A Rough Day At Work

Posted on

It started with seeing one of my good friends and favorite coworkers get electrocuted less than 6 inches from me. Worse still, he got electrocuted doing what I was going to do before I said “I don’t know, I don’t want to get shocked.”  To be specific, he just hit the reset button on an outlet and BANG.  It was horrifying.  He’s now at the local trauma hospital’s burn unit.

Meanwhile my work had a bomb scare. Unrelated, but occurring simultaneously.  I just wish I could cuddle with someone and fall asleep safe.  It’s been a tough week. I also had a murder outside my house on Saturday my life has been filled from dawn til dusk.

On the plus side- I discovered I can take on a lot more stress than I thought I could, and thrive on it. I haven’t felt this secure since I was about 17. It might be a little late, but things are finally coming together for me personally, even as the world around me falls apart.

That’s not to say I’m not up late because of stress and the glass of wine next to me certainly isn’t for show, but overall- I’m doing well. Someone or something is looking out for me.
