So I slept. It's warm. I got a tan. I watched some great baseball. Watched a few funny movies. Hung out with friends and family.
And that's how you kick depression right in the ass.

The "D" Word
So here's the thing about depression. It's sneaky. I don't know it's coming until it's already here.
It starts with the messed up sleep. It can take a while but after a month or two of really crappy sleep I realize that I'm exhausted. Then that's all I can think about. When can I sleep again. I could nap like a toddler but then I'll never sleep at night so that's not the best idea. I could concentrate really really hard on something to dream about when I go to bed at night and maybe that will help except that once I start that I can't turn my brain off again. So that's a horrible idea.
After a few weeks all I can think about is how much I really want to sleep...that's when I just get sad. Blue. Down. Hopeless.
Then I just want to be alone. I don't want to be around anyone but my family. I don't want to get dressed. I don't want to do anything. But sleep.
So please excuse me if I'm being a loner. It's just that depression sneaked up on me and now I have to kick it's ass.
Hopefully it won't take too long.

I Hate This Place
So last Tuesday it got up to 89 degrees. Right now...45 degrees.
I will be looking at property in Arizona.
I could go for a nice dry heat
