chock full o' complaining.

boring whining ahoy! [you can just skip all of this]

as i was just saying to beth in an email, i'm totally uninspired blog-writing-wise, in case you hadn't uhhh noticed (yes, today is friend linkage day, what of it?). i think 50% of this relates to the past 4 days being a fucking marathon of primary caregiving, while the other 50% i put squarely on the shoulders of the shitty weather we've been having (shut up, weather can have shoulders if want it to -- roll with it). normally i'm not one to whine about our atmosphere and its products, but jesus fucking christ its supposed to be SPRING with average highs in the 50s-60s, but instead its been in the bone-chilling 30s-40s, with a ceaseless deluge of rain (alternating with periods of cloudy gray dullness, the kind to slit your wrists by). i just feel BLAH. specifically, that feeling of blahness that is like an itch you can't scratch... and so you're left feeling irritated and annoyed with pretty much everything and everyone. its also a form of paralysis: i can't be bothered to do ANYTHING today. goldfish crackers constitute a lunch, right?

basically, the world sucks and i'm ready to get off.

the most excitement i've had in the past few days is watching michigan state beat UK to make it to the final four last night. but of course there HAD TO BE a depressing side to this, which is that though i had two different opportunities to complete a bracket and get in on a pool this year, i didn't. man, NOBODY would've picked michigan state except me -- i'd be king of the world! woohoo! but no. and now i must suffer with the knowledge of what could've been. sigh.

jamie, if you read this, please come home. sniff.

I know what you mean about the weather. It can be extremely depressing - especially in the midwest when Spring seems to take forever to come.

Watching the kids alone for that many days while your husband is away is enough to set anyone into a state of depression. hang on. He'll be home soon!
