I Can Think Clearly Now...

... the fuzz is gone. :)

So I decided to cut off the Amitriptyline last night. It just doesn't seem to be doing me much good, and I got sick of not being able to focus and making a lotta stupid mistakes at work. I'm gonna lose my advantage of being useful if I keep that up... or at the very least it'll start making me doubt myself, which is worse.

And I feel SOO much better today! I still had a sluggish time gettin up this mornin, and my body's still a bit tired... but my head feels SO much clearer! I finally feel back on my game today. :)

It's almost the end of the work day (I started this about an hour ago, and then had more stuff come up to do), so I guess this'll be pretty short. But I DO want to note my belief that part of my physical fatigue is due to Winter inactivity. I felt a huge sense of accomplishment this past weekend by finally getting to my annual plant maintenance (which I've missed for a couple of years... for a lotta reasons but primarily laziness and the fact that my li'l apartment is not well equipped for convenient dispatching of such duties).

Of course, it was my first major physical activity in a while, and my poor legs felt all the squatting and bending, the next day. But it felt good... and it kind of shook me out of my Winter hibernation. I'm geared up for more activity... packing this weekend, maybe actually pulling out the treadmill and starting my Spring exercise regimen.

AND I'm feeling much less anti-social. Actually felt like callin up Mikee to wish her a (month and half late) Happy Birthday, and it was great to talk to her and BBM again. I'll have to get into their goings on another day.

I also tried to call up Halloween Nut again... only to get her answering machine again. But I have since chatted with Radish (yesterday, I think) and have learned that H.N. is mostly working weekends these days. Which is, of course, the usual time I'm up to talkin to anybody, as I usually need my space weeknights after dealing with peeps all day. But that's cool... I also found out that H.N. isn't upset with me in the slightest... she's merely just as bad at calling/writing/etc. as I am. :) I'll probably try to call again one of these weeknights.

Radish is well, too... has new goings ons (another move next month) and we're due for a phone call sometime this week to yap about the new NBC show on Monday nights: "Medium". I hadn't wanted to involve her as a go-between me and H.N. (she's already dealing with that with another situation... much closer to her) but I AM glad that she happened to read my blog that morning and felt inclined to reassure me. :)

So all is good with the world. At least for today. :)

P.S.... Oh, and I had a rather in-depth philosophical convo with mom on Sunday, too. Mostly about Society values vs. Religious values and such... it's actually something I'd like to blog about, but not today. Too much to get into. Perhaps another day. G'night!
