Sometimes...

[batskeets]

It's funny how you can go from being okay one day, to being, well, "not-so-okay" the next. Today started off on the wrong foot, and the rest of the day wore me down a lot more than I expected. Now I'm finding myself in somber spirits, even after having a whole damned lot of fun at the JoCo show this evening.

It's times like this when you find yourself painting parts of your room at 1:30am. You're tired, yet somehow still antsy, searching for somewhere to direct the energy. The repetitive motion of putting paint roller to wall *was* strangely soothing. And now I'm that much closer to having a space I'll enjoy living in.

I think I have hormones to thank for some of the emo today, so hopefully it'll have blown over when I wake up in the morning. If it doesn't, I guess I'll look for another solution.

Man, do I know what you mean; yesterday was a downer for me, too. I accused Mike of being "Typhoid Emo" (Because Emo Mary didn't quite convey what I wanted) then realized that he'd have to -not- feel the emo, but only carry the emo to other people, in order to be Typhoid Emo.

It was funnier last night. ;P

You've got a lot going on, chica. You're working yourself super hard, and don't have a lot of downtime for yourself right now. You're a driven lady, but I also think (like a lot of us) you forget to give yourself a little TLC once in a while. Making that room into a sanctuary is going to be a big step towards it, and while new paint likely won't fix anything, it will hopefully provide a fresh perspective.

(I redecorated my bedroom after the divorce, too. It seems the thing to do, like drastically cutting your hair... which I also did after the divorce. These are comfort patterns for a reason, methinks.)

*hugs tight* Yah, emo from one day to the next, or even one moment to the next? Totally happens. *hugs tighter* If there's anything I can do, let me know. We could try to grab coffee sometime this week, if you have a spare squeezed hour somewhere.

Yeah, last week was the worst in quite a while, in terms of being busy. :/ And the various rifts in communication haven't helped on the business front, but we're slogging through them, at least.

This week looks *much* better, so we should snag coffee! Or maybe watch Buffy. Or both ;) It's always good seeing you. ::hugs::
