Something’s not right

Riding a wave

Riding a wave

Hi all,

@CherryBomb, @Former-Member or any other @Former-Member floating around Forum Land, will you ride a wave with me? I thought I would be fine doing something...but it turns out that the something has made my big feelings BIG and now I'm in a pickle...and there's nothing worse than a pickled turtle! I'm going to go and snuggle in my bed so I probably won't actually respond to you, but it will still super help me to know that I am not utterly alone on the wave. I don't want to tag anyone else because I don't want anyone to feel they need to respond. Thank you in advance for riding with me.

Oh you are a funny little turtle @Phoenix_Rising haha - sleep - me - yep you are funny!!! Maybe it needs to be on repeat for me - or maybe I should try to count turtles (would probably have exactly the same effect - nothing)

Thank you, @Phoenix_Rising. That means more to me right now than I can possibly say.

I hope you sleep well. Good night.

Pssssst @Zoe7, I know (and super hope) you are probably sleeping right now, but I was wondering if I could ask a favour. You know how you made me some super cool yoga outfits? Do you reckon you could make me a CG outfit? I'm feeling a little shy about posting on the CG thread because everyone seems to have said very deep stuff and I'm feeling a little self-conscious about being...well...me. However, in my brain I keep hearing CherryBomb telling me to never stop being me so I'm just waiting for the self-conscious feeling to settle before I post. I think a new outfit would super help. But only if you are feeling up to it - if you aren't, that's a bazillion percent ok. We seriously need to schedule my how-to-make-pictures lesson!

I would love to do that for you little turtle. Just describe what you would like and I'll put it together for you @Phoenix_Rising (come close but don't touch I have to whisper - I was secretly really, really hoping you and CB would become CG's - now I can claim my 'odd one out' prize officially )

Re: Riding a wave

@Zoe7 Giggle, it sounds like you need to make yourself a giant trophy in recognition of being the odd one out.

I think I am envisaging the picture of me that you used when making my yoga outfits, but wearing this jacket and having CG written on the jacket. This is super cool having my own tailor here in Forum Land.

Re: Riding a wave

@Phoenix_Rising I have employed myself as your Manager/Promoter/Tailor lol

Before I 'make' your jacket for you I have written your 'profile' piece......

How about this little turtle:

I am a disrespectful and offensive sea turtle. I don’t love anyone nor am I friends with anyone. I do not like it when love hearts are thrown at my head (but one specific little flutterby ‘gets away with it’ ocassionally).

I see the world in black and white and take literally what is written or said.

This also means that I write exactly what I think and believe that there is truth in honesty. Not everyone ‘gets this’ but you will always know exactly where you stand with this little turtle.

I understand that not everyone is able to ‘speak turtle’ but having a few people around that can does help at times with my Big feelings.

I do have a unique sense of humour which often leaves ‘people’ ROFL.

If something isn’t covered in Nutella and/or chocolate then it is just not worth eating.

I spend most of my days riding waves or in my underwater cave.

When I have BIG feeling I can often be found in CB’s pocket or deep in the inner sanctum of the underwater cave.

I feel safest when I know that someone is watching over the cave at night.

I am super grateful for this forum as I do not feel quite as alone here as I do IRL.
