Miseryyyyyyyy

Okay, that's a little dramatic.  But honestly, lately I consistently have the Monday blues.  It's a relatively new feeling for me that hasn't been easy to deal with. I think that the huge hill outside of my apartment that I have to bike up in order to get to work is often where it begins...it's like an uphill battle that I literally and metaphorically start my day with every day.

I'm really trying not to let the blues get a hold of me, but ya know, even when I can psyche myself up to bike to work and enjoy a beautiful morning...after a stupid landscaping trucks squeezed me between parked cars on cleveland road and then, I began delving into the lingering annoying tasks that I didn't finish last week...by 11 AM my good attitude reserves were already spent.

Ah, what to do? Helium and Strindberg, that's what.  Strindberg somehow reminds me that working hard, trying to make gold is rough...and I do take joy in knowing it would take a lot for me to be as miserable as him.
