I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Is she actually, literally a praying mantis or some other parasite?
HAHAHHA Please let this be true!
I do think it's really a kind of instinct. Because maybe if it's not as bad as what happened to someone else, you can believe the impact is not that bad to you.
Right. Like many things, it's a coping mechanism, but it has side-effects. It's not inherently bad.

The Lexapro is like finally getting rid of the gigantic eyesore in the room but then finding out how much clutter had collected behind it. Time to get the mental dumpster.

My sister-in-law made my wedding dress. I would have been happy going to the courthouse in jeans.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Jesse I wish I was excited about the prospect of dating. I just want to like someone who magically likes me back with minimal meeting of new people that are not that. I really want someone from my past to swoop in, be perfect for me, and live happily ever after.
No, I know. I was faking enthusiasm. I would like that as well, except not with anyone from my past. My one former coworker married the FedEx guy; that sounds good to me!
I do think it's really a kind of instinct. Because maybe if it's not as bad as what happened to someone else, you can believe the impact is not that bad to you.
Yeah, that.
I have had the longest week ever and I can't imagine how I'm going to get through another day. Every day has had a field trip, which just makes it seem longer.

I'm trying not to be annoyed with USPS because they claimed they couldn't get into my building to deliver a package, but they are supposed to deliver to the leasing office when that happens. And they didn't leave a note, so I can't tell them to GO TO THE LEASING OFFICE.
I have a boarding pass. I have to do all the things tonight, but I have drafted a high level project plan. I think this means I should go outside and get some sunshine.
