today.

...the struggle with depression and anxiety is weighing. will it pass? sure. does it suck in the meantime? hell yes. and that's pretty much it for me today.

in other news, because apparently that's not it for me today:
-i got a new bike, i just need to get comfortable on the sucker before i become a cycling maniac.
-i'm going to try to learn some new knitting patterns and actually stick with the process! the creative outlet has not been working with me.
-i was given a quick reminder in how to do some beading and plan to stick with that for awhile. creating pretty things makes me happy.
-apparently i'm kicking ass at work, but i get scared that the depression is going to pull me down. optimism is lacking. i need to work on that.
-i get to see my head doc tomorrow. joy oh joyous joy.
-i'm working on this list specifically to hopefully hurry up the last hour of work.
-i almost broke my neck due to kitty love this morning. oh betty, you're so cute but obnoxious in the mornings.
-brett and i are going to katie's get together tomorrow. it'll be guaranteed good times.
-i don't know what we're going to do tonight, but options seem to be wide open.


ok, that was boring, and horrible. and definitely it for me today.

lindsay,
hope the depression subsides soon. knitting and kittens may help... kitten yarn game may help... i don't know what helps, actually, just am trying to reach out and not knowing what to say. :)

mark,

thanks for your suggestions, i think some knitting and kitty love is the perfect recipe to kick this shit. i've been enjoying your posts, by the way.

lindsay,

thank you. oh - i forgot to mention i deleted my facebook, so if you noticed i was gone, it was nothing personal. i deleted the whole thing...

yes, cats are wonderful creatures. i live alone now but walk out at night looking for cats to chill with. so far i know of a few: there's meowy cat - she's orange and tan and meows constantly. she loves being pet behind her ears. and there's cat cat, he's a fat black cat with green eyes who doesn't like being pet but he likes just sitting on the curb next to me and playing the yarn game.

a few nights ago i saw a third cat. i call it ghost paws because i saw it for just a moment and then it vanished. it is white and grey.

you've got a beautiful, warm light inside you, lindsay, don't forget it.
