I think your gut is being wise, Sophia! Sometimes a lie of omission is the right way to go.
You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, man, Sophia. That is a lot. I'm glad if talking through it here helps. EAP therapy sounds like a good plan.
I don't know about today. What I should do is mow the lawn, buy some groceries, do laundry, and read about Supply Chain Management. What I want to do is go back to the Tomato Festival and drink Bloody Marys and listen to live music and read Ellery Queen. What I actually am doing so far is lying in bed trying to gauge how much my feet will hurt if I walk around on them much, a little or a lot? Limited time and fragile bodies, sigh.

Our wings are not tired.
Go with your gut, Sophia. It's been telling you what you need to know all along.
100% - and no apologies. We are here for you to talk to.

That's so much pressure, Sophia. I think a neutral 3rd party would be very beneficial to sort this through.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Went to the Masquerade last night. Lot of good entrants. Gonna drop Mr. S at child care for a few hours this afternoon.

Oh! I did make my 13 rides, so the bonus money is mine. It's nice to have achievable goals.

Go with your gut, Sophia. It's been telling you what you need to know all along.
For sure!! And therapy is a great idea.

Sophia, that is a lot. I think you're instincts are right, but talking to an objective person is wise.
Dad update: I was all set to go up home today when my sister called that they'll be transporting my dad here this week because his defibrillator/pacemaker needs its battery changed. His heart rhythms seems to be stabilized after a medication change. Now they're waiting for a bed to become available for him here.
