I'm working on the last set of edits on Aberrant Magic. It's looking good, and after this I have to format it and edit Claimings, and at the same time I'm dealing with a flood of paperwork that's starting to hit for the school year. Next week, meetings start, so now everyone (mostly administration)  is trying to get shit done before the meetings.

Technically I could do this next week, but sitting in the meetings exhausts me more than is reasonable these days. I would rather do it as it hits my email and have time to set up my room next week--at least when I'm not sitting in meetings.

I also got my official blue handicap placard today.  I don't know how I feel about this.  For almost a year I've had red placards showing that I have a medical reason to need handicap parking.  We've tried four different medicines for nerve damage/nerve pain, and it has now officially failed.  So I am now a blue placard--permanently disabled.  I look at it and think I should be happy that I don't have the logistical hassle of getting new doctor recommendations every six months.

But on the other, it feels like giving up and saying this is never going to get better.  And that's weird to complain about because it will never get better.  I'm way better off than most people, but this stupid blue placard has really thrown me for a loop tonight.  I think I'm going to go watch season 13 of Supernatural and ignore this tonight.
