2023-09-15 17:55This week has been screams into a pillow
I've had to get up early every single day despite what my schedule would have been. Had to make up all kinds of appointments that I had to cancel during jury duty week. Had to quit both my jobs which weighed me down with anxiety and guilt, and a very tiny part of my anxiety brain is trying to suggest that the new job I just got will decide last second that they don't want me after all and then I'll be stuck with 0 jobs.
Which I know is silly and very unlikely.
I intended to use today as my one day to sleep in and then write all day, but then I get a text this morning from The Person asking me if I could call them because they got in a car accident, and of course my instinct is to swoop in the very second she needs me; an instinct that is so strong that I woke from a dead sleep mere minutes after the message came through, even though my phone is and has always been on silent/no vibration and I had not been asleep for more than five hours or so. I sensed a disturbance in the force.
(She's okay. She's perfectly fine. Uninjured. Filed a claim. Came home, made tea, curled up on the couch, all while on the phone with me. Then we both ordered Taco Bell to our respective homes and watched a movie together.)
Point is, uuuuugh I'm SLEEPY though, and my brain won't brain, and I just want to take ten naps even though I've got a lot of stuff that needs doing.
I don't wanna work tomorrow, but I will, and then maybe. MAYBE. Sunday I can do absolutely nothing (except sleep and write as planned).
