Testimony

Evidence without story

My mood is pleasant! I’m debating the exclamation point but have chosen to keep it to mark the joy of the contrast of pleasant compared to the vague misery that has been plaguing me for the prior several weeks.

My neck is very stiff, particularly on the right side. My body is tense - my spine; my shoulders. This is notably far more extreme than normal. The discomfort ranks just below pain.

I’m anxious about schoolwork, particularly my seminar professor. I’m anxious about my DNP project.

When my coworker knocked on my car’s passenger window unexpectedly, I jumped with such theatrics that she got scared in return and we both found ourselves apologizing to each other.

I had a very hard time focusing at work.

I’m somewhat overwhelmed by all the must be done in the coming days.

I feel that I have agency over my life and the things that will happen next.

I wish I could take a few responsibilities off my plate for the next while to let my body recover without having to prove why I need rest.

I’m looking forward to moving into my new apartment. I’m looking forward to having a stove and a full fridge.

I’m tired.
