Following the instructions worked much better than my usual winging it. [side note - you hear that vague bosses? Clear instructions help!]
I also got sparkly pink batman underwear for myself. A secret weapon for when I need extra cheer.
Well, look who just popped open a fresh can of venom.

I stick the tissue paper in the bag randomly until the present isn't showing and call it wrapped.
There's a dreadful... not exactly irony... that the time when you have the least energy and resilience is when you most need to rally to fight.

I'm terrible at looking for jobs because when I'm looking is usually when I feel bad about my job! After I got fired, I had two years of grad school and still needed some work therapy before I could effectively apply for a new one.
That's what I need! Work therapy! My job has me feeling like I'm not good at anything and nobody would ever hire me so why bother looking for another job?! Stupid Bad Boyfriend Job!
I had jury duty today and actually got put on a jury. Oof. Have to go back tomorrow but it shouldn't go another day. I hope.

I hope your jury duty is quick and easy, lisah. Enjoy not being at work?

Yeah, it's hard because I just came home and stressed about how impossible it was to catch up on what happened today and make sure everything is in order for when I'm out tomorrow. Plus there was a message from my old boss, who is in a new position with the same company, that was dismissive in a way that made me feel like she didn't really respect me or my expertise at all. ugh.
I did get to spend some time today reading this month's book club selections. The theme this year is Gothic Horror and this month we're reading a Swamp Thing collection and the first Hellblazer collection. Dark!

I could not resist. I am powerless in the face of the sparkly pink batman. For one thing, it's just so fun to say. Sparkly pink batman. Rolls off the tongue.
