My mood crashed badly yesterday evening. A mediocre therapy session combined with too much catching up on the newspaper, I guess.
I am soooo tired of these up and down moods.
I'm even upsetting my son, and I don't want to do that for the world.
People around here are so darn cheerful, no matter what, in face to face social meetings. But the tone of the mood in other settings is dark. Even our leaders are sending out mixed messages. C'mon over, we're ok for tourists, we're holding Mardi Gras. And Help! We're going down for the count! Both of which are true, I suppose.
No wonder my own mood careens from despair to being moderately ok. Or as I now answer "How are you?" "Post-Katrina". Because I got sick of lying and saying just fine. :) I think others like it too, because when I reciprocate the greeting, they reciprocate the answer.
So in addition to thanking you all, I also want to apologize for what I'm sure are very odd mixed messages.
Clear Skies, I'm going to answer you on Politics, I think.
