I jinxed myself. I was feeling great, and BAM! Depression did a drive-by on me yesterday. I probably should have expected it. Last year was the same. Fuck the holidays. Fortunately, I recognized the signs early and aborted that downward-spiraling line of thought. Only a few tears escaped their corral and leaked down my face.
Tonight, I am looking forward to NASA's Juno spacecraft doing a successful entry into Jupiter's orbit. Yes, that Jupiter -- the giant planet a gazillion miles away, which is why it took five years to get there. How cool is that? Looking up at the cosmos helps me to keep my insignificant problems in perspective.
(I don't know why the Ns are backwards in this picture. Don't let it detract from the message.) |
