Today I confess...
...I am legitimately worried that I will seriously injure myself on Saturday. I mean, it's going to suck to do this race anyway because of the running and the obstacle course, and the sun that gets insanely hot at insanely early times... But apart from that, my body is just a general mess, and I tend to get injured pretty easily when I'm not exerting myself or going through a bunch of obstacles. Fingers crossed, people.
...it's been one of those days where literally everything is bothering me. I have been powering through work stuff all day, but still don't feel like I've gotten anything done, my house is still a mess (or way more of a mess than I'd like it to be), my to-do list is a mile long, and my anxiety is through the roof. Today I wished more than once that I actually took medication for anxiety, because every once in a while (like today), it comes swooping in like a freaking freight train, and completely takes over my brain.
...I have discovered a couple of bloggers lately who, while I really don't care too much for what they have to say, I find strangely fascinating. It's a weird thing for me to be completely uninterested in someone, and yet so completely interested at the same time. The only way I can explain it is that it's sort of like a car crash - the kind where you don't know anyone, so it doesn't affect you at all, but still, you can't look away. And even that isn't quite right. Either way, it's just weird.
...sometimes having a really good understanding of spelling/grammar is frustrating, because it's annoying when people get it wrong.. Especially the really simple stuff that EVERYONE should know....which happens ALL THE FREAKING TIME. I'm not saying that in an "oh look at me I'm so smart" way, but more in like a "seriously people, get it together and be better than this".
...I really hate Times New Roman or Comic Sans fonts. I know resumes are "technically" supposed to be written in TNR font, but I just can't bring myself to do it because I think it's really ugly.
...my desk is a complete and total disaster right now. I can't work well in chaos, so I know that it's probably having at least a tiny impact on my productivity, but it seems like no matter what I do right now, I can't get it organized to save my life. I don't know what's wrong with me. Other than the aforementioned Stage 5 Clinger anxiety I've got going on.
...I really can't think of anything else right now. My brain is fried, and all I want to do is go to bed and sleep and forget about stress and work and most of life in general for like, a whole solid week just so I can reset myself. First class passenger on the struggle bus, right here.

So many of these. I hattttte Times new roman and even more so Comic Sans. It needs to stop!!! lol I have some of those blogs that I read too actually.
ReplyDeleteAlso my apt is a complete mess and because I have sooo much work to do I havent gotten to it. Ah well.
i think my biggest pet peeve is when i see grammar errors in the blog titles. like what!? try a littttttle harder please.
ReplyDeletelol @ the hair is so big. i hate grammar and spelling errors, though i am sure i make them! i hate TNR unless it is in a resume, haha. also, definitely understand the car crash blogs!
ReplyDeleteHaha!! Im def. not the grammar police however, certain things like to and too should be used properly! Just sayin lol!
ReplyDeleteLisa,xo
I hate when I go back and look at my blog posts and see grammatical errors. I should edit better!
ReplyDeleteGAH as someone who edits for a living, I just die whenever people just ignore simple grammatical rules. It's SO obvious when people just don't read over their work too. #grammarpoliceproblems.
ReplyDeleteThere are definitely some blogs out there I read out of fascination more than real interest. Lurking only, of course!
ReplyDeleteCan I just say I agree with you on reading some blogs I'm not yet strangely very interested in....it's a weird love/hate relationship lol
ReplyDeleteComic Sans in the WORST!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way about certain blogs, too!
You got this! You're going to rock that race! I much prefer Ariel to TNR. Unless it was required on college essays I always used Ariel.
ReplyDeleteOk, I am all about the train-wreck bloggers right now. For real, can they just keep writing so I can watch with popcorn over here? I don't even want to really judge them, I just want to see what happens!
ReplyDeleteHope today has been better for you :)
ReplyDeleteGirl it sounds like today is just one of those days... I just saw your Twitter and I hope you recoup soon. Make a list of what you need to do; list it more important to least important and tackle it one step at a time. Take a deep breath and do one step at a time. You will get everything done.
