Today, I teetered on having a meltdown for reasons that aren't relevant here. Thankfully, I avoided it. I really wanted to say "THIS IS WHY CHAPTER 13 FUCKING SUCKS", but I pulled myself back from the cliff.
Anyway, sometimes people like me (see title of blog) need some techniques to get a grip. Or methods to keep me from saying "Fuck you very much, your honor".
What I try to do is think about things I enjoy and things I look forward to and wouldn't want to jeopardize with a trip to the US Marshal holding pen at the Ronald Reagan Building in Santa Ana.
So in general I try to think / do some of the following:
Listen to music I like specifically - Depeche Mode Some Great Reward through Violator with two songs from Playing the Angel.
Read certain magazines I like - Harpers, Discover, and Scientific America
Read About the 2013 Seahawks Seasons - this is very exciting and always makes me feel better!
Think back to when the Huskies won a national title, and the Mariners were relevant, usually with some help from youtube to remind me, it was actually real and not some random altered memory.
Surf Wikipedia Endlessly about random people and random stuff from history.
Anyway, those are my "simple pleasures" to the extent there is anything simple about it. And for what it is worth, I am listening to this and reading about this guy. And I feel much more relaxed...thankfully
