So, I know I'm having bouts of situational depression and irritability. I'm probably not justified having these feelings, since there are many of my close friends who ARE actually going through very difficult changes and I shouldn't wallow in my lesser troubles, if only out of respect for them. Can I winge for a minute, and then maybe I won't be so irritable? I withdrew from school thinking that I would be moving out to Reno to live with a blond, very large, broad-shouldered anti-depressant. Surprisingly, he is a very easy pill to swallow despite the fact that I find dry boogers all over the walls in his apartment. However, I will probably have to settle for St John's Wort as we have decided to stay in Utah so that Luke can finish school here, thus, I'm living with my parents again, and although I love them, this is not my natural domain and hasn't been since I was 18. From that age, I was adamant I remain independent from them, however, irony has woven its way into the tapestry of my life story more than once, and so I must 'eat my words', again, and stay here in Utah until June. My pc is in the shop and has been busted for almost a month now which prevents me from being able to work on my novel ( I am currently stealing my mother's ancient iBook). Against my better judgement, I am very tempted to buy a brand new laptop on credit! And, one or more persons in my immediate family are getting up my keester more than usual, or maybe it's because I'm more irritable than usual, and am not finding it easy to cope with these person(s). I also want to take some furniture restoration classes, and there are none to be found in the greater Reno area!!! Woe is me!

I do not feel immediate alleviation of my mild-depression symptoms now, so St John's Wort it is!
