I have zero idea where this week has gone. Like, it happened but I'm honestly not sure what I've done at all. So, that's a thing, I guess. I hope you all are doing better than I am and I wish so many good things to one and all.

This post is for:
• being excited about the things you've done this week
• asking for help if you need it
• venting about anything that might need to be flailed over.
• showing off something cool you've done/made/experienced this week.
• being generally enthused and excited about things that have happened.
• just being thrilled that you survived.

Come drop into the comments and let us know how you're doing and how things have gone. While I may not respond to every comment myself, all of you are free to respond to each other and get encouragement, help or whatever else it is you need. If you want to vent without advice being given, please say so and if you want cheering or tips or anything, let us know that too.

I do ask that if you have any triggering topics, that you mention them in the subject line or first line of your comment. This is just so people can make informed decisions on what to read and keep everyone okay. <3 Thank you so much.

This week has been kinda not a week for me too. I went on a date. That feels like literally the only thing that "happened." I have accomplished jack and squat other than to just sorta tread water, it feels like.

I asked for a refund and got it, and I did a bunch of account-cleanup stuff in lastpass. But I'm having such a hard time with Friday that I forgot to wear jeans to work and didn't notice I was in my dress trousers until lunch. XD

The instruction book that came with my planner emphasizes the importance of writing *something* in for every day and it's really helpful. I don't always have a LOT but when I was feeling like I hadn't done anything but be a black hole during February I was able to look back and see that wasn't true.

I have a "five-year diary" that does something similar for me--I can look at a quick summary of what I've done not only every day, but also on the same day last year.

This week I wrote and turned in my 8,000-word writing assignment that was due today. I am so looking forward to celebrating this weekend by goofing off!

Okay ...

I auditioned for a play and didn't get in. This means a 6 month long break from doing theater - which I'd done back to back to exhausting back for five years straight to distract myself from sad events. I am scared of where my brain takes me now that I can't keep it full, and I'm scared of being alone now that people aren't required to see me by imposed schedule.

To counterbalance it, I am ridiculously high on mutual NRE. (Alas, with someone geographically distant, wholly text-based and logistically constrained, so the joy of being loved does little to aleviate the localized isolation, but only makes it easier to bear.)

I've been sick all week, but I got work done and posted the exchange story that was due yesterday.

But also -- Guardian fandom is a happy happening place and I've been reading and commenting, and it's been my happy place all week even when I felt bad.
