So I have discovered that dressing in the dark so as to not awake my husband tends to be what leads to that very special “bummed (inside) out” feeling.
So this morning I specifically looked for patterned underwear, which would only be patterned on the OUTSIDE.
Success.
Underwear, right side out.
It’s the small victories, really.
If By Yes 
Not that putting on your underwear the right side out necessarily prompted this, but…
Can I just say that you sound much happier lately? And much more able to cope with things? Six months ago the whole torch relay fuck-around would have sent you to the bathtub for days… but this time you were sad, but you also got angry and then did something about it (I saw your article in the paper, well done).
I don’t know if you have anyone telling you this IRL, so I’ll tell you now – you are doing great. Keep it up.
Thank you. I still feel down and sad a lot but… I do feel much… saner.
I’m glad the real Carol is starting to show through again.
HA – when it’s a quarter to six and I’m fumbling around trying to get dressed to walk my dog before the teeming masses wake up, I do the same thing. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve come home only to discover that my gitch are on inside out…and that my shirt is, too.
the small victories are the sweetest.
