I'm calling in sick on Friday.
A mental health day is in order. I took a mid-year survey for the organization that placed me here. On it there were some questions along the lines of, "I know where I can go to get mental help if I need it," and, "I would seek mental help if I needed it." I checked disagree. Sure, at orientation they handed us a sheet listing psychologists, but none of them are really near us. I don't have the time to drive to find someone hours away.
After feeling personally attacked for the past week, my prescription for myself is to spend time with people who know me well and who will build me up. There are people here encouraging me, but we just lack the shared history for them to get me where I need to be.

Mmmmmm. Grapefruit. My supply got restocked while I was visiting people this weekend (shamelessly taking advantage of the Florida connections).
Silly internet connection not working for you. Bah. And, as always, lots of hugs and love back to you.
