Good day
Vast thanks to all the people that replied to the Ennui post a few days ago. I really needed the help/advice and it was cheering to see so many people offering useful tips/pointers.
It helped me a vast amount just to get all of that out - a combination of things that I've been thinking about for years, although the conclusions were ones I came to 3 or 4 years ago, it was still good to get it out of my head and down on paper.
Anyway, today is a good day. I feel happy, alive and together. There is a reason for this. The reason is that I have had a good night's sleep. Well, actually, no, I've had a better night's sleep than usual. I was asleep from 11-30 until Erin came to bed, then spent 15 minutes cheering her up before falling asleep again until 8. I haven't have enough sleep, but I've had sufficient that I don't feel drab and depressed.
Erin's new job offer came through this morning, and she'll be working 7-3 Monday - Thursday. This means that she'll be up at 5:30 I suspect, so she'll be going to bed by 10pm, latest. This means that I should be able to follow her to bed shortly thereafter and get a decent nights sleep.
I have, however, promised people that if I don't stop feeling depressed within the next couple of weeks, I'll go and see a doctor. I'm fairly sure that I don't fall into the depressed range, but it doesn't cost anything to make sure, and an independent opinion can't hurt.

Just for the hell of it.
Oh, and you still owe me a comment on the Ennui story...

I haven't forgotten the Ennui - honest. I only went on my PC long enough to set up downloads from poInt last night, and then long enough this morning to be blasted by him. :+{ I'll try and get round to it tonight. I'd do it in work, but it requires thought!
