Thumbs

Today I was talking with my therapist and I asked why after, all these hundreds of thousands of years of human evolution, nature couldn't have done me a solid and evolved out of emotions. I mean, if it can do opposable thumbs, it seems like this would've been a good use of its time, as well.

Hmmmmph.

Maybe we evolved INTO emotions...and now the good ones are really good and the crappy ones are crappy crap crap crap.

I like that you have a therapist. Micah is getting training in it and I think it's such a blessing.

My therapist will love that you said that we evolved INTO emotions.
Without my therapist I wouldn't have made it thru the last year. Maintaining a modicum of sanity is muy bueno.

Also, I agree with your sentiment about crappy crap crap crap.
Mariah said that I will eventually be really happy that I have emotions. we'll see.

Well technically, the only way you CAN be happy is if you have emotions. But I'd just as soon be done with about half of them. Usually the half that other people are aiming at me...

Oh, Jessica, you and your logic...
