“I don’t hold with paddlin’ with the occult,’ said Granny firmly. ‘Once you start paddlin’ with the occult you start believing in spirits, and when you start believing in spirits you start believing in demons, and then before you know where you are you’re believing in gods. And then you’re in trouble.’

‘But all them things exist,’ said Nanny Ogg.

‘That’s no call to go around believing in them. It only encourages ‘em.’”

- Terry Pratchett - Lords and Ladies

Got offered the job I applied for which is a Good Thing™ (yay) but now my brain is revolting against me and telling me to panic :(

Objectively I’m very happy, it just isn’t manifesting as joy.

Knock it off, brain! If it consoles you, I had the very same thing happening to me (I’m sure you’ve noticed)- it’ll be alright eventually. Just breathe, have a tea, do some things that make you happy to distract you. It’ll all be fine.

And most of all: CONGRATULATIONS! :D

@sweetlittlevampire thank you for your support, dear <3 I know these feelings are stupid and unproductive, and I’m doing my best to smother them in positive thinking. I just hate that I’ve accepted a few lessons which are not going to happen now. Couldn’t really have refused as long as I didn’t have a job offer, but it still feels like I’m letting people down. Also: old and new contract dates also overlap by a day which the new employer said was fine but which my scumbag brain is using against me to full effect X)
