This is what it’s like to be a psychotherapists’ kid.
Today was a bad day. Not terrible, horrible, no-good, very bad day, but a slightly bad day.
Like no rainbows.
None of these bad things are that bad. But if they make me grouchy, and they do, then I get to consider them bad, even if they’re “just” First World Problems.
So we try to look on the bright side. But it’s okay if they’re just annoyances I get over, too.
| Bad: | Good: |
| Phone’s off button doesn’t work; Apple won’t fix bc it’s out of warranty | Decrease reliance on phone as camera (lazy) |
| A favorite co-worker is leaving | I get her office. A better one could come along. I still have a friend. |
| Aspen flight sold out too fast | I get to do more fun stuff in OC and save $$ |
| Felt like outfit was ugly | Got lots of compliments |
| Foot hurts | Psychological work to be done to heal |
| Painful zit on forehead | Damn that sucks. |
