Sooooo… just wondering if it’s normal to pass large amounts of retained menses (old, coagulated, brown, chunky blood and mucosal tissue) for two or three days prior to getting your period?
I have a soft spot in my heart for Nostalgia Critic, damselindistech. During the Homeless Year, he was one of the few things that could make me smile, so I’ll always be grateful to him for that.

Happens with me all the time. Far as I know, nothing’s the matter with me. *shrug*

Also, does anyone else love long cats, cats with really long bodies that look like freaking weasels? It’s amazing if a long cat is lounging in your arms and lets you stretch it out like an accordion and you see exactly how long it’s spine actually is. Long cats are LONG! I think the suspended cat is duping me with it’s hind legs making it’s back look longer than it is in actuality. Wicked cute though!

I’ve always thought nostalgia critic was a fundamentally very decent dude too. Not the least bit pretentious in his delivery either. I like that.
Re: retained menses, I know they’re just leftovers from the previous cycle and all they indicate is my uterus not contracting to an extent sufficient to empty my uterus of menstrual material which is no big deal. It’s not unsafe. My body just rids it’s self of them at the end of the next cycle. Going to ask a GP just in case it’s an indicator of anything else though.

I love* the NC. He definitely has his problematic points, but I’ve definitely seen him improve on those points over time rather than get worse.
*And by love, I mean obsessively watch practically every episode in existence. Thrice.

My issue is a definite first world problem. I have finished all my classes and graduate on Aug 30th. I worked full-time at a job at least tangentially related to what I studied, but I need to find a new one to keep going.
So I am looking for work and absolutely hate it with a passion. had one interview so far and I think I botched it. Ahh well. I will keep casting the net and find a good match.
This is odd: doing a Google search of this site for “Lolita” turns up no results, but searching for “Humbert Humbert” does get some hits, with many of the pages actually having the word “Lolita” in them.
I feel completely emotionally drained today. Last night I was not only triggered by memories of sexual and physical abuse, but I was also staying over at my dad’s place for the night. This morning, when I tried to leave the house, my dad was manipulating me constantly and berating me for wanting to leave “so soon”.
I’m finding it hard to concentrate on just about everything. All I want to do is sleep.
As pre-emptive brain bleach, especially for my Feminist Borg folks, I posted an old story of katz’s for writeathon; it won the bonus poll! You can read about the adventures of adorable cyborg animals here.
I’m so jealous of USians who are able to go to live Cinematic Titanics, or Rifftrax, or whatever else the live shows are called.

Speaking of a live show…..I was at one a few years ago with my die-hard MST3K friend and we saw Plan 9 From Outer Space. It was awesome. I wish I could impart that experience on to you!

Just had a word with our vet. Fribs has been losing weight again since she went on the kidney diet (which, surprisingly, she likes). We’re going to try her on a mix of kitten food and kidney food. It’s tricky to keep the phosphorous levels down and get her enough protein to build her weight again.
@damselindetech: Honestly, I think MST3K is awesome. TBH, I do kinda prefer the earlier episodes with Joel but Mike hosted some good episodes as well. And I liked ALL the bots, btw. =)

That poor cat is so obviously starving that it decided to hang itself in protest. Being a cat, it didn’t quite get the nuances right.
My wife gets annoyed with me because of my snoring in the morning. She doesn’t mind it herself, but it convinces the cat that we’re awake and that if it raises a racket outside the window long enough, we’ll let it in so it can eat.
I can’t even bring myself to speak out loud. I’m stuttering and saying everything too fast for anyone to understand. I tried going on a walk outside (because sleep didn’t do shit for me) and though I didn’t trip or fall down I think I easily could have done so since my gait was so unstable.
Hugs, nice thoughts, etc. are appreciated. I know trauma is behind all of this but I wish it would stop. I don’t feel like myself at all and I feel really unsafe and anxious for no reason.

Turns out The Nostalgia Critic is my emotional and intellectual doppleganger.

Yeah, I’m going to the doctor. Harrumph.

Here’s a picture of a very cat like weasel

That’s poop to hear, Ally. I hope you get an opportunity to rest up and regain your strength.
LBT – I have similar feelings of “You were there for me” with MST3K. The hardest of times, I had that show to make me smile and keep me going.
@Ally– I’m sorry you’re dealing with so much. Hopefully some rest will recharge you.
@damselindetech– MST3k Is my absolute FAVORITE

We watched the Twilight Rifftraxx at me and hubby’s bachelor party with Smirnoff Ice.
Best. Bachelor party. EVER.

@Ally, All the hugs!
@kittehs, Many pats for Fribs. Hope you get the diet tweaked just right!
At least cookies and milk seem to be helping. Surely no one can go wrong with cookies and milk unless they’re allergic to that stuff.
Thanks, cloudiah, let’s hope so!
