A little time off

cootie.jpg
I'm going to take the rest of today off. I need to get away from the computer for a few hours. I haven't even left the apartment yet today, which makes me feel like I'm coated in the same goo that seems to cling to me when I'm depressed. And sometimes I worry that the mere suggestion of depression will pull me down into the real thing. Does that happen to you too?

I can't have these depression cooties on me. I have to get out of here. I'll see you all tomorrow.
