back to work </3

today was my first day back to work after a week and a half long medical leave for a fucked up ankle. i got my updated work restrictions from the doctor yesterday which said not to work more than 4 hours a day until my ankle is 100% better and GUESS how many hours i worked today lol. 8 hours! apparently they couldn't adjust my schedule in time so um fuck me i guess. whatever though i mean i need the hours because i haven't been getting paid for the time i haven't been working. my next several days are supposed to be way easier so theres that to look forward to at least.

besides that... my day would've kinda sucked anyway because i had a nightmare last night and ended up getting less than 5 hours of sleep. it's crazy because i don't think i had a single nightmare the entire time i was on leave and then the instant i have to go back to work this happens. like i think i'm getting better at managing work-related stress and anxiety but i think  this incident just goes to show how hard this job actually is on me lmao. i hope my next job doesn't require me to get up early every day because honestly thats maybe the overall worst part of my current job for me.
