Boss, it's the fascism.

(Literal note in my journal today: "Iโ€™m struggling with short-term memory (which happens when Iโ€™m stressed) and thatโ€™s part of why Iโ€™m keeping the journal.")

@susankayequinn I am struggling with this daily as well. Stress is like this gluey substance you have to wade through in order to get anything done -- and the more stress there is, the glueyer and deeper it gets. 
@woozle seriously, that's a good analogy. Whatever helps to make the glue less sticky or easier to move through is the thing we have to do.
