Breakthrough

This was quite a week for me and Amy. Bad thing happened; very good thing happened; now she's out of town and I guess we get to process things on our own for a few days. I wish she were here, or I wish I were there.

In the meantime I'm left here with my cat and my violent movies, and the belief that some aspects of everyday life are like taking a dump: It's not something you like doing, but it's got to get done, so there's no real sense in getting all depressed about it and letting it overshadow the rest of your day--just go where you need to go, do what you need to do while you're there, and leave when it's finished. Compartmentalize.
