I am Tired, Hurt and Angry.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

And cannot stand being at work today.

What should I do?

Any Ideas?

1. Go home sick...

[rainy]

2. put one foot in front of the other and go through the motions

keeping busy is better than going home to wallow. Stay busy until you feel better.

17. I got a very depressed pm...

from a friend overnight and mostly I'm sitting here worrying about him.

I'm also just really tired. Didn't get enough sleep this weekend, was up late doing stuff for the local Dem party last night. I'm gonna be up late tonight registering voters. Then tomorrow I'll be up late for the debate watching party. I'm tired and probably not gonna get much sleep until Wednesday and that's making me a little cranky.

But mostly it's my friend. He's 2000 miles away and there's not a damn thing I can do to help make sure he's alright.

[plcdude]

18. well

if there is anything I can do, odn't hesitate to ask me okay?

[VelmaD]

20. Thanks for the offer...

:hug:

I'm not sure there's anything anyone can do (other than figure out a way for me to fit 8 extra hours of sleep into the next couple of days).

I'll be fine. I'm going to let the situation with my friend go for a little bit if I can. Either he'll talk to me or he won't...can't force him to. Either he'll get better or he won't...can't really do much about that from here either.

I figure once I get off work and get out to the site where I'm registering voters tonight that my mood will improve. :)

13. Pri..

Is there any place at work, you can take a 20 minute nap or do those frat boys not know that any workplace in NY with more than 50 employees must have a couch in the ladies room? If you want a snooze at my office, send me a PM. I'll have a visitor pass waiting for you.
