when things seem dire
2 years ago
they usually ARE! but even when you want to “drink warm gin out of the cat’s bowl” (to paraphrase ann lamott) or get hysterical about your pain, frustration, leaking roof, unpaid bills, broken tooth, problems with THEY KNOW WHO THEY ARE, etc. well i forget how that sentence was going to end, but i think happily, something about faith over fear and a note to self to be less frantic. (frantic is such a pretty little word for the truth of it—see paranoid&obsessiveauthors.com.) JK
