► I meant to post a journal entry for yesterday, but I fell asleep late in the afternoon and didn't wake up until well after midnight. Oopsies.
As I mentioned in my previous entry, my mood did improve a lot Wednesday morning. By evening, however, I was feeling the tendrils of depression and worry take hold again. Yesterday morning I was pretty bad. While far from my worst, I just felt emotionally overwhelmed all morning long, sitting perched on top of my stool playing
Freecell. When I finally took a shower, and late morning nap, it helped a bit although I was groggy when I woke up. That grogginess is probably why it was surprisingly easy for me to go out with Dad to pick up groceries at 1:00pm.
I had asked Dad if I could borrow a small suitcase since I don't want to use Dean's dirtied bookbag again when I house sit this weekend. That won't be an issue now, because he gave me one of our old suitcases and said I could keep it. It's actually bigger than I really need since I only need to bring 4 days of clothes, but I'll be able to put my toiletries and other stuff in it too.
Still have my eye on that small white hard plastic shell suitcase with the red maple leaf on the front that I've seen at Sears. Not that I can afford it (I think it's around $75).
► Nice little surprise when Dad and I went to Zellers yesterday, as I stumbled across a DVD I've been trying to find for some time. The DVD is a triple feature release with
Psycho II,
Psycho III, and
Psycho IV: The Beginning. I've never seen the third or fourth films, but I remember seeing Psycho II on late night TV when I was in high school, and recalled it was actually pretty good. Walmart had this DVD for some time, and I had come close to buying it several times, but when I eventually went to buy it a couple of years ago it was gone. A week or two ago I was in a chat room and got to talking about movies with a couple of guys. One recommended I get the DVD if I could, saying the fourth film is actually pretty good and interesting. Just a strange coincidence that I happened to finally find the DVD again (for $10), after all this time.
I already have the original
Psycho in my 14 film
Alfred Hitchcock Masterpiece Collection.

Top 10 Harrison Ford Movies - What? No love for
The Mosquito Coast? Shameful! I can't help but think this list was just another excuse to trash
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Was it as great as the others? No. But it was a good solid and entertaining film.
