"In winter you must have been barely alive"

So. I feel like life is slowly on the uptick. Here's the (veggie)beef.

* I started going to therapy--frankly because Fernando wanted me to. But that's cool, I think therapy can be good for anyone, if you like your therapist. I think she's lovely. She's very empathetic, but also very professional. And laughs a lot. So far she's just gotten background info from me, so talking about my childhood and family and such. Which has only reinforced in my mind that I had a good childhood for the most part, and love my family a ton.

* I had one job interview a few weeks back, through a friend. I have another one next week--a second interview, actually. Spring's coming which means my job is going to go crazy soon (taking in donated goods during spring cleaning / moving season. You can imagine.)

* And I finally figured out the plot of my novella!

A lot of TV shows are ending, which either means time to pick up some new(old) ones, or time to watch less TV and work on my book.  ;-)  ...Or clean my home.  >:-(

And overall winter is lifting, and my spirits have lifted along with it. And I love the symbolism inherent in spring--life after death, renewing ourselves.

Song of the Day: My friends Vidal and Onthatmidnightstreet are having a baby. And some of the reactions they've been having reminded me of this song from Carousel. (And who knew the cutie from Foyle's War and Downton Abbey could sing!)
