I would like to thank the world for falling apart. I don't need thanksgiving - I watch the news and all I can do is just appreciate where I am more and more. I am glad I bought a house when I did. I'm glad I kept living so far beneath my means. I'm glad I invested when I did (and sold when I did). I'm so glad I work for the modest boring reliable friggin government. I'm glad I worked hard and made decisions to move ahead in my career. I'm glad I kept THIS job (though my resume is still circulating among a few great opportunities). I'm glad at this job I have some idea what I'm doing (maybe I'm even glad I did law school AND the bar), that I often get the "fever" and really enjoy what I'm doing and wonder why they pay me for it, that my boss says thanks _again_, that I can work from Murky sometimes, that I can take gym breaks and work long days to make up for it, that I can report to work in sneakers and wash n' wear clothes, and that I get to travel around while ordering people around like i was important. I'm glad I sold that other place and have some liquidity during these over-hyped times of uncertainty. I'm glad my navel looks like this Hello navel! *waves* I'm glad my skin got this thick. I'm glad I've learned this much patience and how to distance myself from people and things I can't change without ruining my own life and health. I'm glad I worked out all that time so I can do the physical things I can today. I'm glad I didn't eat/drink all that other stuff so I jiggle less when doing that physical stuff. I'm glad I did eat that stuff I did because it was yummy and made me come just a little each time. I'm glad I spent all that time with my friends. I'm glad we took those pictures. I'm glad I read those things. I'm glad I have friends who put up with my shit, and glad I have friends who don't let me get away with TOO MUCH shit. I'm glad Janna likes me back.

It's my personal thanksgiving today. Thank random, thank me, thank those who advised me, thank whatever that I did to get what I enjoy right now. I feel both lucky and like I deserve some of these things I worked for. Hope it lasts.

So adorable. If I may say.

I'm glad you like me.

Gotta have these breaks to really break through the lows and make it sting the way constant pain just can't reach! It takes hope to crush a man...

Do you have some sort of law job related to the government that isn't necessarily overworked and underpayed and kind of flexible? That's impressive...
