I was sick all last night, which totally played into this idea. But I was also sick last week, all week.

On the downside:

-One of the blisters on my second-degree burn popped (sorry) and it hurts like a fucker

-It's cold in here because there's no way in hell I'm touching the radiator again

-My Percocet quit working last night so I haven't had any today

-I'm so sick of NYC

-My boyfriend and I kind of hate each other

-It's snowing

On the upside:

-Tomorrow, the awesome Obamas are officially our First Family

-I have Boone's Farm that is working much better than the Percocet

-I'm moving back home in a few months

-When I move, I'll be single

-When I move, I'll get to play with my furry puppy all damn day

-I have the day off

-It's snowing and I don't have to be out in it!

Oh come ON people. Today is the last day you will ever have to check CNN to see what dumbass move Bushie has pulled since yesterday. This should be the best day EVER!

I'm on the 3rd day of a 4-day weekend, Obama finally becomes president tomorrow, and we're having steak for dinner. Nope, I couldn't possibly be depressed today! I'm even getting over the Eagles' ignominious losing yesterday.

Wow, odd. I have the day off and have felt paralyzed in bed with lethargy and depression. Overshare time anyone? My lady parts are inexplicably cramping up and bleeding and I'm having worst case scenario thoughts, I'm worrying a boy will never call, feeling nauseous in general, bank account is dried up, blah blah blah. Feel like crying but not totally sure why.

I think this is probably because I'm crazy though, not the date. Errr.

@shewar: If I had read this before 4pm, I would've peeled myself out of bed and crawled to Bklyn to give you a hug! And some of my Boone's Farm. (Percocet stopped working.)

Awesome now I have an excuse for my emotional and irrational depressed mood swing last night after mid night. "Hunny it's ok I'm not crazy, it was just Blue Monday" And to think I pulled my half asleep butt to work today, I should have called in sick!

@TheUptightMidwesterner considers North Face and Sorel high ...: Happy Birthday!

But I totally understand the Bday depression. Mine was 2 weeks ago and I spent it in bed moping and ignoring all my calls.

The good news is you're entitled to act as ridiculous as you want on your Bday. Have a drink and throw some shit at the wall!

I got laid off this morning! So this is sadly appropriate. I will, however, send it to a lot of people in the same situation as I am.

Since January 20th is my mom's birthday (this year, she gets a new president!), January 19th is rarely associated with bad times in my book. Today, I have a wedding dress arriving at the bridal shop, two interviews to prep for tomorrow, said new president to eagerly anticipate, an old president to ignore for the rest of his life, lots of Albuquerque sunshine, fresh banana bread, a cup of Celestial Seasonings Nutcracker Sweet tea (they only make it around the holidays, so I buy lots of boxes and hoard it), and three contented cats buzzing around. Happy joy!

I'm mostly blue today because I put off all of this week's reading so far, and therefore have to spend my day off doing nothing but reading. Anthropology reading. Literary theory reading. Actual literature reading. Poetry reading. Etc.

And there's snow, and friends, and I'd rather be hanging out with friends (possibly in the snow) or something of the like.

I'm in a relatively new relationship with a lovely man, my foot FINALLY works painlessly (I have had more damn problems with my left foot, including surgeries and sprains, than any 26-year-old woman should), I have today off to sit around in my underpants drinking boxed wine, I have a cute little apartment of my very own, I have fulfilling hobbies (drawing! learning to play violin!) and for now my job isn't in peril. (For now.) My family is sane, funny, healthy, and supportive (despite being entirely too far away.) I work in a vibrant, fascinating, bad-ass town. A truly historic event is happening tomorrow.

I'm supposed to feel bad?

@tscheese: You're learning to play the violin too?!

I haven't gotten past intermittent screeching. (I think it's broken.) I wish you luck, though!

@hydrogen_jukebox: Yeah, it's a lot of fun! I'm past "caterwauling" and more onto "noises that might have been notes if they weren't so damn uncertain and scratchy." I'm sure my neighbors love me.
