Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm glad you are taking a breather in between, Maria. Congratulations!

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

I am feeling completely overwhelmed today and am doing my best to settle my head down.

-school registration is 1:30 - 3:30 which I need to try to do on my lunch hour
- cannot find proof of mac's shots for registration
- also have therapy tonight which means I should leave work early
- walked into work with a list of things being asked of me that no one had sent via email
- I am still 2 days behind on paperwork from the loss of power and network last week
- overslept

since my write ups at previous job had to due with attendance reliability, I am always stressed when I have to take work time for shit. I had emailed my boss last week about registration though. I should have just taken a vacation day. stupid.

Good luck msbelle. I have every confidence you will get through today okay, even with all the stressors ganging up on you like that.

Because books.

I know that feeling, msbelle. Deep breaths.

I'm also totally into this: Coffitivity. I don't know if you can use it, but it's really calming for me -- being here alone, I like the sound of other people, and you can make it just soft enough to be barely noticeable.

People in the hall are incensed over the disappearance of a microwave down the hall. Which was removed because it violated code. There are 3 other microwaves in this floor/wing alone. 2 within 3 steps of the speaker right now.

I can't even.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

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

Shit! I forgot to ask my doctor if a handicapped parking pass was worth it. Is it? What's the procedure of actually getting one? Does it involve the DMV, because...I don't know if I could...but I don't know if there's much point me driving if I have to walk any distance. Work is still freaking me out.
