It looked lovely on my shelf, but extreme sneezing is frowned upon these days. And it's not all that fun.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
Morning, insomniacs and people who will see this post in usual business hours.
I am stressed and I've been stressed since yesterday noon. I think I am re-discovering that even if I do my best to do everything I can to do all the chores and tasks and work and school and asking friends how they are, it still doesn't help with the politics or the pandemic numbers to be any better.

Aw Shir. You can only do what you can do. I'm sure you're doing a lot and helping yourself and others. Make sure you leave time to help yourself though!!
If that doesn't make sense it's because it's 1am and I woke up after sleeping a few hours and decided it is boiling hot in here and had to move the fam, and then move it again, and now am waiting to feel cool again. It's actually 73 in here, which isn't boiling, but is still too warm in my book.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Huh... so THAT's where I got "I'm not making this up, you know" from. A favorite catchphrase for me, because really, there is so much downright weird stuff out there that goes against the logic that we think we know.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yes, sorry.

I'm better now, thanks. Meditation and breathing help. The part of me that usually believes that all that society needs to function and flourish is responsible people being responsible and doing their jobs, however, is slightly freaking out/despairing.
I cannot believe I choose public administration as an MPA in 2019. I had no idea, guys. There's so much to fix. So much.

Right with you. Can I stay there for a couple months?

I've been feeling this way for weeks. I'm at the point where I know it's not healthy to be isolating myself this way but I also don't want to do anything or talk to anyone.
