Rough day

[anagramofbrat]

Good news:
Had a good, productive workday. Rediscovered for the umpteenth time that music really is the key to keeping my brain on task and functioning, pulling me out of depressive funks, and getting things done. So I am putting a call out to anyone who feels like giving me a hand in the mental health department; if it seems like I'm feeling a little off, unable to function/concentrate, or having some serious emo b'awws, tell me to go put on iTunes. If you feel like totally being a bitch about it, check my last.fm profile (username kjpepper) and make sure I've done so.

Bad news:
Found out that Dad's in the hospital for severe anemia. Waiting on word regarding what's going on with that and trying to figure out if I need to dash down to New York this week as a result.

Good news:
I made chicken and potatoes. I seem to have this things where a whole potato seems a lot smaller than it actually is so I end up making too much.

Bad news:
I got distracted and left them in the oven a little long. THey're not burned or bad, just crispier than I intended.

Good news:
Despite upheaval and general mental wooblies and worrying about Dad, I did have a good, productive day

Bad news:
I am still behind on everything, overwhelmed by my ever present to-do lists, and generally feeling like a complete and utter failure at life right now.

Good news:
...but it's supposed to snow tomorrow. And there's Ladies Night tonight. And I have books. And someone who loves me. So I guess it ain't all bad, right?

...right?

Hope your Dad is OK. I'm glad you still got lots of stuff done in the face of stress!

yeah, I'm stubbornly holding onto my accomplishments for today, damn it, cause they were pretty good, all things considered.

I hope Pops is OK.

[bottledgoose.livejournal.com]

Me too.

Sending the good vibes...the bad ones go to keep snow form falling here too deep.

yeah what'd I tell you last year about y'all stealing all our goddamn snow? I'm about to march down to Atlanta and lay down some winter-lovin' Negress law.

Maybe you just need to move your Bene Gesserit ass to the snow trick.

I feel the same way about music. It always fits my mood, and provides me with constant support for lack of a better word.
