I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

I have misery that I want to be put out of.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Want to trade miseries, shrift? We shall each have something new, at least.

I'm not sure I'm woman enough to handle your misery, ita, but I'd be willing to take it off you for a day if I could. I think I still have some sick time in the bank for a trip to the ER.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

1) why aren't the gofugyourself girls back at work yet?
2) why am I so unmotivated to work? I have 3 notebooks to go through in the next 2 days
3) the goodies that came into the office came in cute containers. is it tacky for me to take them (the containers, not the goodies)?

I hate being sick. There's something I should have taken care of today, and I would have had the person I needed information from been in the office, but I could have asked if she had a backup person before, like, 4pm. If only I had a brain that wasn't currently being boiled alive in my skull.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

(my parents get up at 5:30. FIVE THIRTY. So when I get up, they are all talkative, awake and crap. Even after 40 minutes of shower and sloooowly getting dressed, I don't wanna talk yet. I can't.)

We get up at 5:30 here too.

I got up this AM at 3:00 and went to USELESS urgent care. Though doctor fucktard did prescribe antibios, even though he doesn't think I have a viral infection. I'm the reason there will be a super bacteria.

Also, months ago someone asked about the people who wipe down the handles of carts with the wipes and we all laughed. Then I realized those carts get washed like NEVER. And I freaked myself out. And now I'm sewing a cart seat cover for noah.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Man. I'm just having a shit time coping and breaking down into crying jags every hour or so.

And there's nothing I can put my finger on that's really wrong except that I'm so tired right into my bones.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

PMS'ing???

I'm done with work, but am not in a rush to go home. I just want to hide somewhere and ignore everyone. Not very productive, but it is all I got.

tired will do that, Allyson. It's okay. you'll be home very very soon.

I just made a dog bed. I've been trying to do that for almost a year. Next up, blankets and cart cover. I'm on a ROLL.

Yeah, I don't think there needs to be much more of a reason than tired. It takes away your reserves.
