music: “2+2=5,” Radiohead
Well, well. Guess who’s back to her old self! My mouth (while not completely healed) is feeling much better, and after yesterday, which was horrific, I cannot fathom the situation deteriorating, and therefore expect the worst is over.
I spent an hour in the shower today. I’m not really a bathtub person, but I like to “soak” in the shower and contemplate the world. (Yes, and I really love to wash my hair. Stop giving me those looks, you know you love it too. Harumph.) Today I was thinking about how different my daily routine is going to be once I’ve moved into my dorm.
Unfortunately, in all of the craziness surrounding my little surgical endeavor, I didn’t take my depression medicine for three days. That wasn’t a particularly good thing, since I tend to have extreme mood swings when I stop it suddenly. So today I was moody and melancholy, even though I started back up on the pills again. I was in one of those moods where I’d rather have gray than green, and I’d rather sulk than laugh. It’s really a dull mood to be in, but since I don’t have many of them anymore, I wasn’t really worried. People have to feel down sometimes.
Today, though, I finally tried the cheat for TheSims. That game is so much more interesting when all I do is build houses, deck them out, bulldoze them, and do it again. I expect I’ll have to give it back to James in the next few days, and although I’ll sigh to see it go, I’ve decided that my original opinion regarding computer games still stands. (You’ll have to scroll back through recent entries to see what it was, I’m not feeling like linking you today.)
And I won’t miss my brother’s Playstation in college, either. I’m just not much of a gamer, I suppose. I’ve only been doing it lately out of boredom, because I can’t concentrate well enough to read. But it only lasted a short while, so I don’t consider myself corrupted.
I watched Far From Heaven today. I had mixed feelings about it. It was pretty well acted, I suppose, and I’m a fan of Julianne Moore, anyway, so I can’t say it was bad. And although it was essentially a sad movie, and really very predictable, it was a decent way to pass two hours.
This entry is very choppy. I don’t like that. But I’m not fixing it.
