Ever have one of those days?

Have you ever had one of those days where nothing is wrong and nothing bad happens but nothing good happens either so you feel down without knowing why? I've been stuck in a whole week of those for some reason. It's been just such a bleh week. Nothing is really going on, nothing seems to get done, and all I want to do is sleep. I don't know why I've been so depressed but I feel like I'm bringing down everyone else around me and I don't like that feeling.

Today was particularly bad... I woke up with a feeling of dread, I trudged to school, I sat in class and zoned, then felt like lead for the rest of the day. In sculpture it took me almost two hours to make a rectangle mold out of clay when it would take me a half an hour on a (an? 'an usual' sounds weird to me) usual day. It just felt like I was trying to mold steel with my hands and I felt very weak and tired, so unfocused and dazed, that I just couldn't get it right. I guess I didn't get in trouble only because Bobby Joe said he felt the same way, which made me realize how many other people were feeling the same way. It was like a cloud of 'meh' had settled over our city and was making tempers short, happiness feel grey, emotions ultra sensitive, and work seem like a monumental task.

I really hope the haze breaks soon, I'm afraid it might lead to a breaking point for me. I really can't handle another one so soon after the last. Here's to hoping the weekend will give me time to rest and regroup so I can snap out of it.

I just...

REALLY fucking love this guy! It's like if Misha Goro ever got SUPER rich. I like to imagine this is what he would be like.

Also, on a slightly more serious note, this is super awesome too. I love the design of it. It's very interesting.

I survived!

I survived Blizzard 2011! Woohoo!

We had 22 inches here in Homer Glen with drifts well over 6 feet deep. We couldn't even open our back door onto the balcony this morning. We spent a good 4 hours shoveling/snow blowing the driveway and 2 balconies so we would be able to get up before spring. It was INSANE! The dog loved it though, so that's good. He dug himself a tunnel from one side of the yard to the other and kept popping up out of the snow like this fox:




 It was hilarious to watch. Too bad I was too busy shoveling to get my camera out. I'm going to probably get him doing it again tomorrow though, so pictures will be a must. Hope everyone got through the crazy THUNDERSNOW alright last night! Our lights kept flickering and it was pretty scary. Lucky we didn't lose power. Alright, going to go drink some hot tea and enjoy being inside.
