I should say something here about the Bengals beating the Browns today, but sports aren't exactly a real pressing priority for me right now. (I know, I know, I owe you all a discussion on my feelings about the Red Wings' upcoming season, and I'll try to get to that before the start of the season.)
I don't really have a way of doing a "nawty filter" here, so anyone who might be interested in knowing about my latest acquisition in that regard, IM me.
With a few weeks left to go in summer break I finally felt like I was making some good progress on a personal level, but now I think all my progress in those areas has disappeared on me. Being away from campus on Thursday nights, not having the support system I used to have in Spectrum (even as tenuous as that was in my final weeks with the group), has become harder and harder to deal with each week. Especially as I'm going through all these new experiences as a teacher, I really need people to talk to here just to help me work these things out, and now I don't really have anyone to talk to. I'm not even sure there's any use in trying to restart Un/Gagged at this point.
All of my Internet friends are super-busy now as well, so I haven't even had anyone to talk to in that regard. This has all just left me feeling incredibly lonely and depressed, and I'm not coping with those feelings as well as I used to. I can guarantee you that I won't be going back on my diet here at least until next week, and all I really want to do right now is stay here in bed and hope that things will get better on their own, because I just don't have the strength at this point to try to make things better on my own.
