i made it out of the house -- showered, flossed and more or less ready to face the day -- while it was still morning.

this makes three days in a row. (if i'd gotten out between 12 and 1, i was prepared to tell myself that, since we're now using daylight savings time, i had technically still made it.)

i'm fighting off depression and the resultant inactivity. last night, i was walking on the coney island boardwalk, feeling sorry for myself. (it's a good place to feel that way.) i gotta say, the astroland fireworks and my friends' burlesque show made me feel a lot better.

but . . .

now, it's today.

there's lots i wanna do.

but a part of me just wants to stay rooted to this spot.
