(no subject)
I am sitting here watching a thunderstorm roll in. This is damn cool. Every second that goes by, it is getting noticeably darker in my room. I'm going to need to turn a light on if this keeps up.
Been awhile since I posted here, huh? I started a myspace thing and jumped on yet another bandwagon. http://www.myspace.com/rockchic_julie
I think that'll get you to it. Nothing really exciting there. Although I've noticed that I have no female "friends" there. I looked for some, but I can't find any! Ha, at the moment, that amuses me.
So I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder a few weeks ago, and I was really reluctant to believe it at first. I started taking medication for it though, and I feel a lot better. I mean, is this what normal feels like? I feel steadier and less irritable, and just.. wow. I'm gonna give it another month and see if this keeps up, but damn. I guess there's a bipolar II, where people never reach a full mania (cuz I never have) and the hypomania seems to fit a lot better. And the hypomania got worse when I started the antidepressants - which I guess is also symptomatic. I would be sitting at work, and my heart would start to race for no reason, I would feel giddy and happy for no reason, I couldn't sit still, I struck up conversation with anyone and everyone to the point where I was annoying people... odd.
So that's me.
FIU is giving me $300 in travel cost re-imbursement. Hopefully I can set up a "vacation" to Miami in mid-May. Something else to look forward to.
And get this. Drew, you know, the infamous married man that I "dated," informed me that he's flying back to NY for a business thing. He says he wants to see me. I am all conflicted about this. It sucks to be both happy and sad about something. To both love and hate a person. Well, I don't hate people, but there are such hurtful memories attached to him.
I no longer have any vices. I have given up drinking. I have given up caffeine. I drink decaf coffee b/c otherwise the only thing I would drink is water. I suppose I should drink juices or something. Coffee is cheaper though.
Ok, well this storm is not very interesting. It's just dark clouds, colder temps (time to close my windows), and a wussy rain. Boo.
Time for a shower.
