Nov. 22nd, 2007 07:52 amI had been depressed for a bit, but now the sun is out and I've been reading "I Like You" by Amy Sedaris. It's a book mainly about hosting parties, including recipes and entertainment ideas, but it's also very funny. One idea in the "Children's Games" section is titled "Play Grown-Up":
Have a cocktail party. Make fake liquor using food coloring. ... Have children simulate spousal abuse by arguing and, as this escalates, slapping each other. Use Tic Tacs to spit out of the mouth as if they were teeth. ... Have a child pretend he is walking in on his wife and catching her having an affair with another person."
I hope I'm able to (if I decide to go) make it through dinner tonight. I don't have any Xanax left, and I don't know how soon I can make an appointment with my psychiatrist.
