I didn’t post yesterday; a combination of being legitimately too busy, having very little to say, and a mild ennui/stress/depression thing that had me not in the mood to interact with the universe. Plus the boy’s been poorly for the last day or so and yesterday was rather more filled with tears than I wanted it to be. (Mom: don’t panic.)
Today, on the other hand, is going much better. New Atmosphere CD, for starters, which is awesome. I’ve managed to make it two days at work without raising my voice; also super awesome. And this book thing is thisclose to being done; I’ve got a couple of annoying formatting things in the ebook that I really want to fix– one blank page that I can’t get to go away and some weirdness with my author picture in the back, plus I need to figure out where the copyright notice goes, if I’m gonna bother to put one in. Niggly stuff, mostly; I’ve got ebooks from professional publishing houses with a bunch of blank pages, so I might be stressing about one a trifle too much.
I think I’ll show my son Frozen this afternoon. He’s never seen it before. Neither has my wife. We’ll see if it can dethrone Lilo and Stitch–which, don’t get me wrong, I love– as greatest movie ever or not.
Or maybe I’ll just go outside. It’s fuckin’ beautiful out there.
How are you, Internet?

I applaud your courage to speak about depression online and your choice of self-care. I tend to ignore self-care when I’m down. Good for you for watching that movie with your family.

While I never mind applause, don’t read too much into it: just a bad day, that’s all. “Ennui” is probably the most accurate of the three words. 🙂

I’m very glad to hear that. Thanks for letting me know! Enjoy the movie. I hear it’s really good.

Neither my wife nor I enjoyed Frozen, though she liked it a little more than I. And we watched it at home. Alone. Within no single sight nor sound of a pre-adolescent. So maybe that’s the trick. Take delight in your child’s enjoyment. But then it sounds like you’ve already seen and enjoyed it. Either way, it should help to dispel any ennui that still lingers.

Glad you finished the book. I’ve yet to see Frozen. Really want to though.
