if not, you could have fooled me. i'm ok, and even if i'm not, i know i will be. but it's just a rough one right now.
boss handed me the opportunity to really step up. now i'm afraid of blowing it. inner dialogue: "just. keep. breathing." "YOU DON'T HAVE TIME TO BREATHE!" "write it all in your head, then write it on paper - it will materialize like all your best work. just let it happen." "IF YOU DON'T SEND THAT SECOND DRAFT IN FIVE MINUTES..."
aye.
on the up side, got some really pleasantly surprising and insightful advice from a higher up who, by pulling an unnoticed fast one, is sorta becoming an unexpected friend. it was not only comforting, but in a way rather complimentary to see her draw natural connections to our mutual strengths and weaknesses. i told her i was sorta thinking of law school all over again (she's a lawyer, among other amazing things) as well as my dad's latest comment about my career path, "lee, you are my smartest and most gifted child -insert CAN YOU BELIEVE HE ACTUALLY SAYS THIS SHIT? comment here. you really need to realize your intellectual potential because you'll never be able to get by on your looks, like your sister." thanks, pops. i know i can always count on you to make me feel better ;)
2:35 and the procrastination panic is starting to set in... more later.
