today's weather: S L I G H T E L E V A T I O N
anxiety : 1
agitation : 1
I've absented myself from the blogosphere for a month and a half, primarily because I was away at some other country and I wanted to savor my trip (The rather lengthy absence is also partially due to the difficulty of finding a good connection where we were, and the resolution to prove that I ain't no slave to my blogging habit).
Besides, it's quite consistent with myself to hardly ever post new entries whenever I feel good. So it's often a positive sign when I don't post anything new - it likely means I am pleasantly preoccupied with something I enjoy.
And enjoy myself I did. I was in a good NORMAL/BASELINE stretch with occasional symptoms of depression. The trip to Nevada and Southern California proved beneficial for me, and it successfully lifted me out of the depressive round I was scheduled to have.
Currently, I feel an elevation looming. Today I feel uncannily alert, faith-filled, cheerful and energetic - despite the pain-medication-slash-relaxant I've been taking for my impinged nerve (early carpal tunnel syndrome) that the rheumatologist assures will make me drowsy. Well I do feel slightly drowsy, but I otherwise feel great.
