Sorry about your grandma, MM. :(

I've been to the doctor. My blood pressure at the office was actually 108/80, which maybe supports my decision to get out of this job by the end of March even if I can't find another before then. I'll find out tomorrow if I'll need additional testing or not.

108/80 is considered high?

Because books.
When I went the dentist last week, mine was 160/108. It's never high like that, so I was a little freaked out.
I think there are a lot of reasons for you to get out of that job, shrift. Sanity and health are just two of the best ones.
I'm sorry about your grandmother, MM.

Man, my people are hurting.
All the love, people.
In me news, my folks have officially stated the legal process, and I will be a San Francisco resident in about six to eight months.
Now I just have to figure out how to scrape by until then.

-ma to your grandma, MM.
Shrift, definitely luck wished for a new job for you!
Although I am not even really enjoying my dreams or anything.
I think I slept about 10 hours last night maybe? My shoulder is still hurting a little but nothing like it was yesterday...but now my hip is randomly hurting! WTF, body, why falling apart???
And I had weird dreams too--I was in Hawaii with friends, and we didn't have a hotel room, but it turned out it was Pride, which was cool, except then everything was booked or expensive, so we ended up sleeping on a stairwell?? Very weird.

I don't remember any dreams for years that haven't been mild stress dreams. All about trying to get somewhere and having obstacles, trying to do something, and the ubiquitous "forgot to drop a class I have never attended".

So sorry for your loss, MM.

And then I was able to use this fact in conversation today!

108/80 is considered high?
No, it's good. My blood pressure has been consistently sky high at the doctor's office, and now that I've made the decision that I'm getting out of this job, my blood pressure magically went down even while at the doctor.
When I went the dentist last week, mine was 160/108. It's never high like that, so I was a little freaked out.
You are under a lot of stress, Amy. It's understandable right now. Maybe try to keep an eye on it, though?
