For the past couple weeks, I\u2019ve been irritable and touchy. I don\u2019t know whether it has anything to do with the impending anniversary of my father\u2019s death (three weeks from now); usually my lack of coping around this time of year doesn\u2019t start until closer to the anniversary. It\u2019s possible that the Lexapro is getting less effective. It\u2019s possible that I don\u2019t do so well with extended periods of no sunshine. But regardless, I think that having some social downtime will be good for me.<\/p>\r\n
I ordered a bunch of Chinese food for dinner tonight\u2014intentionally got enough to last me a couple days. Don\u2019t think there\u2019s anything I need to leave the house for until Tuesday. I\u2019ve got books to read (the one I\u2019m furthest along in is deeply unpleasant, but I\u2019m barely skimming it at this point, so I\u2019ll get it out of the way soon and can move on to others I like better), TV and movies to watch (not loving the series I\u2019m halfway through, but only a couple more hours left in that season), photos to label (if I focus this weekend, I might be able to finish labeling the 500+ photos from Mary Anne and Kevin\u2019s anniversary party), day-job stuff to do (am way behind on all sorts of things, hoping to make some progress on some of them), Writing the Other\/Worldbuilding class stuff to catch up on, general house cleanup to work on, etc. Lots to keep me busy.<\/p>\r\n
Oh, and a Constellation Press project\u2019s contract has been resolved, so I hope to make some progress on that too. Not ready to announce it yet, but soon, I hope.<\/p>\r\n
I\u2019ve been trying to keep my Facebook time limited, with mixed success. When I\u2019m feeling restless and unfocused, it\u2019s easy to stop by there, but I think I\u2019ll be better off if I can stay mostly away this weekend. But I may not manage that, and even if I do, I\u2019m sure I\u2019ll be back soon.<\/p>\r\n
No advice, please.<\/p>\r\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-17609","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-life-updates"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17609","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17609"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17609\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17610,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17609\/revisions\/17610"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17609"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17609"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17609"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
