fancytalkRTL called again. This time freaking out after the "formal' conversation with the big cheese.
Emphasis on the freaking out part.
Let me draw an image to help you understand - You know when you go to the fair and ride the super loop or the pirate ship or a roller coaster or maybe all three in a row, the feeling that screaming makes the butterflies in your tummy go away as you go around or down. However, you already knew this when you got on the ride and you really know it when the ride hovers right at the point before it falls.
So talking to RTL is kind of like that, but I don't think she expected the ride to be scary so she's surprised at the need to scream. If you've ever ridden the Cyclone at Coney Island, you know exactly what I mean. I could hear the "wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee" in her voice as she was trying to give me details of the conversation.
Of course the couple of friends that she works with (and would share this info with at work) told her that considering our current situation, it sounded like a perfect opportunity.
Which only made the "wheeeeeeeeeeee" sound worse.
Insert into the picture cool, calm, grounded me who has just realized that I can't be the one freaking out right now. Although, I think part of me wants to, but the rest of me just shakes my head and says "do you remember that conversation a few weeks ago?"
I think RTL wanted me to freak out and be rattled with her. I just keep telling her that things will work out the way they are suppose to and just relax.
And she questions whether we will know whether it's right or not. Now I shake my head and think "resistance is futile."
Faith and Trust.
