IrenicEmbers

A friend and I were in her car this morning, on the way from Jack-in-the-Box (I know, it's the last thing I need) and we were talking about birth control. She said that they've done wonders for her mood and that ever since turning 20, she's been less moody.

She considers 20 old.

I guess it placed into perspective my usual lament about, "I'm too old for this shit."

20 is not old. And neither is 27.

Moods though, my God. What a clusterfuck that is. I've been weepy and irritated and just unbearable for weeks now. I know that's whats driving my recent feelings and actions. Sucks big fat monkey nuts. This evening I nearly had a total cryfest because I was home alone and it's flippin' frigid in the apt. But that's not the reason. I was looking at baby pictures and all I wanted to do was call my mother and weep.

But, as we all know, weeping never solves anything.
