today was a lot

i had to go up front because my coworker called off and i’m the sub

our computer system did not work, so i just watched all my work pile up while I could do none of it

talked to a lady for 45 minutes about her husband being in custody for two months for no reason who then suddenly burst into tears because her dad died yesterday, a man turned himself in and stared into me like i was The Void and had an ‘i’m an alcoholic’ epiphany, and then a supervisor from another office called and responded to my generic greeting with ‘what’s up, good-lookin’?’ 

at which point I was just blue screening in my brain

and then i went to therapy, because why not at that point
