Now, Onward. I have been depressed as of late. It is ridiculous. The people I love are going through a lot right now but I, personally, am not. I believe it is tied to the Chantix I have been taking to quit smoking. I have sad dreams, wake up and am irritable all day at work, come home and am so miserable to be so far away from my fiancée that I end up getting snippy on Skype. It makes no sense at all. It is only a 3 month treatment, and I am 20 days in. I know I can make it, damn it, but I hope she can. I have been a nonsmoker for the last thirteen days and am hoping I smell better :)
Any who, tonight is the first night all week where I felt okay. I went to work this morning, but I mostly drove to various places. I did a home inspection and went to talk to the owner of a local doggy daycare. By the time I got back to work there was only one employee left since the snow had scared the rest off. We closed up the shelter and rescued a freezing kitty. Really, it was a very successful, beautiful, and productive day.
I loved listening to music too loud while watching the snow fall, and I loved running around the yard snapping pictures of my dogs. I also had a great time on Skype--playing games, answering riddles, reminiscing, and saying all that stuff that would make other people nauseated if they had to overhear it. Now, I am up and reading, relaxing, and planning my weekend.
The only problem is that I really need to get to sleep. I am seeing all the Facebook posts about all the people stranded in the snow around Georgia, and I am quickly realizing that I will, in fact, be working tomorrow. There is no way there is going to be enough staff at the shelter tomorrow. Friends are stuck at 24 hour businesses, their mothers are stuck in their cars on icy roads, children are stuck on buses or in nearby buildings away from their families, there have been over 600 accidents. For some reason, I really did not expect all this. I know a lot of people are making fun of the South right now, and I get it, but there are still people out there in serious need of help so let's hold back for a little bit and hope that everyone is going to be okay overnight. And wish me luck getting to work tomorrow morning because their are some pups in serious need of a good pee and some breakfast!
