today the glitterbomber is... |
2002-04-24 look who's up past her bedtime. yeah, you got it. it's that mad thesis writing glitterbomber. i just turned in another draft, and dammit, i am going to sleep in tomorrow. i am feeling less of a stress case since this morning. i was just feeling so overwhelmed, and i could feel myself starting to slide back into my pre-medicated depression and apathy and all the wonderful feelings that go along with it. it took a lot of will to pull myself out and keep going. i'm glad i did. my life doesn't seem so bad after i head out to do an interview for work. today's interviewee was a homeless, single mother with an abusive ex and two young sons in mental health treatment. i told her that she was a strong woman, and she is. all the women i interview are amazing. they have to deal with very tough circumstances, and they manage to pull through somehow. things really get put into perspective for me sometimes. *** quote of the day: "speak your mind, even if your voice shakes." -bumper sticker i saw today |
