Today is a much better day. Last night, after I posted, I found myself falling into full depression, which hadn't happened in so many months that I'd forgotten what the warning signs looked like. Luckily I had the guts to call up a friend and ask to hang. She had other plans, but with a big group, and insisted one more would not be a tag along. So I went.
It was exactly what I needed. I goofed off, I had fun, I laughed, I danced (in my seat, because of the knee) and I sang. There was alcohol involved, but not nastily large quantities. I got to see my friends and make new ones. I got out of the house. Best of all, I made myself do it. I recognized the slump and did not wallow. I took action. Pills only go so far, and the rest is up to you.
So today I woke up feeling much, much better, and I ran some errands and ate a good meal and all that junk. And I found a pair of jeans that I thought might replace the others I'd planned on wearing as part of my Killjoys outfit. They have a few holes and stuff (the others have more) but they also have patches. Different denim colored patches up the knees and thighs. They were on sale for 9 bucks, so I grabbed the biggest size I could find and just bought them, hoping. They are a Junior's 11, so I wasn't sure. I know I can do a 13, and sometimes a 12. But I just tried them on and THEY FIT! \o/ So there was a very happy moment there. I am excited. :)
Now I have to decide which ones, which ones. I may grate these down in a couple more places, make them more threadbare. Then they'll be perfect.
