look on the bright side: you're not me ...

thelma: you there ...?
selma: yes
selma: you ok?
thelma: not my best
selma: so I heard from your message
thelma: oh yeah
thelma: I'm pretty transparent
thelma: the whole day has not been shit
thelma: just parts of it
selma: so what were the shit parts?
thelma: huh?
thelma: oh me
thelma: I thought you were talking about your blog
selma: ha
thelma: a horrific fight
selma: like I'd ask
thelma: about ADD stuff
selma: oh boy
thelma: I was more angry I'd been in a long time
selma: wow
thelma: which is a sign that I've been pushed a little too far in the 'hurt' category
thelma: and it wasn't the screaming or throwing things kind of angry
thelma: it was the quiet, venom-eyed, steely-voiced kind
selma: hmmm
thelma: but I have to reconstruct myself from the ground up
thelma: and it goes in fits and starts ...
selma: that is rough
thelma: when someone lays something on me about how I 'don't care' about doing these things—responsibilities—and I've put up with that kind of garbage my whole life—so I react bigtime
thelma: it's sort of insult to injury, y'know
selma: yes
thelma: when something is so difficult and you've struggled a lifetime with it and seen all kinds of opportunities pass by
thelma: and then there's a big judgment about my 'character failing' laid on top of it
thelma: nice.
selma: did you get that across?
thelma: so, well, to be fair, other people have to cope with my stuff
thelma: but to be fair to me: I've lived with me for forty years
thelma: rant over
selma: an interesting viewpoint:
selma: you think YOU have it bad—I've lived with me my whole life!
