I said I'm sorry. I've made mistakes, but fear was never one of them.

Coding and Sleeping

When everyone says you are a failure it's probably true

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Who is everyone? We are telling you you're a good person and a hard worker who accomplishes more in a week than many of us do in a month.

'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"

How's your wife doing, Gud? I'm actually kind of worried about her, too. You know you have my admiration and support!

Thrive to spite them

Gud if people at work are saying you are a failure you need to get out it's a toxic work environment.

If your wife is saying that you need to get out it's a toxic home environment.

WE are not saying that. We believe in you and know you are capable of doing this job.

Please please believe us. Also make sure you get more rest. Sleep is important.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

We ended up postponing the playdate because Gary's fighting a cold. They're busy tomorrow, so it'll have to be a different weekend.

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

No, that doesn't sound right. Who is this "everyone"?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

This may or may not be relevant, but also feedback about how to improve, especially when you're doing something new, is not the same thing as being a failure. You should be learning at your new job! It's still new!

Jesse is a manager, you know. And she's studied management, too, which gives her a certain amount of authority on workers getting to know their new jobs!

This times a million.

It's true. I'm very reliable on this front.
