Stuff going on at work has really put me in a mood. And not the good kind. It being my time of the month doesn't help either.
Since my boss got kicked to the curb, awkwardness is running into me and my co-worker at every corner. It's draining us both, and causing us to be irritable. I'm worried we'll start being irritable with each other. That would definitely mean TPTB have won.
Since I've got so little energy, I feel the need to guard it. I also feel like saying "No" and being grumpy a lot. I sit in meetings with arms crossed, saying little, and coming very near to pouting, and I don't feel like doing work or doing my best. What's doing my best gotten me except paralysis in the midst of office politics? My co-worker feels the same, and we don't know what to do about it except complain to each other about it (talk about enabling!), go to acupuncture, go for walks, and sigh whenever we see each other. None of which (except maybe the walks and the acupuncture) is doing either of us any good. But we're stuck. I hate being stuck.
Unfortunately, my mood has escaped the office and followed me home. I don't feel like doing homework or writing, which has put me behind in my grad school work. I'm supposed to go to a medical writing conference on Saturday for some workshops, and I don't feel like doing that either.
My nutritionist is doing some reiki on me tomorrow morning. Maybe that will make me uncross my arms.
