I’m having a bad week.
Monday sucked, but I never really expect anything good to come out of Mondays so I got over it. Then Tuesday sucked, for a different reason, and I was starting to feel a bit worn down but it was still early days.
Then today came along and kicked me in my lady parts but it’s still too early in the week to properly give up on society and commence the moping. No, there are still two more days of work where the best I will manage will be my usual apathy with brief periods of sulk between tasks. It’s irritating that I have to wait until Friday afternoon before I can fully commit to the gloom.
I was hoping for a thunderstorm this evening so that the weather could be truly symbolic of my feelings, but all I got was a strong breeze. It did not meet the minimum catharsis quota.
I don’t know where I’m going with this post, other than to document my whining for future comparison.
Unnng. Weeks like that suck. Months like that are also on par for being crap and annoying. Perhaps having a mental health day is in order. Those can really help break up a crappy week. Oh, and failing that I’ve found switching to vodka instead of water at work also livens things up.
in another note … i posted the last one at 1248, but the comment time says 1148 …. somewhere some machine is very confused about daylights savings time …
Thanks, fixed it, was a timezone issue with WordPress.
Aww, hon… Sending you many hugs from Calgary. I just know things will get better by Friday!
*hugs* Hope you kick the funk soon.
When you’ve got a minute would you please go through the last five or ten years of blog posts and fix some links? For example: http://gunson.ca/blog/archives/2005/12/friday_bat_clog.html
Where is the bat clog post? Also, what are you wearing?
Yeah, that would be a really good use of your time, as opposed to, well, almost anything else.
I read that people in reality shows are typically provided with counselors once the show’s run is done. Apparently being suddenly withdrawn from the fame and attention can cause depression and general stress. Considering your recent brush with conference fame, I wonder if you are having trouble re-integrating with civilians. Perhaps you should embark on a cross country speaking tour. Get the adrenaline flowing.
@Garth Interesting… Yeah, not that I got any fame but I was dealing with a lot of stress and excitement the previous week, and it was weird to just immediately come back to normality where nothing much ever happens. You have a good point. I don’t need to do any more talks, though, since I haven’t even watched that video yet out of fear/embarrassment.
