    @ygathgoch Thank you! I'm also seeing my psychologist today so that's good timing! I alternate between feeling ready and confident and terrified about every hour or so. I've decided to work on tasks I like at work instead of boring paperwork/reading to keep my mind occupied in the meantime. I'm just hoping I get some good sleep tonight!

  • Thinking about my naturalization interview tomorrow and imagining hypothetical questions they might ask and wondering if this is a good or bad answer in the currently political climate. (Please insert laughing crying emoji hear followed by grimacing emoji.)

  • Waking up, thinking, wondering about the future and all of us. Where we'll go, what we should do, what can be avoided and what can be built.

    @donthatedontkill Traveling here at the end of next month, hope I don't get too many weird looks (I'm part Portuguese so should be fine? Lol)

  • Lisbon is nice. The people are cool. But it attracts way to many expats™

  • Oh no, not me again staring into the camera during a meeting frustrated about the dispersed nature of our conversation before finally telling the whole executive board to stay focused and methodical and to go line by line in the excel I prepared and answer my questions.
    My jaw aches from clenching it for about 45 minutes straight. The stess of trying to keep up with the rapidly changing topics and also finding where to interject was a lot.

    @ciredutempsEsme Emotionally ok and emotional intelligence aren't the same for me. I'm definitely not emotionally ok haha but I like to think I have a good level of emotional intelligence

  • So just got finished talking (briefly) to a rare gay French guy who calls himself poly. And it was kind of weird. I'll spare the details but I think what was "weird" about that interaction is that I expect (maybe naively) poly people to be more emotionally intelligent. That was not the case.

    Long story short: I'm fucked. I should just become a monk and call it a life.

    @small_cypress Same. I've been wanting to just stay in for some amount of time, but part of that feels like defeat, and I don't know what to do.

    @bazkie Doing my best. But there's not a lot. I'm very disappointed in the willful ignorance (and perhaps cowardice?) of a lot of the people around me.

    Wind rushing by my ears

    As I wake up
    To a once hidden nightmare.
