This is an excellent question. I think I am being kind enough on the comments and posts - after all, I got a post in today and have over a week to squish in 4 more if I can go back to the daily thing. I did call Grampy, who was glad to hear from me and it was a nice reminder that I'm loved. (I always underestimate how good I feel after talking to family, especially when it's just a short sweet little convo
( ... )
the very best thing I could do is just write it up and then edit it, and I get all verklempt over actually carrying it out.
*nod nod* Putting things off because they're scary/I'm a perfectionist is a huuuuge problem for me. I know I feel so much better once I do them, but it's a struggle every time. Sometimes, with something like writing, I try to go about it a bit ass-backwards in order to fool the perfectionist. I'll start it in the middle, or just write 'blah blah blah' for a few lines, or something like 'and right here I'd say something about what Rodney does with the Ancient doohickey', and eventually I get going on it. Whatever gets me through, you know?
I'm just kind of breathing deeply through the job thing. *nod* Which is all you can do. I'm crossing my fingers for you. :)
And you're welcome. I know it's always a struggle for me to not get down on myself, and sometimes I just need a reminder to sit back and go "hey! relax! you've got this, 'k?" Which you totally do. (Because you're awesome.)
*hugs* Thank you! I felt lousy yesterday so I basically just slept all day long. And then watched some tv. But today has gone much better - and I did get an offer that I would take, but of course I countered because that's what you're supposed to do? So I have some anxiety about that, but I'll get a phone call tomorrow and then everything will be fine, I am sure of it.
