...and i wondered if...

Today was not nearly as hard as I thought it would be. There was only minor awkwardness, and most of my discomfort was chiefly a result of my own stress, pre-emptively.

With the boy, I don't know. Things are still shaky. Not that he's on thin ice, exactly, but that I am aware and my eyes are wide awake. The first sign of trouble, I'm gone. For the moment, it's just play by ear, see how it goes. Hoping it continues to go.

NXNE is done. I am as exhausted as I look. I need much sleep and water and advil, to get me through this week of assignments and work and school and issues. I also need people to be more accessible than they have been of late. I need people to have phones that work please, and emails they answer. Okay?
