I thought this was going to be a busy night at the bookstore because there were people here when I first opened, but it has mostly been a slow night. Probably too cold for people to want to go out.
Doesn't winter seem more like archiving season?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'm getting all antsy with waiting to hear back from the jobs I interviewed for. I am really not good at waiting. (And I know that, even if I do hear back, it'll either be a rejection or an invitation for an on-campus interview, which will mean even more waiting. And then possibly a job.)

Hil, I really hope you find something good and soon.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Suzi, I hope you have a lovely time!
sj, I'm glad your mom is ok.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I'm having one of those days where I'm jittery as hell, despite only one cup of coffee and no jitter-causing meds or anything. And my left arm is twitching. Really weird. I feel like a speed freak right now. And it's making it really hard to concentrate on editing.

That sounds unpleasantly wacky, Teppy.

I feel like I need anti-coffee. (I used to think that milk was the anti-coffee, but in practice, I haven't found this to be true.) Ativan, I suppose, is the anti-coffee. I'm going to go to the gym to try to burn off the jitters. If that doesn't work, I might take half an Ativan. This is WEIRD.

Do you feel jittery and low energy at the same time? I sometimes get a mixture of jitters and low energy when my blood sugar is high.

Oh, no. This is run-a-marathon speed-freaky jitters. I'm going to the gym as soon as I finish my onerous task of scheduling a sushi-making class. I'm hoping the jitters will burn off like booze on a flambe.

Teppy, I get that way sometimes before an anxiety attack. Try not to push yourself too hard at the gym until you're sure it won't make it worse.
