Loc: the wabe

They actually had three different color camis. Blue, lavendar, and beige. But I always wear boxers in the summer and sweatpants in the winter so I'd feel super-silly wearing this clingy lacy camisole with my navy-blue cotton boxers. Although maybe for a self-confidence boost I need to overhaul my sleep/loungewear. It's pretty easy to feel like a crummy old rag when you're wearing brillo-green sweatpants and a ratty T-shirt with chocolate stains.

I think you're dead-on about the therapy, but I'm hesitant to go do it. Not sure why, exactly. I'm sure there is some screwed-up reason for it, and just another reason why I need to go. I'm switching insurance at the beginning of the year so maybe at that point I'll go. I sort of like to work things out internally. I do feel better when I talk to someone, but it's only a sort of superficial feeling better. Sort of like tossing a new tablecloth onto an old table that really ought to be sanded down and restained. OK, so, that is sort of a bad analogy in terms of emotions, because I don't think anyone wants her psyche scrubbed and stained. Anyway. You're right. I should look into it.

I don't want to do the AD thing. I tried Elavil for my IBS and I HATED the effect it had on me. I don't want to take anything that messes with my mind unless it's really really necessary. Plus, I am actually not that depressed -- in a clinical sense, I mean. Just your normal sad/angry/mixed-up sort of emotions you get when you're down. I think ADs can be great and even life-savers for people, but at this point in my life I don't think they are really going to help me.

OK, so now I am off to eat my Cool Whip.
