I hate it when my mood crashes.  I don't want to take the thirty seconds to flip on my laptop, which is supremely dumb.  And it's not like I have anything to really be down about.  We spent our income tax return on new livingroom furniture and a dining room set that actually fits us all in.  I've got a brainless job that only takes up four hours a week (though it would take 6 to do it right, but hey, they only want to pay for four), which is a few hundred bucks more a month than we had before.  Our house is surprisingly clean, and it's the weekend.  So why am I so bloody depressed?!!!?!

I just feel down.  The podcast is going pretty well, we're up to fifty-ish listeners, and I am kind of proud of that.  Sam's the real heart of the show, but without me doing all the editing, uploading and shit, it wouldn't have ever gotten started.  My exercise program is totally derailed; perhaps that's part of my depression.  My eldest has had a fever all week, which meant a lot of catering to her and stuff, plus me trying not to panic constantly because we have no idea what's causing it (two doctors, neither can tell what it is either, which doesn't make me feel much better).  On the plus side, by thursday evening, we knew for sure it wasn't meningitis, which is a biggie.  And no, I can't spell worth a dam.

Perhaps that's why I'm so down.  Now that the excitement of getting new stuff, getting rid of the old and all the logistics of it is over, now that I can let my anxiety over my daughter go, I'm crashing.  It seems pretty logical, if not particularly comforting.

And I'm feeling bad cuz I promised myself to try LJing daily, and here I am, a mere month or so later, already messing up.  Sigh.  I do that a lot.  Mess up, fuck up, yadda yadda yadda.  Okay, nuff whining.  That's probably why I haven't been LJing; I hate having people see what a big whiner I am, especially when I don't have anything worth whining over.  

I really hate myself when I'm like this.  Loathe.  Feel contempt.  Yeah, I'm a real bundle of joy right now.

Tomorrow morning my beloved is off to play paintball while I do the janitor thing for a few hours.  At least this weekend it's only four hours; last two weekends it was eight.  Then I'm free!  Plus, I'll actually have the energy to go to the gym on sunday, which will definitely make me feel better, more accomplished.

I gotta get out of this rut.
