half the battle
i am aware that it is 9:30 am and i have to get to sleep then be at a potluck by 5:30 tonight. so i should probably be wearing a sleep mask and hugging a pillow already. but i am feeling less lonely and disconnected which i know is in part due to regular journaling.( another component is getting enough sleep that i don't resent hanging out with people instead of being asleep.) so i came, i typed and i am sated.
