another day in the doldrums

Posted by partlycloudy on October 8, 2004, at 10:23:54

i think i understand what the absence of the winds that push us along are. i took the day off from work. absolutely unheard of. found a doctor on my insurance plan to get a second opinion as to my saga. held out on taking a xanax until11am, small victories. don't feel anywhere near as bad when i stay shuttered up at home. outside it's dry, warm, and breezy. i might make it outside but don't care one way or the other right now.
lonely but i feel so depressed i can't even imagine wanting a drink. another victory, what an amazing day.
my hair is lanky, my armpits stink, my legs are full of stubble, and my husband loves me.
see? am I down? am I up? i don't even know myself, I can't write anything down except for here on babble. given a blank sheet of paper it peers up at me, daring me to soil its surface with ink. i'm not worthy of doing even that.

Are you missing the "excitement" of the stormy weather? As bad as those days of preparing for the worse are, they at least give us a purpose - and a purpose that can't wait.

I know when I go through it, I feel let down when it's all over. Like it's anticlimactic.

I know what you mean about doldrums. That feeling of blah. Ick.

Best (only) advice I can offer to this one is to just ride it out. And rattle the docs' cages.

Here's hope for a good weekend.
