Another month dies while I still don't. Great.

I seem to be winning over the cold, but I still feel crappy from the cold, so "winning" isn't quite the right word to use.

Or the fog may not be lifting.

I hate having depression.

The fog may be lifting.

I have been less depressed the past three or four days, and that's a huge change. And I'm pleased to see it. This has been a rough run of depression.

But of course since nothing can ever just be good news, I have a nasty Summer cold that has gotten worse as my depression has gotten better. IT's very unpleasant.

Lucky me.

Tired but passed the AFTR test with great scores last night. That's something at least.

I had a pleasant dinner with my friend Chris from Chicago along with his spouse Simone and their wonderful son Quincy. I haven't seen Chris in a few years and this was the first time to finally meet Simone and Quincy. It was a wonderful time, and while I wish I could have spent even more time with them, it was great they even stopped in Toledo on their trip at all, just to see me, so I truly appreciate it.

I need more shining moments like this in my life.

Fighting this depression is nearly impossible. I haven't given up trying, but it's ridiculous how much of a struggle I have to put up.

What next?

With this much new stuff to fuel my depression, why should I expect the unpleasant surprises to stop? That's not how my life works at all.

So what's next? What horrible shit does the universe have in store for me next?

Hot, sweaty, depressed to the point of feeling oppressed, and with a massive headache that won't go away. THis seems to be the new normal. Lucky me.

Of course.

Of course they would change the management arrangements at HRB for the coming year such that where there were 26 spots last year there will now be 13. Dandy.

Of course.
