sad

our society doesn’t do a very good job of teaching us how to be sad. how is it that you are supposed to put in the time when you are giving the feelings their space? especially if you don’t have the energy to be creative? they keep yelling at me inside to not try to fix it… and i want to be good… but what is it we are supposed to do?


mechanics of cheap melodrama

i am overwrought. everything was ok until about yesterday, when we started to feel increasingly gloomy about our ridiculous workload. we made some time to be sad without trying to fix it – that was really hard, but i guess it helped. we just got under the covers and cried. not the kind of thing we generally do. but we are trying so hard here.

somewhere right in front of me and out of my sight

today is going to be mildly upsetting. we have to bring our guitar to school, and drag it through latin, and everything. i want to buy a gig bag so i can bring it on my scooter. it makes everything so very much easier to be able to scoot. but i’m doubting that i can find a way to strap my big hard case to it somehow.

maybe some other day, i’ll find my way

we teeter wildly. it’s not really ok. but nor is there anything really wrong. right now we’re ok. the quarter is over so very soon. finals suck, but we’ll get through them. they’re better than homework anyway. the house sucks, but we’ll be feeling better soon, and there will be time to clean. nothing’s wrong. nothing’s pressing. we had a really good therapy session yesterday. we are facing forward.
