mood:  restless music: Australian Cast - The Rum Tum Tugger
|
I do not like my state of mind; I'm bitter, querulous, unkind. I hate my legs, I hate my hands, I do not yearn for lovelier lands. I dread the dawn's recurrent light; I hate to go to bed at night. I snoot at simple, earnest folk. I cannot take the gentlest joke. I find no peace in paint or type. My world is but a lot of tripe. I'm disillusioned, empty-breasted. For what I think, I'd be arrested. I am not sick, I am not well. My quondam dreams are shot to hell. My soul is crushed, my spirit sore; I do not like me any more. I cavil, quarrel, grumble, grouse. I ponder on the narrow house. I shudder at the thought of men.... I'm due to fall in love again.
Only it's not a person I need to fall in love with. I need... a new fandom, a new obsession, something I can throw myself into. I'm spinning my wheels and writer's-blocked. I need that wonderful rush of excitement, that spark.
...what I need is a bit of hypomania that isn't my usual dysphoric hypomania, is what I'm really saying, I suppose. Fucking meds. |
