the blahs

[arguchik]

i've had the blahs for 2-3 days now. a little blue, a little lackluster, a little low on energy.
teaching: blah
weather: blah
self-confidence: blah
everything else except maybe one or two things: blah

whence and wherefore? i have no firm explanation. perhaps it's the post-holiday, post-new year, pre-birthday blahs. it doesn't seem to be identical with the impending global doom vibe i wrote about the other day. this is more personal and local. i want something *fun* to happen, and i'm getting to the point where i'm going to start instigating mischief just to stir up the sediment a little.

what do you do, to chase away the blahs?

i'm not sure if i have any music that would embarrass me, but there's plenty i could go out and buy, that might fit the bill (fill the bill? fulfill the bill?). vanhalen, for example. it would have to be VH-II or Women and Children First, i think. lol. not exactly dancing music, but the bra and panties part is probably appropriate.

i like to do what i call "epic walking," too. for an "epic walk," i pack up some snacks and water, a raincoat, whatever i think i might need, and i just go out and walk the city. the goal is to get lost, then find my way back home. i really enjoyed doing this with my dog when he was still alive, because i could go at almost any hour of the day or night, and i never had to worry about anyone accosting me. i have to be more careful now, but i still do it...just haven't had time for such a thing this week. it chews up hours if you let it.
