It may come as a surprise to some of you, but I am a bit of an introvert. I get pretty severe anxiety at the thought of being in giant crowds, and even when I go out with friends, it\u2019s pretty rare that I don\u2019t have some sort of exit plan. I\u2019ve been known to have \u201cshut down\u201d moments, where I just\u2026hit a wall and need to leave immediately – it has nothing to do with the company I\u2019m with but with my own capacity. <\/p>\n

This post\/link I read a few months back explains the feeling really well<\/a> (and also why I woke up this morning with what felt like a massive hangover, despite having less than one beer after everything yesterday). <\/p>\n

All that is to explain why there was no way I was going to Washington. But I did force myself, even against my natural inclinations, to get out to the march for women\u2019s rights in NY. Because it was just too important. <\/p>\n
