I did something today that I never do, I cried at work. I managed to avoid a complete ugly cry, but tears were definitely shed. I think the combination of work stress, hormone shots, and the beginnings of a cold have cracked me. I think I have lost my mind. I have never felt that crazy in my life.
The worst part about crying at work is that we have an open office plan. It is sort of like really short cubes. I'm pretty sure evryone in my department saw me . Then once I started, I couldn't stop. So I literally sat at my desk most of the afternoon sniffing and blowing my nose, trying to hide the fact that I was crying.
Luckily my boss was really nice about it, which he should have been it was me getting pissed and yelling at him that set off the whole fiasco. He's basically told me that if I need time off, to take it and not worry about work. I just can't let me taking time off to cause us to miss our deadline next week. Fate intervened tonight and one of our servers is getting ready to crash. They have to take it down and move everything to a new server, which means a forced break tonight. While a little relaxation time is nice, it also means more work for tomorrow.
