cure for the doldrums.

yesterday i was down in the dumps. missing my sister. missing my friends. missing the cookies i had baked earlier in the week (i should not have eaten them all at once. rookie mistake.)

i've been angry and hurt and resentful. you would think if someone offered to take a week off from work and travel all the way across the country to spend some time with you, you'd be able to at least muster a tiny bit of enthusiasm. but nothing. total heartbreak. my temp even caught me crying at work. which is very unfortunate. i don't think she'll ever see me as an authority figure now.

this morning i went for a run. sweaty but therapeutic. i drank some coffee and continued reading east of eden. and i plan to spend my afternoon hiding out in a movie theater with a box of sourpatchkids and some embarrassingly bad romantic comedies.
