I feel down.
This feeling is partially the result of my general well-being. As soon as I'm feeling healthier and more lively, my body retaliates. This time, not only am I having continued difficulties with my pilonidal cyst excision wounds [again], but I'm also having some sinus or allergy issues. I'm attributing both sets of problems with settling into a new place. More potentially-harmful activity. Different allergens and pollutants. I'm hoping some rest and minor pill-popping will help me get everything under control.
Otherwise, most of this 'downness' stems from mental and emotional strain. I expect a lot of myself. Then I presume these expectations to be the reasonable demands of society or the people I love, which usually leads me to varying degrees of disappointment. Lately, I've been wishing that I were blissfully ignorant, or that I could ignore my self-imposed gravity. Just enough to willfully push forward without a thought about the what-ifs.
Blargh. I need some fulfilling Jen time.
