finding the happy

despite hannah's best efforts, i just could not get out of the funk yesterday. all i wanted to do was go home and self-medicate with massive amounts of sugar, but instead i somehow eeked out my very last bit of motivation and went to the gym instead. 

it's funny how my brain works. veruca knows that she is not allowed to talk this month, so that simply opened the door for some other crazy character. because suddenly i went from thinking about red vines and cinnamon oatmeal raisin ice cream to, hmmm, i wonder why they stopped making qualuudes. that was dumb!

for the record, i totally missed the qualuude era ~ i'm guessing by about 10 years. so where i came up with that is beyond me. i guess it just goes to show you how deep i was digging to find some way out of the hole.

but who needs 1970's pharmaceuticals when you have reality tely? because after a not-so-fun hour and half at the gym, i wasn't happy, but i was certainly happy that it was over. then driving home i remembered that million dollar listing was on (i heart madison!). and if that weren't enough, in some rare momement of live tv, i found myself on MTV, where aubrey/ robert/ donnie were hosting an hour of greatest moments of making the band. why, you ask? well because the new season starts on tuesday!!!! it was actually kind of sad how happy i was about this little announcement. 

but i guess when you're coming back from the depths of hell, it doesn't take much, does it?
