I feel like ass and I am trying to power through, but low-level depression is eating me from the inside. I hate everything.
Oh hai. Although I'm not trying that hard.
I'm not either. And my boss hates me.
I mean, let's say you did kill us. Or didn't. There could be torture. Whatever. But somehow you found the goods. What would your cut be?

I also think lots of reptiles, virtually all fish and invertebrates, and some birds like cuckoos would beg to differ as a species.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I plowed through paperwork yesterday in the hopes that I could train on dispatch today, but it is raining and all jobs cancelled. So now there is very little for me to do.
I do have personal calls I could make: Dr, dentist, eye dr.
And I could clear out and organize the supply cabinets, possibly emptying the bookshelf in my office so I could remove it.
SO much effort though.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'm a 47 year old woman who just had poptarts for breakfast because that was what was in the vending machines, and sometimes getting myself up, dressed, and fed before work is just one thing too many.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Make one call, msbelle!

ok, I made one call. no resolution, but a message left.
I was supposed to have fasting bloodwork done soon after my annual exam in APRIL. that did not so much happen, so now I need to see if the lab order will still be ready if I show up next week.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

You are so not alone. I'm a 50 year old woman who had chips and dip for breakfast because that was the thing that required the least effort. No one at the office needs to know I haven't managed to get showered and properly dressed yet. I can't quit this job ever, because any other job would require me to be up and dressed and fed and at the office by a specific time in the morning, and I don't think I can do that anymore.

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

I failed at the getting dressed part too, because these pants aren't quite as clean as I thought they were.
At least I have cute shoes on.
Anybody up for another round of what shoes are you wearing today?

But that would require eating oatmeal.
