Everything seems to be going well at work. I’m getting lots of “Jillian is our star!” and “God, we’re so happy that you’re here!” This is gratifying, but also a little nervous-making. I’m not being disingenuous when I say that I’m not all that. I’m really not. I guess everything is relative, and the Redbook gals haven’t had an internet-savvy person on their side before. But really, I can name plenty of other people who could do as well or better than I do. But I feel a little bit like all I could do is disappoint them at this point.
BUT, while I will admit my cares to my trusty journal, I will sweep into my office tomorrow wreathed in confidence. And I will fake fake fake it. And they will love me.

Don’t run when you’re not being chased, that’s what I say.

I remember many years ago threatening to call you every time I was freaking out. You said I could. I should take advantage of that.

I am, as ever, at your service.
Unless you’re freaking out about tarantula spiders. In that case, I’m no help. They freak me out, too.
