This tax law stuff is hard.

Total immersion would be my style. Like throw yourself into it and do absolutely nothing else for 48 hours.

Except I think that's psychologically and physically unhealthy, so at a certain point in the afternoon—earlier & earlier now that the dark is creeping in earlier & earlier—I break to exercise.

And after I come back from exercising, it's extremely difficult to get my mind back into work mode.

Hence, I am behind schedule on the tax law stuff.

Not hopelessly behind. But enough behind so that it seems like my time is never my own.

Apart from that.

Adrienne got snippy with me yesterday because apparently I am not updating the Shawangunk Dems website quickly enough. If you can't do it, I'll find someone else...

Good luck with that, girlfriend!

I only volunteered to do it because no one else would. The website is hosted on Squarespace, a GUI template site, which I didn't know at all and so had to teach myself. And the person who had been doing the site disappeared more than a year ago, so there was nobody to onboard me plus it hadn't been updated in over a year.

I did briefly contemplate telling Adrienne, Go fuck yourself, beyatch, but didn't. She's under stress. I think some part of her knows she's not gonna win this campaign she's invested so much time & energy into. I mean, maybe she will! I've been wrong before. But my gut is saying, No.

Plus basically, I like Adrienne.

So, I did a little shit & Shinola dance, remarking mildly, Well, Adrienne, it's a lot of work, and you can't see the backend where most of the work is going on.

I must be as kind to and tolerant of others as I would have them be kind to and tolerant of me-ee-eee!

I also have that instinct where I’m like, “I’m not allowed to be a Real Human Girl until I get All The Things done” and get snippy about distractions. No, it’s probably not healthy and I’m constantly trying to retrain my brain to focus without freaking out.

Kudos for your self-restraint! And I'm here from the future to tell you that you do all right on your tax midterms--you get an 86--very solid.
