Mountains & Molehills
Yesterday we were obligated by desire and blue skies to take a walk in the middle of what would be normal-people’s work day.
Right now I feel like taking a month long vacation. Not a real, TOTAL “vacation”, but a chance to actually catch up on work with some breathing room to get healthy. There’s nothing horrible going on in my life; everything is pretty awesome . . . except that I sometimes feel like I’m losing my mind. I’m feeling optimistic about it though now that I’m starting to understand why and commit to fixing the problem(s). I *really really appreciate* those of you who’ve taken the time and shared of yourself to suggest I look into getting my thyroid checked.
I could blog about this and all things related to it for hours, but now’s not the best time to do it justice and make it sound relevant to people who probably have no idea how relevant it really IS to at least 10% of the population plus all the people who love them and wonder why they’re cold, tired, fat, and crazy bitches with thinning hair and dry pussies. And the clueless, careless doctors who think it’s all in our heads and just prescribe anti-depressants without even bothering to test us.
I am mad, hopeful, tired and I have a good, holistic plan (which includes taking as many walks in the middle of the day as possible) to get myself into top form and be less crazy. Again, I say I’d love to have a month-long “vacation”, meaning a break from commitments but not a break from work. I’m not actually begging for that to fall out of the sky, I’m just semi-wishfully thinking while being partially thankful I can’t have one. Because I don’t really WANT one. I WANT to work. I’m just really fucking tired, but at least now I know WHY.
Okay. Maybe I *do* want to take a real vacation whenever I walk past someone who lives on shiny wheels:
