[weeklyish misc]
frolic
feelin like shit today, slept bad and it has been pissing rain nonstop since yesterday
frolic
which would be fine except 1) it means pip doesn't want to go out and when he does he won't run around, and who can blame him
frolic
2) we were supposed to have our first in-person masked choir rehearsal today but we won't if it is still raining in the evening
frolic
somehow I did not think there was a format of rehearsal more depressing than Not Rehearsing but it turns out Zoom Rehearsal is it
frolic
that + reading about Delta variant stuff and I'm just feeling very doom & gloom today. I'm so fucking tired. of the whole world
Lana
frolic
also my manager who I barely got to know is leaving the company for an allegedly cooler opportunity in two weeks
frolic
this is now the second manager I've gone through lol
Lana
yikes, i'm sorry
frolic
it's okay, in both cases they've moved onto greener pastures so it's not like.... high turnover from getting fired the way it was at valve
frolic
I'm afraid of getting lost in the shuffle but I also need to remember that I am already FT and can calm down (slightly)
Lana
starting a new job is about getting settled and it's hard to get settled if your supervisors keep shifting, so don't be too hard on yourself

i've had the same thing happen with line producers - it's like, what do you know that i don't!!!!! but it's usually fine.
frolic
hahah yeah
frolic
it has felt very positive all around, I knwo they're not leaving bc they hate it
frolic
our job is honestly not like super exciting or glamorous
frolic
I finished my work early and I'm debating on whether I should start tomorrow's work now
frolic
but then I'll have finished it early tomorrow
frolic

frolic

frolic

ᴬ⭐ᴵᴼᴺ

frolic
my ears HURT but they will manage
frolic
gotta retrain them to have spikes thru the lobes
Lana
OH YAY i hope you had a good time
Lana

Lana
no hurt, ears!
frolic
today I signed back up for therapy bc betterhelp is included with my work benefits and I had the revelation recently that maybe... I don't have to... solve my burnout alone
frolic
and maybe like... a professional.... might know some strategies for me
frolic
the last time I was in therapy it was because of the absolute disaster I am in romantic relationships, which weirdly is something in which I have become fairly confident over the course of the pandemic
frolic
apparently all I had to do was see only chris every day for a whole year + in which we are unable to leave our houses for anything other than necessities
frolic
er house not houses
frolic
the fact that I haven't had a single panic about us Committing to having a dog for the next 10+ years bodes well
Lana
good job taking care of yourself, friend! ❤️
