work and web hearts
HR emailed me yesterday wondering when I planned on returning to work in March.
(Sigh)
The prospect of returning to this job feels abysmal. My job entails talking on the phone to over 120 people a day and giving them instructions on their upcoming eye surgeries. It can feel overwhelming.
Being off work for the last five months with a broken leg has been dire, yet simultaneously a mini vacation from the exasperations of meaningless work.

Watching: I binged S2 of Love on the Spectrum. Dani is so adorable 🦄. Is the Australian version just as good?

Imagine my surprise when I saw that Rachel Kwon pinned one of my blog posts to her pinboard. Whaaaaaat! I just about died of pure happiness <3
Alice from The Wallflower Digest mentioned my tiny blog post Life Breadcrumbs, and I subsequently spent the entire morning going through her delightful blog with my morning coffee.
Reading: The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath. I'm still making my way through this thick volume...I'm a slow reader! 🤓
