things that are making me want to cry today

  • Having to wait 10 days for an appointment to see someone about my knee that has already been hurting for two weeks.
  • Not complaining about the wait.
  • Taking too long to find my second elephant earring.
  • Talking to a career advisor about alternative careers.
  • Reading the CVs/resumes of all the overachievers in the materials she gave me.
  • Missing out on a seat on the bus.
  • Getting my samples all ready and then finding out there was no wash buffer left.
  • Reading an article about selective mutism that says the goal of treatment is to "create an environment that assures the child that, “You are capable. You have interesting things to say. You are fun to be around.”" because I don't really believe any of those are true.
  • Other people being in the kitchen when I went to eat lunch.
  • Having to present at lab meeting tomorrow.
  • This photo (and not even the fact that they were rescued from a fire).
  • The fact that none of the anti-depressants I've tried have ever done anything so there's probably no point trying again.

I believe those things are true.

I also think it's very brave of you to start talking to someone about alternative careers.

And, last but not least, what Songbird said: ((((lucy))))

Sending good vibes your way
In lieu of hugs and chocolate because I don't know you're address :o)

Hang in there, chickadee. Like Phantom Scribbler said: I believe those things of you too

Sigh - excuse the poor grammar above.
Unless of course you 'are' an address :o)
