Funkarella

Wow - I'm in a major funk this afternoon.

The weather is frightful - windy and stormy and raining like crazy.

I went and had lunch with Asia, which usually brightens any day, but for some reason this afternoon, I'm restless and discontent and cranky. My poor kids. They're really being troopers, 'cause Mom's checked out.

I don't know why this happens... it's that dark cloud I've talked about...

I find myself just wanting to put my head in my hands and close out the world. Take a LONG nap. Like three days long.

I'd like to blame it on the weather, or the long winter - but truth is, I get like this in the summer too - so that's totally not it.

It's just my ugly funky monster, rearing it's stupid head.

Makes me tired.
Really tired.

Getting to know you Wednesday

So it's been awhile. But I thought hearing from ya'll might cheer up my little snow encrusted Spokane self. So today, if I get at least 12 comments, I'll randomly pick one and send that lucky commenter any CD from Your Music . Whatever you want. So today, in light of mid-winter doldrums, I want you to answer the following three questions. To escape mid-winter doldrums, I like to: My favorite winter memory is: I know Spring is coming when: Okay, friends. Now it's your turn. Go to it.

The floodgates have opened.

So, I was doing pretty well managing my emotions. I kept telling people that I had processed a lot of my grieving over Tejan's departure back in January - when we were so close to saying goodbye... and so that must be why I wasn't feeling overly emotional about it this time around. I hadn't shed any tears. Hadn't choked up in that strange, overwhelming way where I feel like my whole head is filling up with fluid and my throat is so constricted I'm just sure I'm going to die. Nope. I was doing just fine. And then I went out to dinner with some girlfriends. And while I was a little socially inept because I'm a kind of overwhelmed and not really wanting to talk too much lately (perhaps in subconscious fear that I might touch on a nerve that would cause my aforementioned steely resolve to crumble) I thought I got through the evening fairly well. I didn't tear up - or need tissue for any fluids defiantly leaking from my facial orifices... until I made the a...
