Didn’t post for 3 days, which might be a personal record at this point! Two more weddings happened over the weekend (the groom at the second one gave a toast that ran almost 14 minutes, I actually timed it on my phone under the table), and between that and still not touching my resume, I just stopped noticing the jaw thing completely.
Caught it again today though. 3 times before 11am, which is more than I’d like, but better than just living with a tight jaw all afternoon like last week. Did the stretch each time, sat up straight for a minute or two after, then went right back to scrolling job listings I’m not actually applying to yet.
One application did go out this morning, around 9am before the house woke up. Skipped the walk-outside thing after, just sat there staring at my inbox for a solid 10 minutes like it was going to refresh itself into an offer.
Budget spreadsheet is still open in another tab with three empty rows for wedding costs I still haven’t filled in. Not today’s problem I guess.
Back on the stretch at least. That’s the one thing I’m actually keeping right now.
