If it's March 28th, then that makes it three years since I went to visit Dr Brownstein in San Francisco for my top surgery. Wow, three years. It doesn't feel like it's been that long at all, more like two. It also means that it's three years since Michael and I became a couple - though that anniversary was actually yesterday.
Even with these milestones, I feel really kind of down tonight. It might be because of the training session I just had for work. It was to do with responding to offensive and hurtful statements which is quite challenging. Also my boss and I discussed the incident at the penultimate workshop where I was forced to out myself so that got me a bit upset all over again.
On top of that, I'm exhausted. I've not had a good night's sleep all week, mostly because of the weather keeping me awake. I've been getting to sleep pretty late on but having to get up early so it's all mounted up and now I think I've got to the point where I'm overtired which is making it harder to sleep too. I don't like feeling out of sorts, and generally feeling that way is enough to make me feel even more out of sorts so it's a vicious circle. Maybe losing myself in a book or a film or a bar of chocolate will help. Or at least, pass the time till I'm ready to go to bed.
