today's been a bit of a surreal day. I had something come into my inbox on tumblr that's been needling me all day (i'm thinking of turning off anon, because honestly if you want to take issue with something I've said please at least do me the courtesy of saying it to my face) and I've been working on processing it. My parents called me last night at about 8pm saying 'hey do you want to go walk around Stanley Park tomorrow morning?' and I said no because a) didn't wanna and b) I had plans to write, and so I spent the whole day feeling guilty about that. And my writing today was crap so that makes me feel even worse. Why is describing human interaction so hard?

Tomorrow is back to work and I have a feeling that this week is going to be verging on a disaster, but I'll do what I can. I'm lucky in that I have a great boss and a good bunch of people and it makes it a bit easier when I know that everyone is working as hard as I am (something I haven't had in previous jobs so I'm doubly conscious of that).

So anyway. Here's to another week.

You deserve to feel better and people who give out passive-aggressive negativity deserve to learn better (maybe through hard personal lessons).

Describing human interaction is hard because it doesn't all happen in words, and having it in the first place is hard. You do it extremely well, and it doesn't surprise me at all that it is difficult even for someone as good at it as you.

like I think understand where they got the idea they did, but the level of nitpicking makes it easier to just avoid interacting on all social mediums. the downside of tumblr. and anon.

thank you very much for your kind words :)
