Ugh, I am so nervous about my first day of work tomorrow D: D: D: It'll be fine. I know it will be fine. But. First day and all. Oh god. I just thought about it again. I hope I sleep tonight. I hope I'm not a crazy person in the morning. I hope I don't, you know, embarrass myself or totally fuck up on my first day or set something on fire or arrrrgggghhhh.

Anxiety D:

Anyway. Um. So. Freaking out about that.

Last night we went out waaaay past our bedtime to see April Smith and the Great Picture Show at some place in Allston. THAT'S HOW MUCH WE LOVE APRIL SMITH, GUYS. We went two buses away for a set at ten pm on a work night. THAT'S A LOT OF LOVE.

Totally worth it, as always. If any of you dudes ever get a chance to see April Smith and her adorable band play, you need to jump at it. They've got a few tour dates left, including NYC tomorrow.

Anyway, they were adorbs.

Afterward, we waited for a bus and talked about gay prison movies, according to Twitter. I'm sure April Smith really appreciated checking Twitter and seeing that transition.

Today was kind of a really efficient exercise in frustration? I had to get a drug screening for the new job and I THOUGHT I made an appointment at a place in Boston, but apparently it was Brookline, which I didn't realize until I was on the bus heading for Lechmere. I jumped off the bus like, two stops after I got on, and ran back home, totally panicking. I managed to drive over there and get parking and everything with plenty of time to spare. I had also agreed to pick up brilligspoons' laptop for writing, since I thought I would be around her work, so I ended up driving there to get her keys and then going by her place before I went home. All told, I was done a lot sooner than I would have been if I took the train, but that crazy burst of crazy at the start of the day was NOT what I needed on a day when I was already super anxious.

Anyway, then I got to writing and realized I had forgotten my laptop charger and freaked over THAT (for no reason since I had gotten Margaret's for her and her computer, unlike mine, can run without being plugged in, and our chargers are interchangeable) and only got a very little bit of writing done and... yes.

::flaily hands::

But I wrote a little? And it's maybe okay. And tomorrow will be okay. I already figured out what I'm wearing and packed my lunch and I'm going to take a shower in a moment and then try and calm my tits. And maybe write the reconciliation for the fight I wrote this afternoon.

rl blathering, april smith, i am crazy, music, set list, friends
