I wish I lived in a state with legal marijuana because it's the only thing I've found that will actually help me relax. At this point we are actually considering selling our house, so we can afford to send him to a boarding school that is designed for kids like him. And maybe then we can get some respite.
Same. I had the Hercules Gamesurround Muse sound card to go with it too.
Wait, so that means they stayed and watched it?
It sucked the first time music from my teen years made it on to the classic rock station. But it hurt hearing stuff from my 20s on there now.
Please come to Denton.
The first time these two specific identical twins will face each other in the NFL. Not the first time any identical twins will face each other.
I'm so glad I got to see them when they came through Fort Worth on this final tour. It was a great show, but leaving felt surreal. Almost like a chapter of my life was coming to a close. My buddies and I would blast Punk in Drublic while cruising around in highschool. I'd seen them play at least a half dozen times. And always looked forward to their new albums.
Although I am looking forward to seeing what the members will do next. Codefendants and Melvinator have both been good projects so far.
The 90s. Cross your legs, gay! Wear a shirt with a loop on the back, gay! Express any emotions, gay!
I'm not the type that can watch the same movie or show over and over. This movie is one of the rare exceptions. I watch it at least 2-3 times a year.
It masterfully blends music, jokes, and action without a dull moment. It's amazing how they can make you laugh your ass off with dry humor while Aretha Franklin is belting out a Respect. Not to mention having Ray Charles, John Lee Hooker, James Brown, and Cab Callaway all perform. And of course the car chases. Oh man, nothing can top those car chases.
I told my grandmother I wanted to be Spider-Man one year and she went and hand sowed a custom for me with 6 extra legs off the sides and crocheted a spiderweb cape for it. Of course being a child I was upset when my mom told me I was wearing it no matter what. But looking back now, it was pretty funny and really sweet.
I went on the first date with a girl and we got on the topic of the day's news. I mentioned that I read a story about a guy attacking someone with a "Klingon sword." She stopped me and said, "You mean a bat'leth?" We've been married for 16 years now.
