Now Playing Tracks

So since I was feeling marginally better, I went to work.

It was okay.

I got a hug from a little girl with long dark hair wearing a purple sweater dress and purple sequin boots after she helped me bag.

And then on my break I get a text from my dad.

Foxxy, our youngest, three year old cat, was hit by a car and killed. She’d been missing since Friday, and Mom found her this afternoon by the fence opposite our house.

I bawled my eyes out, went to my parent’s house, cried more, hugged the older cats and chatted with my parents until I felt better.

Sometimes I just wish I could curl up and just… watch the world go by, without having to participate. Today seems to be one of those days. I want to curl up with my cats and my laptop, and just ignore all the responsibilities I have outside.

And I have to remind myself, near constantly right now, that Ineedto go. I need to move. And it’s so hard that I want to cry and scream. But I’m going to do force myself to anyway. Because that’s what I’ve been told to do, as an adult.

I hate it. I just want to be left alone. But I can’t be, because I’ll get worse, and I’ll fade away, and I’ll die if I do that.
