I think this is very much related to today.

I don&#039;t want to have to be mollycoddling anyone and having to do all that additional labour. I think the discussion framework I would like to ideally have is, here are all the messy human emotions I am potentially going to have, and all I ask is that you nod and agree that I&#039;m having them, and <i>let me get through it</i>, because I will, I&#039;m an adult. And I&#039;m also capable of holding multiple truths in my head at once: that you&#039;re busy and need to do something; that I&#039;m sad you won&#039;t be around; and that you&#039;ll be back when you can.

Also I need a haircut, stat. But I could also use some reassurance that I wasn&#039;t being totally stupid this week, more details in reply.
