Super-shitty day in a super-shitty week in a super-shitty month in a super-shitty year that looks like it's going to be at least another 10 months of abject, stressful, heinous, evil, angry bullshit.
I'm checking out for a while while I still have some friends. Don't ask, don't write. The only reason you should be seeing this is if you follow me or you're looking in global. Either way, don't comment, don't share.
Okay - serious response.
Breaks are good. One of the things I love most about my boyfriend is he forces me to get away from work / home. We were in Portland this weekend. We went camping a few weeks ago. We did that month long travel around Asia thing. It's not about what you do or where you go - camping in Malibu serves the same purpose as a 36 hour travel to Sri Lanka.
It forces you to not deal with the routine that we all so easily slip into, especially when the weather is bad or things aren't going our way or we are way too busy dealing with work. Routines and habits are important but so are breaks. Setting aside time to disconnect or simply not do the usual helps reset your body and your mind so that you can return refreshed and deal with the shitstorm we call life.
Also food. I'm going to email the wife and tell her to feed you. My boyfriend does and excellent job at that as well. Just shoves food in front of my face whenever I get bitchy so I'm not bitchy anymore.
