Didn't see the news of the parrot but I'll definitely pass it along to a friend of mine who has an African gray. Very funny stuff.

Thanks all. I know I shouldn't beat myself up and I know I'm not an idiot but I've always kind of felt inferior intellectually around my H and his friends. They all went to Oxford, graduated at the top of their class and most now have a PhD. It just pisses me off that they all know about my H's A.

Part of my stress recently is because I left our apartment in such a rush (so I would be gone when he came back from a trip to the UK) that I still have lots of files and other stuff I need there. Just being home now makes me depressed and really angry even though my H is not home when I go. So I'm trying to just get what I need done so I won't have to go there as much until things are a little cooler.

NYS--Not to worry. I'm not having these bursts of anger when anyone else is around. Often it happens while I'm stopping by my apt or driving in my car. Usually it only lasts at most a half hour. I just worry that one day my H will call while I'm SuperPissed .

I do yoga so if possible I sit down and take a few deep breaths. That usually does it for me.
