Let me tell you a little story about Kristen. Bad things happen to Kristen, but she smiles and rolls with the punches. Unfortunately, the opposition is taking the upperhand.
I'm so tired. I don't mind caring for people who need it, but when someone knows better than to get themselves shit-face drunk...
I just want to curl up and die... I got 2 hours of sleep before starting my official first day as a Tech 2. I had to be opening and closing supervisor with no training and no sleep because no one else was in town to do it. I mostly wouldn't care too much, but I feel aweful.
I want to cry until I pass out, but if I do, I'll most likely drown thanks to drainage probably caused by a sinus infection. My head and back ache with tension and fatigue. Inside, I'm screaming with agony. I don't even bother to ask "Why me?" anymore... it does no good... I'll I do now is pray for strength and hope I can persevere another day.
Granted, this isn't a daily occurance, but when it rains, I seem to get nailed with puppies and kitties until I'm bitten, clawed, and beaten to the ground. The funny part is, the prayers get answered... even if just for a little while.. a friend comes along with an arm to drag me to shelter now and then.. even for just a spell...

Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired, and success achieved.
