“Please slow down.”
-The Internet
Today these words appeared over and over. Maybe...30ish times. Please slow down. You must wait twenty seconds before you reattempt to log in. Please slow down. You must wait three minutes between attempts to change your password. Please slow down.
Why was login impossible on ticketing website I’ve used effortlessly for two years? All I wanted (read needed) to do was to print my ticket sales for the box office manager because...RECITAL WEEK!!! But today: I couldn’t log in. I couldn’t change my password. I couldn’t use my old password. I just wanted the task finished so I could move on to the next item on the to-do list. But all this website would give me today was, “Please slow down.”
Alas, I never did log in. I never did print the ticket sales.
And I never did slow down. (I’m working on it, Universe.)
But. I did I did move to the next task and the next, all the way to dress rehearsal and beyond. I drew many Sharpie lines through many to-dos and to-buys and I had a fabulous rehearsal. So there’s that, and that’s a good lesson too.
Please slow down. You’ve heard it. Maybe not from the internet on a day you will most assuredly NOT slow down. But you’ve heard it.
I hear you, Universe. But I have STUFF TO DO!
So I strive for...
Wait twenty seconds. Wait three minutes. Read a book. Take a bubble bath.
Just not during Recital Week...
Happy 4th Birthday to my princess 👸🏽 😘❤️💕#TurnUp4Tati #GrowingUpSoFast #PleaseSlowDown https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq7YeFwgjrj/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1jb2rygwmoveh
So...has anyone else had a complete emotional breakdown and sob uncontrollably in the shower because of how fucking FAST your child is growing and changing, and the thought of how fast it’ll continue to go is LITERALLY taking all of the breath from your lungs, and your anxiety is threatening to knock you on your ass forever???? Anyone at all? #askingforafriend #PLEASEslowdown https://www.instagram.com/p/BnFlWBpl8S58NE99IWDN6EFk_QXHGzfTHt16ww0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1d50ppjldleg0
