Except for the really harsh hand-coding, I have finished uploading through August of 2007. The vast majority of the uploading from now on will be automated from the GJ/IJ mirrors.

Jesus christ, I need a drink.

As it turns out, uploading the more recent history is way more traumatic than the old stuff, even being miserable in Texas in 2006, because my memories of it are so much clearer and you guys? How did I not realise how incredibly miserable I was at the box office last year? I mean I know I didn't have a gold standard to compare it to, but seriously. Many terrible things have happened in 2008 but at least I don't work for a fucking nutbar anymore. As much as I liked my coworkers...fucking nutbar.

Dear BossBoss: I love my job and I am grateful you think I am competent and I will burn you a Torchwood DVD set and I want you never to fire me. Yrs, Sam.

Well, I agree with Judy: very often, people don't realise how miserable they are at the time because if they did, they may not be able to handle it. And they need to go on, get up and do their stuff every morning so they really can't afford to focus on the Miserable.

Also, 1) we're all way stronger than we think we are, and I truly believe that. We only realise it when we look back on times where we were deeply, deeply miserable, and then we go, wow, I actually survived that? I ... am not sure if this should makes us feel better or very, very afraid *g* And 2) don't forget that you often use your journal to VENT. So many, many of your darkest moments are here. Reliving them has got to be hard, but also highlights how well you did through them, and how much better off you are today.

You did extremely well, considering. *hugs*
