Emotional Hangover

Jan 01, 2005 18:39

I stole "Emotional Hangover" right from tenner, since he says he doesn't have one. The current score is Eccentrica Gallumbits spent the past 18 hours suffering from diarrhea, and now I am starting to do same. Ugh. This is in addition to possibly breaking a rib on Thursday night. I know, I know, "Bitch. Bitch. Bitch. Didn't anything good happen this Holiday Season?" Yes. Tons. Also some not good stuff.

Mads, of course, made out like a bandit at Christmas and Chanukah. I got to see some friends and family that I hadn't seen for a while. At the same time, I missed seeing more friends at New Years Eve because I was exhausted and elected to sleep through my friends' party rather than being a miserable bastard. That was probably a good call on my part, but sad nonetheless.

Upshot being that I am emotionally spent, exhausted, done. I'm sort of, but not entirely looking forward to going back to being a government drone on Monday. At the same time, I will miss the intensity of the past few weeks.

I had been worried that I was getting too much into a routine. I was feeling that I wasn't feeling very much, sort of numb. Well, I can safely say that I have run the gamut of almost any conceivable emotion, and many conceivable physical sensations as well. Including the odd feeling of having a piece of my chest "pop" while leaning over a railing.

Of course, I'd do it all again in a heartbeat, even the rib popping thing, if I had to. Though I think next time I'll make sure I've fully rested. Here's to 2005.

L'Chaim!
