i've been up since 3 this morning tossing and turning with a malady i won't name. i prodded into work looking like hell and found my keycard to enter the building wasn't working, and i should have taken that as a sign.
things went downhill from there. i lost things and stumbled, ruined everything i touched, was told i looked awful and worst of all my cute new red wallet broke.
they say this too shall pass and i know it will. tomorrow will be better but in the meantime...
recovering from a bad day is like cleaning up after a storm. it is wearisome. the skies are quiet again but you can see the damage that was done, and you feel devastated by the work in front of you. it tires you just to approach it. but you dig in and sometimes neighbors help and at some point you recognize not that which was normal, because it never will be the same again, but you face and recognize the new normal and try to get some sleep.
maybe it wasn't that bad, my monday, compared to others who have challenges a million times sadder than an expired key card.
but today is today for a few more hours, and it is all mine to consider and decide how to feel about it.
in any case
i guess i am just glad to have another go at it
tomorrow.
