rynneHappy Halloween. Well, all ten minutes left of it. :p
I've had more mood swings in the past several days than I usually do when I'm on my period. (Which I'm not.) I was at a high on Friday, which took a nosedive on Saturday, and since then it's been up and down. Right now I'm a mix of happy/awed at Really Good Fic, and really down because I can't just crawl into my computer and live there and ignore school.
I miss working this summer. When I was, I missed school, since I didn't exactly have the most exciting job and in the past I've always enjoyed the challenge the school brings, but work rarely left me feeling like I was dancing on quicksand. Too, the separation between work and free time was very distinct; when I was on the clock, I worked, and when I wasn't, I could do whatever I wanted. I didn't have to worry about assignments intruding into my time at home.
I never thought I'd be so eager to join the working world.
I can't help but think of Linda and her leave of absence. Dunno if it's a good thing for me to think about--maybe the only way I can beat this malaise is by tackling it head-on, not hoping it will go away if I do something else.
It's just as well that I'm seeing a counselor. *sigh*

Taking time off from it all sometimes sounds so enticing, but I'm proud you're facing things head-on. I'll do it if you can!
