There's a reason I leave this necklace on and nearly never take it off. I'm not saying that was the primary cause of this afternoon's unpleasantness, but I do think it was a contributing factor.

In any case, everything's been resolved right and tight, and I'm feeling much, much better.

Sometimes I lose sight of the reality of things, I'm so busy getting upset because I've trapped myself in my own idea of how the universe is working. I'm glad that I have such an excellent bondmate who can deal with me no matter how odd I get; I'm glad I have such excellent backup in iroshi and amberfox; I'm glad Sis is such an excellent roommate and understands about thse things, and gives me rides to the library when I'm still crying too hard to drive myself.
