first day as a second century warlord i have my men tie branches to their horses’ tails to stir up dust and make it look like there’s a lot of us but i forget it just rained so there isn’t any dust and the enemy can clearly see there’s like twenty of us all spread out in a line
Hey guys! Those of you who’ve followed me for a while already know I get anxiety, caused by anything from too much sugar, any amount of caffeine, or having to talk to someone in the grocery store. So I wanted to share this lovely thing I’ve found to help deal with it!
This is Morpheus, my sleepy time anxiety companion. (Isn’t he cute?) I found a mention online and these guys are meant to help address anxiety and sleep issues! Here’s how it works.
There’s a little egg in his tummy, when I hit the button Morpheus starts to pulse out a heartbeat rhythm. What’s really cool about this is lots of studies show that our heartbeats will slow down and match another heartbeat. So the beat will start measured and a bit loud (this is relative, you can’t hear or feel the pulse without touching the plush friend directly). Slowly it gets softer and further apart. When the button is pressed it goes through a 20 minute cycle. Generally I take about 45+ minutes to fall asleep as my mind decides that sleepy time is the best time to worry and fret over problems, but now I often fall asleep before the cycle completes.
Morpheus has also been a help during full blown panic attacks, my breathing and heartbeat will start to match his almost immediately, which is more than I could’ve hoped for. I’m sure that results may vary, but if you have anxiety, panic attacks, or trouble sleeping, you can find them here. (They also come in puppy friends!) They ship from Japan, and all instructions are in Japanese, but he was so simple to use, it hasn’t been a problem, but you might have to wait a bit for your own sleep time friend.
I too, carry sarcasm like house keys.
Which is to say I left it at home.
I accidentally locked myself out of sarcasm.
"Do you ever dream of land?" The whale asks the tuna.
"No." Says the tuna, "Do you?"
"I have never seen it." Says the whale, "but deep in my body, I remember it."
"Why do you care," says the tuna, "if you will never see it."
"There are bones in my body built to walk through the forests and the mountains." Says the whale.
"They will disappear." Says the tuna, "one day, your body will forget the forests and the mountains."
"Maybe I don't want to forget," Says the whale, "The forests were once my home."
"I have seen the forests." Whispers the salmon, almost to itself.
"Tell me what you have seen," says the whale.
"The forests spawned me." Says the salmon. "They sent me to the ocean to grow. When I am fat with the bounty of the ocean, I will bring it home."
"Why would the forests seek the bounty of the oceans?" Asks the whale. "They have bounty of their own."
"You forget," says the salmon, "That the oceans were once their home."
