Please don't mind me. I'm in the middle of a very long day right now, and I need some outlet to gripe about it.

I've been having meetings up the wazoo all day, and then have my weekly social obligations tonight. I want to deal with NONE OF IT. I don't feel like being professionally pleasant today. But I have to be. Come one, Bjørnen, turn up the brightness in your voice. They can sense weakness.

I should be grateful for my place in life. I should be thankful for my job, and for the fact that I have friends who love me and would be sad if they didn't get to see me every week. But today I don't want any of it. I feel like an ungrateful, socially inept mess today. I just want to isolate myself from the outside world.

How many more meandering, faux-pleasant conversations are left in the work day? Five more hours? Groan.

Sorry. I'll probably be back to complain more before the day's over.

Some days I just want to disappear from the world too and be left alone.... I can totally relate to your sentiments. Meetings are a pain sometimes, especially when you have multiple and are not in the mood... and socializing when you don't feel like it can be a chore. I am sure that you are grateful, just right now you don't feel like doing these things, which is perfectly understandable!! Hope u make it through the day Ok and can relax and unwind afterwards. ((((Hugs)))))

Thank you, Eve. I'll try my best to keep these things in mind today.

Well, I cancelled my plans with friends tonight, and rescheduled a few appointments. I just can't do it today. Maybe tomorrow. Not today.

Some days are like that and you just want to be alone. Hope you are feeling better today.

Good for you for knowing your limits and taking care of yourself.
