Okay... I've been holding back, but I'm now going to say it. I feel AWFUL.
I've actually been feeling awful for the last month. I feel unloved, undeserving, and inadequate. My husband left me alone for my entire birthday last Saturday (minus a two-hour dinner with friends he already had planned). No flowers and no card, either. Then he had me choose a wood file cabinet from a website (my b-day gift) but left me to order it myself. It took two conversations and many tears for him to finally realize what a shit he was.

My father also forgot to call me, which had me worried for a moment. He remembers EVERY year, so I had to track him down via a sister. Luckily he is okay, just busy.

Also my writing partner is being the ROYAL pain in the ass that he typically is. I know him well enough to know he's not giving me the brush-off, but tracking down His Heiness just to schedule a meeting is a feat by itself.

Anyway, so I feel terrible. And that is all.

Love,

Writer.

1. I'm sorry, Writer.
I wish I could help. It totally sucks when the important people in your life treat you badly.

4. When I feel like that
I force myself to sit a moment and count all my blessings. I find real quickly that the blessings far outweigh the things that bother me.

There was a thing my grandmother used to say, which was something like: if everyone you know laid their troubles out on a table, you'd be happy to take yours back.

I've been feeling rotten too.


But you are deserving and more than adequate, so there.
