    People.

    Who need their hands held.

    Or ears held because some of the convos I've been having with clients today have lasted an hour or been 4 different phone calls with one person and me and my *censored* are all talked out.

    It sounds like you may have been visited by the same 'narcissistic time vampires' as @Ashkea76

    On the bright side; the weekend is here.

    I'm so sorry. I hope that you have a less, uhh, talk-y day tomorrow.

    And thanks, that's nice of you. FWIW, I too will be working. Fortunately alone though, I'm good at alone :D

    My left eye has some issue.
    My eyes have been itching so badly.
    Watering, red, left one not opening 100%.
    I went online, searched best otc eyedrops for itchy eyes, bought some, itty bitty bottle…..$42.00!!!!!!
    One drop and my eye immediately stopped feeling so itchy and inflamed.

    Other than hormones, parents, culture, technology, pressure, anxiety, trauma, the world, being human what could it be other than demons? Definitely demons.

    An old coworker from many moons ago happens to be one of my professor’s this semester. He frames questions in a way to try to get the student to respond so that the answer leans one way regarding controversial issues. He marks me down consistently because I disagree or pushback on the bias in the phrasing of some of his questions. I refuse to pander just to get a good grade. Very very biased teaching. The next 8 weeks should prove interesting.

    I absolutely detest this. Education should be factual and nothing more. Keep pushing back!

    I do not have the temperament to be a negotiator, arbiter or intermediary.
    I wish certain people in my family would stop forcing me to be just that.
    For decades I’ve felt like a referee, I’m tired of it and am not going to allow it any more.
    I am tired of being nice all the time.

    Printed out my boss' W2 and mine came out with it and I'm making less now than I did in 2018. Part of that's on me, tho. I stopped giving him my overtime for....reasons.

    Breaking my glasses .

    Look, I know you really wanted that painting, but throwing your glasses at the auctioneer was a bit much. I’ve only just managed to pick all the shards out of my face.
