I'm doing better today, am still pissed off but not a blubbering mess like yesterday. It helps that I went into church today and was able to commiserate with people there.
I can tell that it's getting cold and dry since I had a spontaneous nosebleed as I was working in the kitchen. I politely dismissed myself for the sake of not getting my blood everywhere, though it stopped pretty quickly.
Since there's the whole spirit of Thanksgiving thing going around right now I was thinking about what I'm thankful for, and here's what I came up with:
1. I'm thankful for my family, who support me and keep me going when things seem too hard to handle
2. I'm thankful for my friends both on and offline for being there for me and for being willing to give up most of their day to keep me company while I bawl my eyes out
3. I'm thankful for my extended family of UUs and their unconditional support for me and other LGBT people
4. I'm thankful for this city and this state for being a leader in civil rights on the local and national stage
life,
friends,
family
