Dear Breadfish: know this was posted a while ago, hope you are faring well...

Nothing original to add here - just wanted to reach out and send some support. I tried to ignore/downplay my feelings about these days, but have learned it's okay just to take time off and comfort myself.

I hide out in bed - have a great soft blanket, turn off the lights, and turn on the fan (whitenoise), and snuggle with my cat. I set my cell phone to some innocuous message ("sorry, in class right now!") and sometimes partake of the chocolate. For some reason, watching reruns of the Golden Girls is helpful - they are my visual equivalent of meatloaf - no suspense, predictable (seen them so many times), comforting.


Take care - Bolivar
