The Right Words

The worst part of work isn't the hours, or the management, or the co-workers, or even the wages.
The worst part of work is that it completely exhausts my ability to fake it - you know, being less-than-miserable. I get home and it isn't the exhaustion that does me in, but the aching desire not to have to put up with anything, from anyone at all. I seem to remember having more of this ability, earlier on. I suppose faking a smile comes a little harder when you can't really combat the darkness inside anymore.


Because it Bears Repeating

"Why aren't you interested?"

"It isn't that I'm not interested, just that if I get involved, I'll have to deal with you leaving."

"I won't leave, I'd never do that!"
