Sunday blues.

I am sad. I was fine this morning, but this afternoon, I am sad. I went off to work and a combination of factors brought me down. Firstly, I was feeding off one of my co-workers sadness that all her friends are leaving for college ahead of her and she is alone for a few more weeks. Secondly, I experienced the slowest day ever at the bead store. Some people were suggesting that it was due to the state faire. Whatever it was, there was no vim and vigor at work. It wasn’t fascinating and fast-paced. I felt like my brain was trudging uphill in mud by 3pm. Thirdly, I really missed my usual Sunday meeting with my friends. It’s the second or third one I haven’t been able to attend. I think I’ll have a talk with Stacy next week about me not working Sundays. I kept thinking all day about the wonderful conversations I was missing and how slow it was in the store. Fourthly, I was really missing something tasty. I left the house in a bit of a rush this morning and didn’t have time to make tea to bring to work. One of my co-workers had this really exciting smelling coffee that made me hopeful of scoring some tea or coffee today. When the tea fairy failed to show up, I took a break and left in search of an exciting beverage, but all the restaurants and shops around the area were closed. I came back to my faithful water bottle which, while keeping me hydrated, certainly was not the excitement that I so craved. It was rather a let-down. *heavy sigh*

So, I just arrived home and I immediately ran to the VitaMix and threw random bits in the container on high. I came out with this rather unique smoothie of soy milk, ice, soy orange cream ice cream, chocolate malt and black sesame seeds. I like it. It’s like an orange creamsicle gone wild. Now this is exciting! This is living! Maybe I’ll make it through the evening okay after all. I can almost feel the sadness slipping away through the ether.

I am better now. You know, it’s the little things in life, eh? I was sad, then I started drinking an exciting beverage, now I’m better. Is this normal? Or am I just easy to please?

Okay, I’m off to pour the rest of this concoction into my glass. I have the next three days off work. Yeah me!

You wanna do something over the next three days? I'm bored stiff, and there sure as hell isn't anything going on over here. :)

How are you feeling? I heard you weren't at tea yesterday.

Yes, I'd love to. Tonight I have a D&D game, but my morning and early afternoon are available for tea, movies or anything you'd like. Let me know. I'm home.
