Oct. 17th, 2017 09:28 pmWell, I'm still kind of a wreck. Slowly trying to get over it. Trying to stop being mad and wanting revenge. Helpless anger is a painful thing. I don't want assholes to control how I feel every day. "Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering." You betcha. I don't think about it all the time, but today the Sparrowhawk had another talk with HR, gave them his separation date, and got a contract, which he dropped off at the lawyer's office to be checked over. he said it made him feel sad. Also, he has to get Evil Boss to sign it once he decides it's okay. I got my hair cut, and it's tiring. It takes two hours, and it's all conversation! It's better than the dentist, though. I love my hair stylist. She is a great person and says she'd tag-team Evil Boss with me. But I would never do that. I'm non-violent. Anger leads to etc. etc. And attachment to anger is suffering even if you don't do anything about it.
One cool thing the Sparrowhawk gleaned from his parting hours was a so-called "leadership conference," which is a complete crock as far as I'm concerned, but which had, as a highlight, a speech by Mae Jemison! He said she mostly talked about the 100 Year Starship project. So that was a nice thing.
Tomorrow, I'm taking my mother to the doctor to give the Duchess a break. She did the hearing aid run on Monday, so I'm doing the PCP visit. My aspiration is to get home before rush hour/dark. Wouldn't that be nice! We'll see how it works out. I was going to make cookies, but did not have the spoons. I'm taking her a package of peanut butter crackers, a new Jan Caron book, and some stamps.
