Google tells me its the equinox today. Seems early, somehow.
Not knowing if our warehouse is going to continue shipping is stressing me out. Why is this the thing that eats at me?
Wesley: I stabbed you. I should apologize for that. But I'm honestly not sure how. I think it'll just be awkward. Gunn: Good call. Wesley: Okay.

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

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
which is like DefCon1 level serious for practicing Catholics.
Especially since it's Lent. The prospect of not going to church on Easter is...wow.

Trying to math, and I'm thinking your quarantine will be over soon. Happy post-Q Day, Nilly!
I've been toying with letting my pixie grow back out to a short bob again, and this seems like the perfect time to do that.
I've discovered the joys of DoorDash, and I'll be supporting my local dumpling place for lunch today.
Anxiety presents as insomnia for me, so you can imagine how that's been going lately. Last night I finally fell asleep and dreamed that I'd set up a bed in an empty grocery store and was snoozing there. Bit on the nose, subconscious. I will expect better from you tonight. At least throw some tapdancing squirrels into the mix.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Nilly, I'm so glad you can now isolate with your family instead of from them.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I will re-up my recs for getting to sleep podcasts, all free
Sleep Cove
Nothing Much Happens: Bedtime stories for Adults
and
Meditation Oasis - which is a much broader meditation podcast, but that has some specifically for getting to sleep, anxiety, anger - and also has at least one for kids, which I used with Mac several times when he was younger and could not get to sleep.
All of these will likely require repetitive use before they are very effective - give yourself a week of using one each night to see if there is improvement - you are training your brain and body.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
A small bit of good news: Tulsi Gabbard is no longer running for president.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
That is good news.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The prospect of not going to church on Easter is...wow.
My church decided that we will just have Easter whenever we can. It's not like it's a real date anyway! And won't the resurrection be that much more meaningful?

Our wings are not tired.
She endorsed Joe, that should cause a big jump in his polls.
I may have hurt my jaw clenching my teeth as my son went on and on about how stupid all the voters are who have refused to vote for the Only Person who can defeat Trump, Bernie of course. Be proud of me, as I did not engage. Well, I did point out that the people who showed up and voted in record numbers didn't agree with him, including half the voters in Vermont. It didn't help his rage.

A small bit of good news: Tulsi Gabbard is no longer running for president.
I seriously forgot she was still in.
