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.

DAMN THOSE INSECTS
Yes, this week has lasted an eternity already.
Yes, this week has lasted an eternity already.
This is my truth as well.

But as long as heads were still attached to necks, call it a win.

This is so, so true.
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.
Yuuuuppp. I'm hoping that once I'm completely ramped up on my new brain med, I will get a similar effect.
THIS WEEK IS TAKING TOO LONG. Of course, I'm extra-impatient with it, because at this time next week, I'll be headed to Disneyland.

Well ... if she IS a praying mantis, maybe he won't have long to regret the marriage ....
I don't think anyone has proven this conclusively (and of course FB denies it), but probably yes.
I'm going to start telling my phone I like unicorns and see how long it takes for unicorns to show up in the sidebar.
My morning commute was double the usual distance. Because I finally have my home office set-up.
Thumbs-up to home office!
I'm kinda waiting for the next week to start clean.
I keep doing that and...it's been like a month and a half. Not good.
I've lost track of how long it's been since I actually cleaned anything but the sink. I dunno, I'm not depressed, I just have zero fucking motivation to do anything. Except work; I got caught up for the first time in a year and have stayed caught up, and... I don't understand myself.
I totally need a fidget cube.
I really need a fidget something or other.
PTSD has specific clinical criteria, but a person who doesn't meet those criteria can still be dealing with the effects of a traumatic experience, and that's a valid, hard thing. (Hi, I had therapy today.)
Thank you! I always feel bad about thinking I have PTSD, but seriously bad, terrifying things have happened to me, and I've never really processed them. (Yes therapy. Some things I never even told my therapist.)
I'm glad the Lexapro is helping, Connie.

An apt description.
All my sentences start with "I"! I suck.
I'm looking forward to the Iceland trip, but I'm not mentally prepared. It's next week and I want to go, I just wish it was still next month, not next week. I don't know what I'm anxious about. I've travelled internationally before, I've left the cats with this petsitter before, I have the proper clothes and shoes, all my companions are friends, I have enough money, everything is fine. What is my problem?
