So I finally made it out. The break was difficult, but if you time it just right (like when the guards ain’t lookin’), then it’s not too bad. Certainly isn’t like you’d think it would be in a place where they piece out your shampoo and take away your shoestrings. Thank Og that I had my Sooper Sekrit Speshul invisable cloak ™ that I’d borrowed from one of them there satanic novels. I used that for the getaway and I’ve got to thank Mr. Harry for the loan.
Anyway, joking aside, as the lovely Jaceson (who I simply call wonderfool – what?) explained, I had a bit of a rough beginning but things slowly did improve. Except on Christmas day, when I was pretty much the only one there. Apparently most of the other patients had been shunted out as quickly as possible, like thieves in the night, and all I can assume is a vast insurance conspiracy. :eek: I’ve had my medication jacked with and I’m eager to see if that helps. I’ll also shortly be seeing a New and Improved (now with more wit!) psychiatrist. They ( ::: cue ominous music ::: ) felt too that my current therapist might not be as helpful as I feel. However, I adore him and that’s been an unbelievable miracle in my long-ass trek to find anyone that was even remotely decent. So we’ll see.
Other than that, I did scarf down plenty of cheesecake (I’m sorry that there’s none left!) and fawn over my gift from the fellow mentioned above. He got me this terrific pendant/charm thingie that breaks in half. Quaint I know. 
Therefore, his says “best” (of course) and mine obviously says “friend.” I am truly a blessed girl.
Now on to the much heartfelt thanks (in order of threads that gasp!, he didn’t know what to call or how to do) …
NinetyWt – The card was beautiful. It was printed out and hung above my bed. For kicking this off too. It could’ve easily died in oblivion without your generosity.
Ferret Herder, Shirley Ujest, norinew, twickster, Kalhoun, Left Hand of Dorkness – Your sweet words help to make a tough situation bearable and to ease the lonliness late at night. To think that you established members even knew who I was absolutely made my day. I’m so very grateful.
SHAKES – Damn man, don’t you know that Mickey D’s sucks fetid toes? And the only thing okay there is their McNuggets. I never. But I am sorry that they took another opportunity to stick to us little people. Jerks. I’ll be fighting back on your behalf.
DfrntBreign – Archway cookies! You are a god and I’ll worship forevah. I really appreciate such a new poster stopping by to perk up my day.
Kythereia – I know you guys sometimes get teased about haning out here in MPSIMS, but let me just say that I’ve got tons of respect for those {{{hugs}}}. Many a time I’ve passed up adding my “me too” to something like this because there was already so much or I’m a nobody or whatever. After y’all’s example, which was balm for the soul, I won’t do that again in the future if I’m aware.
[And no, I’m not talking about those black holes. Silly rabbits!]
TubaDiva & SkipMagic – I apologize for all the hoopla. He really didn’t know and was just trying to help. I appreciate that it was straightened out for him and he’s now been duly chastised with wet noodles and Play-Dough.
Annie-Xmas – I loves me some of my very first Secret Santa recipient. You’re such a doll! ::: waves :::
Good grief that’s long. But I’m sure no one expected any less, huh? I’ll continue throwing accolades and confetti in the next post for those brave souls who contributed to the ominous Thread Two.
Which made all this the more cooler.
