Let’s play, February!
Lately, when I get cravings for jalapeno & cheese pretzels, it means that I’m feeling a Negative Feeling. That feeling could be physical, like hunger, but it more than probably means I’m anxious, terrified, or horribly sad. Here’s how I know.
I’ve been getting incredibly random cravings for jalapeno & cheese pretzels, but even more interesting is that when I get a craving for pretzels and I actually think about putting a pretzel in my mouth, my stomach disagrees with the maneuver. It does not like the food. Sometimes I’ll go as far as buying the pretzel, but when I get it in my hands, I’ll share, and generously. That’s the main reason I know my desire is an illusion.
I definitely have been known to lead an interesting emotional life. I acutely know the downside of having powerful emotions, one of which is not knowing what to do with them half of the time. Or, embarrassingly, they slip out long after I thought I had dealt with them. It’s like trying to sit on a bathtub to keep the water from overflowing.
You can only imagine what it’s like for someone like me to fall in love, be in love, or try to fall out of it.
Luckily, I have some great friends to help me through this time of deceptive pretzel-buying. I think I’ll employ my tumblr on a regular basis as well. Here are some things I’ve been meaning to write about: working retail, running shoes, making vegan sushi, hair conditioner, The Office, and road-tripping. You see, my life is as cute as a button. My emotions need to understand this.
As God as my witness, I’ll never not eat pretzels again!
