********* **********

[sabrinamari]

I am really annoyed at the myriad of additional problems that have emerged/are emerging around each original problem that I need to resolve this week. It is very, very ******* annoying! The UTI is a bit better but persists, the document I need to email out cannot go out from my home computer because I cannot get my work PC online with encrypted wireless. I have to drive my car out to to the Princeton dealership where my parents are buying a new vehicle now so that they can get some $ off---BUT I am waiting for a nurse to call me back---and hopefully, with a new prescription.

Everyone is being great and trying to help me. But each momnet seems to bring a new ******** complication.

I hate this!

I called the nurse triage line and left my new cell phone #, but I am really really ********* ********* annoyed that every ******** problem I have to resolve is complicated some stupid ******* additional problem that is time consuming and challenging to make right.

I just want to beat and scream and kick and destroy something.

You know you're allowed to curse in your journal if you want, right?

No doubt, express yourself and let the explatives fly.

It will help you vent some of the frustration plus....some of us find it a turn-on.

Sometimes the crap really seems to pile up, this too will pass My Sweet.

Damn. All that lovely energy just waiting for a kiss. Your entire viewpoint could be shifted in a moment. Love you lady. Thankfully that crap won't last forever. I'd send you good healing vibes but I'm horribly sick at the moment. :) Get better soon.

I'll send good healing vibes to both of you!!!!

Take a breath and let it go. It will all work out, just maybe not in the timeframe *we* want...

I know....so not helping!

{hugs}

And, you know, beating and screaming and kicking and destroying something might actually help. It will help you feel better, and if you approach it with a magical mindset it could actually help with getting rid of the obstacles. Think in terms of a voudou-style uncrossing, or breaking through a curse. Yes, I'm sure there isn't really a curse, per se, I mean breaking through stuck energy so things will start flowing smoothly again.

I once taught a good friend to break plates. It was hard for her; she had to be walked through it, and I had to keep telling her nothing bad was going to happen, other than the plates would be broken. (They were shitty plates anyway. I'm a fan of buying shitty plates at garage sales or wherever and keeping a few in a box somewhere for moments when you need to break something. >:-)

It's amazingly therapeutic. I used to do something similar when I took glass to the recycling center, back when you took it yourself and threw it in the big bins -- you could throw the glass as hard as you want, and break as much of it as you liked. I kinda miss that. :-)

You know what I really want? I want an anvil. Not a huge anvil, but a REAL anvil, big enough that I can pound on it with a hammer. I want to learn to forge my anger into something useful. (When I was little, I used to beat on trees with a wooden practice katana, but I figured out pretty quickly that was bad for the trees. :-/ I think an anvil will work a lot better.)

I used to work in a gift shop many years ago, and would bring home the broken collectibles that we had to throw away. My favorite to smash when I was frustrated were those little Precious Moments monsterbabies. Their heads tended to fly well down a flight of stairs and smash into a zillion bits and pieces LOL

Very sorry

[davidt4e.livejournal.com]

Sometimes it seems as though there isn't enough comfort in the world for what is going on with us. Platitudes such as "This, too, shall pass" are often worthless at a moment like this.

I once bought a stack of plates at a thrift store and smashed them one by one, just to have the experience of doing it. It shook up the neighbors a bit, but they got over it, and as long as you don't hurt yourself (see "Mariah Carey") then you'll be fine.

Free advice being worth the price you pay for it, of course... :)

Re: Very sorry

[onyxtwilight.livejournal.com]

Precisely. And the choice of smashing material is very important -- you don't want glass, the cleanup is a stone bitch. Therefore, you don't want Corel dishes, which shatter like glass once you actually apply enough force to break one. You want cheap crockery/stoneware/ceramic sort of stuff, that will create pieces and shards and a bit of dust, but not a bajillion tiny sharp razors waiting to cut your foot if you miss one.

Breaking things in the garage is sometimes wise. :-)

Honey, call M, tell him you need a good throw down. Grapple, bite one another, be really rough and enjoy the aftermath. Trust me.....that sort of intensity will do you wonders.

[onyxtwilight.livejournal.com]

Well, yes... but perhaps after the UTI is gone?

[diekonigin.livejournal.com]

Please note that I never said anything about copulation! Where are your filthy minds. However, that's good therapy too. I would say don't wait, unless the pain is unbearable. Mental focus like that on that area might actually relieve some of the pain and pressure that's building.

[onyxtwilight.livejournal.com]

Sorry, I suppose my interpretation of "a good throw down" is undeniably sexual. >:-)

After your better I will take you to the range. Blowing away a box of ammo works great as a stress relief.

[frodo-jim.livejournal.com]

Personally, I like bread baking for stress relief. In particular, Italian bread, because as you're kneading the dough, you get to periodically pick it up and slam it down on the board as hard as you can...

Hey sweetie, USPS website shows that the package was delivered @ 2:41pm. If you weren't home, it might be at the apartment center office.

breaking plates...

[bethan7827.livejournal.com]

A GREAT idea. If you don't want to clean up after though, I find beating the crap out of my sofa pillows with a baseball bat helps.

Primal Rage, Inc.

[methastra.livejournal.com]

One of my pet ideas for when I'm rich and eccentric and have time to do it is to open a store called "Primal Rage" where you can do precisely the things people have been discussing here. It would include separate areas for:

1) Breaking Stuff: plates, faux glass (like that stuff in the movies), vases, etc.

2) Hitting Stuff: baseball bats and manaquins (bring your own photo to have put on the manquin's face), cheap golf clubs you can bend and break and hit things with, swords and maces and morning stars.

3) Screaming Room: A soundproofed room where you can rant and rave and rage and let it all out.

4) Blasting Stuff: more maniquins and stuffed toys (ie: Barney) with a fun assortment of pistols, shotguns and semi and full-auto weaponry, archery, crossbows and more

5) The Plush Avenger: a room full of cheap stuffed animals, cartoon characters, voodoo dolls, and assorted other things for you to rip the heads, arms and legs off of

6) Flaming Death: A safe fireproof room where you could burn stuff (such as avenged plush) in nice ceremonial ways. Crap from the office, old boyfriend photos, etc. Dump it in, pour on some lighter fluid, step back and push the Ignite button and enjoy lots of firey goodness.

7) Blowing Stuff Up: Some small relatively safe explosives (firecrackers, Cherry bombs, etc) that can be used in conjunction with any of the previously mentioned tools.

All services could be optionally videotaped for posterity for a small additional fee.

The final room would be a calming place where you could let the last of your tensions flow out of you. Big sofas, bean bag chairs, maybe some latte and juices, variety of munchies and some tv or movies to watch afterwards. And of course, free wireless internet.

So, who wants to invest?
