Deflated

Today at Support for Special Needs:
Excerpt: 
Today, I’m tired of the walking. I’m tired of screwing up, and I’m tired of other people treating Schuyler like a cute little pet who might pee on the carpet, rather than a complicated and nuanced human being. My weapon is a rubber sword today, and it feels especially ineffective. I’m just going to sit for a while and see what happens. I wish I had something in my tank, and I’m sure I will tomorrow. But not today. Sorry.

Don't let the fuckers get you down. My father made this statement when I was about fourteen years old. I find it helpful to keep in mind from time to time. Keep your head up, rest your feet for a moment, and then get up and start swinging again.
