I'm sad

I'm going to school to be ZS. abbottron3k @ zsu.edu

are you serious? TURN BACK

wait, sorry. what's the phrase? I am 3 sheets to the wind, or whatever

For a second I thought you were going to school for contracting, but I know you're teaching biology so contract work probably isn't your main focus!

No I am going to school to figure out how to be an awesome blonde dude who makes animated gifs & has cool kittens.

And then graduate in third place.

At the graduation ceremony the parents would sit awkwardly together and avoid eye contact

ok they can come too. i live in baltimore for the past 3 months btw

harbl are you going to any of high zero this year? say hi and introduce yourself if you are, I'm going to it most nights

ZS you should come up to Bmore too! lose the DC blues / travel is broadening

I don't have a car, but if I can convince my gf to go that sounds really fun. This has been a really lonely labor day weekend, since she's been home in MO for a funeral all week and I don't know too many people in DC yet. Getting out of town sounds so good right now.

What a crummy weekend!

That was probably the cause of me being bummed as hell all weekend, definitely. But I feel like in the past I would just get incredibly wasted and do creative projects all weekend to pass the time. This time I ended up just sitting here, literally staring at the wall. Before, I would say things like "how can you be bored? There's so much to learn?", this weekend I would have said "derrrrr"

I have watched a lot of Antiques Roadshow, though, so it hasn't been all that bad

Hey at least you guys had a holiday, you... guys.

I don't complain when you guys have Prawn Day.

nobody is sad on prawn day!

i'd like to get out of DC but now i don't have a job, so i can't afford to leave, but i also can't afford to stay. SO BUMMED, for real

Abbott - the dvd came in the mail today ... will try to get your copy off in the next day or two.

yr a sweetie

Is anyone else in this bitch having a bad time of it lately? I mean, maybe I'm paying too much attention to the news, or maybe I'm working too hard or not taking care of myself well enough, but man...the last three months have been an absolute BEAR.

Like, so much so that I really just want to go to bed, and wake up 6 months from now after I've done all the work I need to do between now and then.

UGH. SO just...overwhelming.

feeling you on this one,bro.

definitely. i feel very overwhelmed and frustrated.

it might help to not think in terms of what needs to be done 6 months ago and maybe set smaller goals achievable in shorter increments. more encouraging.

I have been dealt stress event after stress event lately and I've been fighting the blues like a sonovabitch.

See, this is totally true. And, on a day to day, I'm pretty successful. Work is going pretty well, I'm losing weight healthily, I've quit smoking (over 5 weeks) ... but man, I just need a few days where I don't have to think about shit and don't have to do shit, and am just left the fuck alone.

And this is VERY odd for me, b/c I tend to be a pretty social, outgoing guy who thrives on social contact.

I'm feeling like my own worst enemy at the moment, perpetuating the very things that are making me feel so depressed, but somehow that's easier than making a break away from them.

It's like I can't make changes at a sensible point, but have to let things slide all the way into a dreadful crisis where something cracks right at the very bottom of it all.

Ooh I'd love to wake up six months later: I so badly want to avoid my driving exam, I get mad crazy anxiety attacks just thinking about setting a date. My friend advised me to take some herbs (no, not weed) like Valeriaan but I'm afraid nothing will help me to relax. Also I think I'm doing way too fucking much which is tiring me the fuck out and results in me feeling very MEH (and in the long run will result in burn out yet again).

You just spoke my mind, man. I'm going through some extremely grave crises of faith and self-worth at the moment for reasons I don't wanna go into (though its partly just to do with aging, I guess). I've also had poor health and its all my fault, and I'm just fed up with feeling like everything is a battle instead of a beauty.

'm just fed up with feeling like everything is a battle instead of a beauty.

Goddamnit, this.

I'm feeling like my own worst enemy at the moment

Feeling this too atm.

and me too.

I'd say "fuck you DC", since I've been feeling this way since I moved to this town a few months ago, or "fuck you job" for the same reason, but in the end I have to say "fuck you getting older and having all my friends spread out across the country", because that's really what it is. All of my closest friends are hundreds or thousands of miles away.

Ah the close friends being thousands of miles away sucks Z S. I've dealt with that for years now and it's just really tough. I'm sort of used to it but it still sucks. I'm sorry you're experiencing that too.

Damn. We're all feeling this, too. Its to the point where one of my family or friends says "I miss you," and I'm reduced to a sad ball of bummer.

Ugh.

I'm just tired of always being unwell, and... other stuff.

long time sad bastard here; won't go into details except to say not being able to get health insurance is pretty uncool

anyway, here's a photo of pears shaped like buddhas (kinda cheered me up)
