feeling sad
I’m feeling sad right now so instead of eating something gooey and chocolately I thought I would write about it. A lot has been going on but what set it off is that I had a rough day at school today and then I got an email from a friend of mine complaining about how the Democratic party is basically ruining everything in the world. Normally I just delete her political emails but today it really made me mad because I haven’t heard from her in quite a while, including when my son had a siezure and nearly died. In a fit of anger I replied to her email, basically saying that if she doesn’t want to be in touch for things that are important that I don’t want her to send these mass emails to me anymore. I did allow for the fact that she may not know what to say but just told her that I’m sick of reading her political crap that she likes to send.
After calming down I still am ok with sending the message because I have felt this way for a while. I know it also has to do with the fact that I haven’t heard from my brother (and my son’s godfather) since he was in the hospital but yet he still finds the time to send my husband several stupid jokes every day. The time will come where I bring it up with him, too.
Already I feel better. The rest of the night may be a bit tough because this is the evening my husband has class so I have both kids on my own. But the 2-hour Biggest Loser is on tonight so that should keep my focus. Somehow I can’t binge eat when I’m watching a program about people making healthy changes. I just wish it was on 24 hours/day.
I know EXACTLY what you mean and you’re right to get pissed off. Even more so when it’s not just jokes, but rather political (or religious) point of view — uninvited. I definately take issue with those ones, regardless whether I agree or not. I have a few who have sent me nothing but for the past three years. I just delete them. They’ll get a response from me when I get a decent email from them. Hasn’t happened yet… and ya know… my life has gone on just fine.
