Withdrawal (206/365)

“We can often endure an extra pound of pain far more easily than we can suffer the withdrawal of an ounce of accustomed pleasure.”

Sydney J. Harris (American, journalist for the Chicago Daily News and later the Chicago Sun-Times. 1917–1986)

*Someone* had her cell phone, computer, Facebook, Xbox and Wii privileges taken away from Sunday afternoon until tomorrow morning because *Someone* wasn’t behaving like she should.  *Someone* is suffering social network and texting withdrawal (I swear she has the shakes).  *Someone* thinks we will break down and give the cell phone back to her sooner if she behaves.  Ha!  *Someone* will just have to suffer until tomorrow morning.
