8/30

i'm thankful, since i hate to break a chain, even if i'm only barely holding on to it, that i realized earlier this evening that i had forgotten to send a note this morning, that i opened my computer two hours before work intending to, but after i just looked at the bug i was trying to fix for five minutes, and then a half hour passed and it felt too late to go running, i had the opportunity but i didn't take it and i let myself get pulled back under, only emerging to breath at 9:23, a few minutes before i work day was supposed to start, and the day was long and intense and i felt despair at all the things to do, but then at a certain point at the end of the day, i realized that there was going to be a point where i had to stop and then i would be stopped and then i would be on vacation and i'm thankful that the moment ended up being just a few minutes later i'm thankful for the moment, and what has come after.
