I'm still shrinking!

allyoftherain @allyoftherain (7208) • United States 9 Jan 13

I've been skinny my whole life, but lately I've been getting even thinner. Last year, during the worst part of my depression, I had next to no appetite. I lost maybe 10-15 pounds, and when I was admitted into the hospital I...

She's sleeping on my bed again...

allyoftherain @allyoftherain (7208) • United States 7 Jan 13

Nenya never used to display any interest in sleeping on my bed, but since I put my old multi-colored afghan on it for the winter, she seems to find it very comfortable. Usually when I'm in my room working on the computer, she'll...

allyoftherain @allyoftherain (7208) • United States 31 Dec 12

I got three $25 Barns and Noble gift cards this Christmas. Which is super exciting all by itself, but I also got 9 books which brings the total on my to-read shelf to 21 books. That shelf hasn't been clear since I created...

I'm a 21 year old woman, but gosh darn it, I love the Disney Fairies franchise. I love the Tinkerbell movies, and I adore the little fairy characters they've created in Pixie Hollow and now I'm reading the itty-bitty Disney Fairy...

It happened again! Anxiety Attack Dream.

allyoftherain @allyoftherain (7208) • United States 27 Jul 12

A few weeks ago I made a discussion about having a dream where my social anxiety took over and I had a panic attack in my dream. It sort of confused me because I couldn't recall any dreams in the past where I had a dream where I...

Would you please put that down?

allyoftherain @allyoftherain (7208) • United States 24 Jul 12

It seems to me that people want to pay more attention to their phones than to the people with them. I was visiting with a friend just the other day and she kept picking up her phone to check her text messages. I waited patiently...

Lack of knowledge about nutrition!

allyoftherain @allyoftherain (7208) • United States 14 Jul 12

While I was in school, one of my professors shocked me by repeatedly calling a McDonald's hamburger a balanced, nutritionally adequate meal. His reasoning? You had your bread, your protein, your dairy, and your fruits and...

I've had my kitty for about a year now, and ever since she was a kitten she's done this strange thing where she'll burrow herself under the welcome mat next to the back door. Today I was finishing lunch and I looked over and saw...

Had a dream I met my hero!

allyoftherain @allyoftherain (7208) • United States 3 Jul 12

Last night I dreamed that I was going to a conference on C.S. Lewis, a beloved writer of many classics and one of my personal literary heros. He's been gone for forty years or so, so in reality I would never get to meet him. In my...

I've been seeing people talking about downloading movies a lot on mylot. Personally, I'm very anti-piracy and seeing this happen makes me want to speak out. It just shocks me how callous people are about it. They're convinced...

Last night I dreamed I was at one of my old schools just kind of hanging out in the parking lot. I start singing, randomly. I don't even remember what I was singing, but soon enough a crowd gathers around me to listen. The...

You never forget how to FALL OFF a bike.

allyoftherain @allyoftherain (7208) • United States 8 Jun 12

It's been said that you never forget how to ride a bicycle. I soundly disagree. I rode a bike as a kid, up and down the neighborhood all the time. I recently got a new bike as an adult and have been attempting to ride it up and...
