		<description>elation is such a great word, and such a great description: simply joyful to be alive, to be exactly where you are in that moment, to be exactly who you are. it feels, for me, like my boundaries are gleefully melting out into the universe, and i am enlarged. 

elation is kind of like running a marathon: once I experienced it, I can&#039;t tell myself that I&#039;m incapable of experiencing it ever again. it changes me.</description>

		<description>Oh my god i love you even more! I thought i was the only wakopants nutjob to use text to taulk in such a manner! Last week the FMG (funny mustache guy) and i stood back and watched while our phones (blackberry and iPhone) got into text slap fights like teenage girls from warring cliques, including &quot;STUPID HAIR&quot; and &quot;FAT ASS&quot; but eventually degenerated into binary code yelling (BITCH IISSON!!! 11100111000101011!!!!! 10001100011000!!!)
yeah. that.

		<description>Oh my god the aulk is the best game ever! :D 

Random; you reminded me of a Best Vacation Moment Ever. While visiting the Gili Islands with my then-boss and friend, we stayed in the cheapest, most run-downest guest house ever. (Seriously, we had ONE towel between the two of us... and we had to request that one!) But I digress. When we first checked into our bungalow, my friend was looking for the switch to turn the fan on, saw a button by one of the beds, and pushed it.

And was immediately shaulked! (zot! eep!)

Moments later, the check-in guy walked in and motioned to the button my friend has JUST pushed, and said something along the lines of &quot;don&#039;t push this button&quot; while taping it over.

So yeah. Don&#039;t push the button... (zot! eep!) ;)

		<description>Love this post and especially love the use of &quot;craulkodiletears&quot;. No idea why that one made me giggle, but nonetheless. :)

So glad to hear the processing helped you write.

		<description>Havi, I&#039;ve actually enjoyed your so-called &quot;abnormal&quot; posts a lot this week. Even when you&#039;re not writing directly about destuckifying and biggification, I benefit. It all relates, from the sublime to the ridiculous. Thank you, always.</description>

		<description>Wackopants!  Oh yes, that totally sounds like something that would come out of Christina&#039;s mouth!  Gosh, do I miss you all...

I&#039;m so glad you shared your smart, happy, and ridiculous things - they cheered me up a bit from that not-elated-at-all mood I&#039;ve been in for the past few days.  Really, I should have been in Taos: a serious dose of crazy Shiva Nata and a healthy helping of Old Turkish Lady yoga would have helped a lot with the hard.</description>

		<description>I know that feeling. I feel it here a lot, often at the coast, but also in odd random moments like driving on 26. I thought it was because I loved it here so very much, but in reading @Wormy&#039;s comment, I am wondering if I partly love it here (and feel it here) because this is where I am finally learning to be myself. Seems possible.

Still laughing at the Twitter exchange.
