Hope it works out to be as easy as possible. And the buses co-operate as long as you need them to.

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

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I feel like I'm only a somewhat functional adult these days. Like shit gets done, but I'm always way more stressed out than circumstances warrant.
This is me too. I do the stuff that HAS to get done, and that's about it. The bills pay themselves, thank Hermes for autopay, because I would not be able to keep up with paying them. I'm always stressed about what I haven't done, and equally stressed over what I AM doing.
This is a much shorter paragraph than I first wrote. Having read what I wrote down, I think I made the right call, going back to the therapist and the psychiatrist. I am clearly depressed; even I can diagnose this.

I swear I didn't hit Post on that; it posted itself just as I was about to delete it. So I think I'll leave it there.

I think this also = Responsibility Champion. Taking care of yourself = Job One.

Connie, next time just bring in the Mountain Dew in a Coca Cola bottle.
That's the stupidest rule I've ever heard of, but I suppose it's worth it to keep the nurses happy with your husband.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Since we're quoting Hyperbole and a Half, I'm about to go to the bank like a motherfucking adult. Booyah. (I am not, however, taking a shower before I go. Working from home is leading to me having the personal hygiene standards of a C.H.U.D. [I do always shower before Tim comes home. Usually RIGHT BEFORE he comes home, but I am by god clean before he walks in the door.])

Crap, can't keep plants alive. The kids are still alive, so there is that.

Because books.
Yeah, my plants are only hanging in there -- and they're all succulents -- but the kids are okay. So far.

SAME. When I'm sitting at the desk all day editing, sometimes it's just too much of a hassle to shower. But I am not un-depressed, either, so.
