I told him to break a leg at his preformance of Lysistrata. He didn't seem pleased.

break the seal

Certain species of Seal are naturally resistant to
training by humans. This is due to their wild, savage nature.
However, with some patience and a steady supply of fresh fish, most seals *can* be trained.

A human seal trainer is said to have "broken the seal" when the Seal correctly fetches a chilled beverage, such as a Moslon Golden or perhaps a delicious Molson Dry from the polar ice, in exchange for a handful of anchovies.

Anchovies are delicious.
Carlsson: Ya hey der, Ole!

Ole: Hey der!

Ole: Oh, ya! He'll only retrieve for me a light beer though. I think he's trying to tell me I'm too fat!

Carlsson: Well heck der, Ole! You did have the double helpin' of Martha's lutefisk and potatoes, ya know!

Heart Break

It may be different for everybody. Most commonly people feel their heart ache and can't stop crying.
I felt numb and didn't let myself cry. If I started crying I would do everything to stop it. So you really don't get a good cry. You start to feel extremely sad. Possibly have a hard time talking to your friends about it. Feel a lot of self doubt like feeling embarrassed and stupid for falling in love. A lot of regret comes in. Then something may happen, like them saying hi to you (and/or) something related happened. All of the sudden that built up sadness, anger, heart break makes you breakdown. Your friends may start to notice your distance. Don't do what I did. Otherwise you're stuck. Don't ignore your feelings. Don't be ashamed to cry, just don't. It feels like a very sticky wax being pulled off slowly on your skin. I chose to not reflect the situation, the memories, the relationship, and myself. I distracted my thoughts and kept my mind busy instead. If you can relate to this I would feel a great relief because this feels like it isn't normal. If you went through a break up and looked this up just know your a bad bitch ;) and I know you can get through this <3
