Staying positive
December 16, 2007 · Filed under: Personal.
Is really fucking hard.
But I thought, instead of going the emo route, making yet another People That Must Die list, and wallowing in my own misfortune (how poetic), I thought I’d make a positives and negatives list on just… things. This sounded a lot more interesting in my head, but I really am too tired to think of something else.
Positives
- Had a tornado warning this morning. Instead of freaking out and waiting for my impending doom, I lay in my bed and snuggled against my pillow whilst looking outside and admiring the lightning? I’m serious about this Staying Positive thing.
- Regardless of giving my bird time-outs, he still loves to snuggle up against me.
- Good health and stuff.
I thought that was going to be longer. Sigh. On to the negatives…
Negatives
- I need a job.
- I have no internet.
- My laptop needs to be fixed, and I might have to return my new camcorder to do it.
- I miss my soulmate.
And now that I wrote this list out, and thought about each of the things, I don’t feel any better. Rather, I have a huge Your Life Sucks flashing in my brain.
I’m a little down at the moment, and usually I don’t like to talk about when I’m down, because that’s not very interesting to read. And I aim to make things interesting, otherwise I would post this crap on my livejournal. Not only that but, it doesn’t help me any.
Usually when I’m down I watch something that makes me smile, and I might just do that in a bit. It’s one of my pick-me-ups. Another thing I do is eat some comfort food, read a good book, or talk to my friends. That always helps me feel better, so I’m going to go do some of that.
Actually, before I do, what are some of your pick-me-ups? Things that you do to make you feel better or lighten the mood?
