no, really

While still having all these crises of place and time, trying to figure out if I’m in the right place, if I’m working hard enough, if I’m playing the game right, if it’s worth the stress… right before I go to bed, I:
* figure out what that text-to-form-field-thingy is called (edit-in-place)
* get IMd from a close friend just saying “you ever stop to think how exciting life is?”

The second one is what got to me.

I do stop and think how exciting life is. A lot, lately, as a matter of fact. I am in a fantastic place in my life where I have what I need, I have a healthy and supportive family, a wonderful partner, a challenging job with people who support and encourage me, and a fascinating professional circle that inspires me continually. What more could I ask for?

Sure, things look 5h1t from time to time during the day, but as the boss says “life’s too short.” There is so much good going on around me, that the little bad, no matter how continuous or frustrating can be out-shined, Carebear style.
