I think they're onto me.
Feb. 10th, 2008 10:47 pmI spent all of last week exceedingly anxious. I thought it was cabin fever, SAD, lots of snow, etc. etc., but then finally on Friday I realized, wait, I started feeling depressed early in the week, so I took more SAMe in the morning and I think that was perhaps what was messing me up. So I was still immobile and paralyzed, but not out of lethargy or feeling down, but from jittery reeling mind and inability to concentrate or focus. I went back to regular dosage on Friday and I've been better since. Then again, it was also the weekend, which might have helped.
It has still been a high anxiety weekend in the house, because DYA is doing her first closing argument for a jury trial, but we are surviving. We vegged out on Friday, then on Saturday I went on another date with Cupcakes Malone while she stayed home to work. It was another frigid day here, so of course it is all over the news, during every conversation, and effects random planning because of abilities to get out of icy parking spot or whether the trip is long enough that the key will be able to come out of the ignition.
On Friday night we watched six, SIX, episodes in a row of Friday Night Lights. I normally can't do that many in a row, after 4 I start to get agitated or asleep. But this time I hardly noticed. And now I"m all sad that its over and I miss the characters. On Saturday morning we watched The Lives of Others and I know I'm in the minority for the most part, but I thought it wasn't very good. I mean, it was well made and well acted and well executed, but there were plotholes I could walk through plus I found that structurally the movie was really sexist, which I wasn't really expecting at all - especially since I heard so many good things and was looking forward to it. ( spoiler stuff in case you've seen it and want to know what I'm talking about )
I'm sure lots of people disagree or didn't see that or feel that way, but oh well, lucky me, I guess.
Was it just me or were the Grammys weirdly awesome this year? I turned them on at the very beginning, thinking they would occupy 10 minutes while eating dinner, and I stayed for the entire 3 1/2 hours.
