Well, back at work after a long weekend. Not really feeling it.

On the other hand, nice relaxing weekend, didn't do much of anything. On the other other hand, been raining for the last 2 days solid.

We are very fortunately located in a temperate clime and it IS autumn but spring and autumn here are very similar. Temps ranging in the 20Cs, sunny, and perfect for working outdoors.

I like all the seasons here with a much lesser liking for winter. I like going to the snow

in Winter but winter and the cold not so much BUT we do get our fair share of sunny cold days too.

No rain for us yet

Still, Wednesday is a public holiday, and so is next Wednesday, so that's two weeks ruined...

People like me never actually buy the cookie.
Why not?

I hear ya... I had an awful day with people yesterday.
found some things out about The Challenges of Modern Life.
I will be less naive this week. *sigh*

yeah... this week was rough.
like, yesterday I was just scared of various problems and I contributed to the badness of the situations... ah well, we'lll see what's next.
(I actually really love that SRD mental-line of Covenant that is basically, "Keep moving. Find out what happens next.")

Buy yourself a cookie. You deserve it. I hope this week contains less badness.

We are not off to a great start, but there has been some kindness "pumped into the system."

I mostly don't -actually- buy cookies for various reasons.
I literally encountered a choice like this today and I took the bagel that was 1/2 the price of the thing I wanted.
Then I made a joke about how poor/cheap I was.
This seemed to result in the cashier thinking I was flirting with him, so I went really silent.

poor dude.

unless he had a good friend working there too and they just laughed it up when I left. cause it was legit a funny situation if you looked at it the right way.

Sounds like fun.

I will try not to be a bad influence. (Me in a bakery post-Passover will be a bad influence.) I've spent a lot of my life denying myself stuff, and I've found it's more fulfilling (at least where little things are concerned) to delay the gratification rather than mercilessly bringing the hammer down on it. (You can have that later rather than you can't have that.) It's the little things, sometimes. Especially after a bad week.

I was picking up the kids from school the other day, which I do, but had stayed up late watching Game of Thrones and saying goodbye to my mother who was going back to Chicago. I also woke up extra early that morning and couldn't go back to sleep. After a long day at work of frequent nodding off, I went home and had about a 30 minute nap and was still groggy when I woke up. I think I had just entered REM sleep or something because I had that fighting to rise above water kinda waking time. So I was running late and rushed to school, and I had been told there was some kind of school thing that I just had to take the kids around to get something signed at different tables and they will get ice cream at the end. I had no idea what was going on, and the kids spotted friends and rushed on in. I felt like I couldn't think as I was still groggy, and the kids ran off in different directions and I kind of had what I think may have been my first big panic attack, especially after my daughter completely disappeared and I couldn't find her anywhere. Finally I found her again, and just really needed to step away from the giant swarm of kids and chaos and confusion. I did it under the guise of "let's bring your backpacks and such to the car so that we don't have to carry that around." I spoke with my wife because I felt like I needed to be talked down a bit, and she said to just take them out for ice cream and not to go back. After driving clear across town with many near accidents because now it was rush hour and people in Denver just simply don't know how to drive, I just wanted to go fetal and mew and gibber for a bit, but kept it together, and spent $20 to avoid a large crowd of kids.
It was horrible. I felt like it was my first taste of Alzheimers or dementia or something, where you just can't get ahold of your brain and everything is out of control.

I hope it passes soon.

I'm sure it will. I just need more sleep and less caffeine.

The second is not that tough....the first though...good luck with that.

Public holiday yesterday, so today is probably mostly going to be spent wishing it was Friday.
