Scrambling
Sep. 6th, 2012 12:01 pmThis week has been...well, I'll just say, hectic, to begin with. I tried to break up with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
scrottie on Monday, but that just seemed to make me even more miserable, so I called and talked to him that evening about stuff. That was a pretty horrible experiment that I won't be repeating. We've been getting into a bad cycle of writing things to each other that I think we both wind up misinterpreting - or, at least, I can say - I hit points where I start thinking in terms of ultimatums, which isn't helpful at all for anyone. But we all already know that long-distance relationships are hard. Let's all keep doing our best to be supportive of each other, eh?
Other than that, I have a big pile of stuff on my desk at home that needs to get put in boxes and sent off to different people. It's been just about all that I can manage just to make sure I eat this week, what with all of the crew activities and with the current experiment I'm running. I'm just trying to take it all one day at a time, while also trying to not leave too huge a pile of dirty dishes in the sink.
Do any of you have thoughts on good things to do to ease the difficulty of being far away from loved ones? I struggle a lot with my own perfectionistic tendencies, with wanting to do and be more than one person can do and be, with balancing out who I am as a person in groups of people relative to who I am when by myself.
