Oh, darling, how good you are at breaking my heart (Yes, I did have Tuesday wine again, but this is a sobering Wednesday morning ( ... )

I said out loud, "God, you're so awesome" while reading this. I really appreciate your support. Honestly. Even a day after the fact, it still resonates and soothes. It's always nice to relate, isn't it?
Saigon/Lotus sounds fantastic, pretty much any day/time you can make it happen. I miss you!

I'm glad this was something you could appreciate because all I was going for was, "Look, from one eclectic busybody to another..." Our curse is, we will always have an interest or goal that goes against something else we believe or are interested in.

I am loving the comments and your responses on this post. Such great discussions (and I <3 XKCD). "Do your best, but no more" is genius.

Nothing I can think to add (too hurried to be thoughtful), but want to say that seeing people who've been where I might end up being in the not too distant future is helpful to me, so I'm glad you're talking about this stuff. Also, there's much to be said for the under-appreciated skill of not turning little mistakes into big mistakes.

If I could sigh any louder you would hear me right now. Thank you for relating, it means a lot. Best of luck with your exams and your own situation. Do your best, but no more---don't sacrifice yourself, because your self is all you have! "sethisalive ==> Seth is all I've". Without it, you don't have you (however silly that sounds, it's true.)
