This is hard

here
Writing polite, yet friendly e-mails is hard.

Getting the line right between fun and professional without sounding like a stick in the mud or like you're just going to sit at a desk and gossip all day is feeling really tricky right now.

Is an exclamation mark too young looking? Do I say thanks so much? thank you for your time? or just split the difference with thanks for your time?

Maybe it's just because I got up at 6:30 (okay fine seven), but right now writing three complete sentences if feeling real hard. merg

Right Now

Things are kinda crazy right now.

Crazy in that whole, life is short and confusing and sad and what the heck are you doing kind of way. Yeah it's a big kind of crazy.

So I'm giving myself permission to stay hidden away. To fake sickness and stay at home watching re-runs of "America's Next Top Model" and "New Girl" (j'dore Zooey Deschanel). I'm giving myself space to try some new things and not try and explain it all away to anyone, not even myself. We'll see how it goes.
