Long week

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Man I’m glad it’s Friday. I’ve been working on so many different things this week that I’ve completely lost all track of what day it is, which makes the week seem really, really long! You know, because like Weds night I wasn’t thinking “two more days until the weekend”, I was just getting through Weds and then moving on to Thursday without any thought as to anything past that.

I’ll still be doing quite a bit of work with computers over the weekend, but at least I’ll be able to get some extra sleep and spend some time with Angela. The stuff that usually makes me feel a little less run-down. 🙂

Maybe I’ll even get out of my overly geek mode and be sociable too? I’m sure she’d enjoy that!

Hope you have a good one!

Since I keep reading about most people find jobs through people they know, and since as…

  • When Trauma Response are Helpful – And When They Aren’t.

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 3 minutes

    In the big picture, the thing I know that I need to do is to be aware of when I’m in that mode and act accordingly. There can be some great benefits to hypervigilance and there can be some real downsides. If I’m aware of it, I can scan the environment as necessary without ignoring other important, but not dangerous, bits of information, and watch out for my own overreactions. I can consciously use the skill that I learned as a trauma survivor for my own good without it wrecking my day-to-day life or causing more anxiety.

    It’s a tricky line to walk, and I’ll be the first to admit I don’t always do it so well.

    My Anger Over Roman Polanski

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 2 minutes

    Last night, instead of relaxing and spending a quiet evening watching the latest episode of Ken Burns documentary on America’s National Parks, I sat by the TV with my laptop reading about the people defending Roman Polanski, and getting very angry that anyone would try and defend someone who raped a 13 year old girl….
