Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I'm not OK. Too many loved ones and friends who were already marginalized just got pushed right off of the ledge.

My immediate family were the only ones against him. The rest of the cousins, and my uncle, were loud and proud supporters.

I'm sickened by the gloating. And worried about how we move forward.

I can't even. I'm sorry, my friends.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

I went back to bed. That's going to have to be good enough for now.

I'm up. I've showered and gotten dressed. I guess I need to go to the office, working in the city today. And do what when I get there? I don't fucking know.

Nice.

My self care today - kinda lacking. I haven't showered or put on a bra. I'm working in my PJs. I have a ton of work to get done since I'm taking Friday off so they can SHOOT A LASER AT MY EYEBALL. I am doing a kind of fast for the next two days (it isn't a true fast, but it is a very limited intake beyond water thing) so I won't stress eat the rest of the cake that is in the fridge. If the rest of the family doesn't finish it tonight, I'm chucking it.

I want to travel and hang out with a Buffista or two (or five hundred). Not sure I can swing that before the end of the year - but next year Buffista travel will be one of my goals.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm just working and trying not to think.

You got me beat!

I just feel this heavy weight on my shoulders and the tears are barely contained. Do I up my anti-depressants? Do I take half a Lorazapam to help fight off this feeling? Will that knock me out today? Or let me get work done? These are questions I think I can answer.

But there are so many big picture questions I can't even voice right now. Though the one that really punches me in the gut is - if there is some way to impeach Trump or get him to resign, then we get Pence. Who....I can't decide which one would be worse for the country. Both terrify me.

I'm avoiding most of FB, just reading a few groups that are politics free for the most part. I have Angel on the tv in the background and the only news I want to look up is how the rest of the Colorado ballot issues went.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Pence seems less likely to get us into a global war, I guess? Small comfort.

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

Have eaten breakfast. Making lunch. Next up, shower. If I can figure out what to wear, I should be able to make it in to work, and presumably there will be enough work stuff to fill up my head and keep me busy today.
