So I got some adulting done. Did a bottle run, vacuumed out the inside of my car, filled up on gas, got my rent out of the bank, and bought my mom a small container of ice cream.

All while feeling like "meh" and fighting PTSD

so yay me, I guess.

Sometimes, we simply have to

Sometimes, we simply have to fight through the feelings of "meh" to get to the other side.

So, yes. Yay!

I've got an endless supply of prayers and huggles for you!

What is a bottle run?

Back in my grandpa's day a "bottle run" was when they went to Canada and got a few cases of whiskey to sell out of the back of the Buick.
Back n my day it was a trip to the liquor store to stock up for the weekend.

Bottle run

laika's picture

According to Urban Dictionary, a bottle run means:

To walk casually into the alcohol aisle of any grocery store and proceed to take a bottle, usually Jack Daniels, and walk out of the store like nothing happened. A variation can be done with a hand basket and several bottles. If one can handle the sketchiness of the act, a shopping cart and the fire exit can also be used. A bottle run will get you a good year on probation, so if someone behind your back tells you to stop- Run Forrest run!

But in Dotty's case it seems more likely that the term means taking empty bottles
back to the store for a small refund on each (usually after you've accumulated
enough of them to make it worth the trip), like they do in some states
in the U.S. as a means of encouraging recycling.

Distraction

Did your work distract you from PTSD and MEHness?

I've heard that action can distract one from worry, grief, and anxiety. The best type, of course, is action against the apparent source of the anxiety.
