Escaping the Doldrums


h1 January 12th, 2006

Lately, I’ve been kind of dragging myself around, too tired to motivate myself to do anything.

I’ve gotten tired of all my favorite things. My favorite foods - cheese, crackers, and pizza - don’t excite my stomach anymore. My favorite jeans - my True Religions - don’t make me feel as hot anymore. My favorite musicians - The Beatles and Ani DiFranco - don’t make me feel like closing my eyes and singing along. Friends reruns aren’t making me cackle in glee. My favorite sports teams - the Packers, the Lakers, and the Trojans - all disappointed me this year (although the Lakers still have a shot to make me happy, if they at least make the playoffs). The OC (at least, the last couple episodes I saw) isn’t making me gasp in shock. I don’t feel like reading. Even Sudoku isn’t really entertaining me.

I think I’m in the Doldrums. Please, PLEASE, help me escape. I need to re-find my spark.

  1. relax, girl..hopefully it’s just pms ;) maybe listening to some upbeat music(smthg different frm your usual favourites), or reading something inspirational will help. or go sight-seeing! cheer up, it’s too early in the new year to feel run-down :)


  2. ugh…I have been there my whole life…well maybe I am exaggerating. I think this weekend will make you feel better. Maybe a Wrentham trip will cheer you up.


  3. Come to Michigan! Where the sun shines once every 20 days!!!


  4. I’d suggest going to your blog archives and that bit about farting in gym class. That’s pulled me out of bad moods a couple of times.


  5. That’s OK…you will be saved by…the season opener of 24 on sunday!
