Struggling

Comments Off on Struggling

Some days it’s a struggle. I knew when I decided not to take compassionate leave from University that I’d find some days hard. And I do.

Today was one of them. I guess I didn’t really get a chance to deal with the emotions from my visit to my mum’s house, and seeing my mum with the stress and excitement of Brian’s visit. So now that Brian’s gone, and my partner Trey isn’t here, well… it’s not so bad now. But a few hours ago, when I got to university I was on the verge of walking out and cycling straight back home.

Then; when I found out the lecture was group work (as I sat there) I seriously considered leaving. I just wasn’t convinced I could deal with it. But I decided to give it a shot. And… yeah. I did it, which I’m proud of. I know what I really need is a break. I keep staring at the calendar and wishing it was Alaska trip time. But…

….I’ve got lots of work to do first.

But I just don’t feel up to it today.

Not helped by a decision to watch the first two episodes of BSG Series II; Epsiodes 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 have arrived. So of course, I thought I should check that it was okay. Disks get damaged in transit and all that. So yeah. Watched episode 1. Fought with concience. Went to post office and dry cleaners. Came back. Watched episode 2. Now utterly desperate for the rest of the series. Damnit. It looks really bloody good.

Kate's allegedly a human (although increasingly right-wing bigots would say otherwise). She's definitely not a vampire, despite what some other people claim. She's also mostly built out of spite and overcoming oppositional-sexism, racism, and other random bullshit. So she's either a human or a lizard in disguise sent to destroy all of humanity. Either way, she's here to reassure that it's all fine.
