Now, I look at the world and just get depressed. Not a "cry in my soup" depressed but a "whipped" feeling overcomes me when I watch the news sometimes. The positive must come out. I refuse to live in a "post holiday" slump. Granted, there are things in life we must all get through. Some realizations that "Life is Short" is not just a catch phrase. (enough with the quotation marks already!)
Well I've had to make an effort to smile lately. Nothing dramatic, just a slump but I can tell that, I just need a good laugh, a good friend, a good drink and some good music. Maybe I'll find the time over the next weekend to shake the blues but in the meantime I rely on funny emails from my friends.
I received an email from a friend in Florida. Most of the time she sends me crap like "If you don't send this to everyone you ever maintained eye contact with then you will die or have bad luck for 10 days" chain letters and Urban Legend "this happend to a woman in a dark parking lot" emails. But this time she sent me one called "thoughts on bathing a cat". That says it all, it made me laugh like hell, just what I needed. Thanks Elaine!
