Jul. 7th, 2008 08:32 amI'm still sick of being a grown-up. I still want to color instead of doing grown-up things.
But in an odd way, being childish feels unsafe, I guess because I was abused as a child. I was always the good child, super-responsible for my age and stuff, and I don't really know how to be a child safely. My inner child doesn't know what to do, and I don't know what she wants except to not have to do adult things any more.
I want my teddy bear, so I snuggled it last night, but I woke up at 4:30am with a horrible charley horse in my right calf and couldn't get back to sleep after the damn muscle stopped cramping.
I'm sort of tired again, so I might go back to bed and try to sleep some more with my teddy bear and see if that's what she wants.
