I get depressed this time of year also. I've been sick with a bug for 3 weeks now, so that's not helping. I find a B complex vitamin is helpfull. Works fast, but you have to take 2 or 3 times a day as it goes through your system quickly.

you can tell how depressed I was - I made cauliflower for dinner. Just cauliflower. Only cauliflower. Oh, yes, I took some beano too. If it helps any, it was an orange cauliflower.

Does it taste better than white?

no, it tastes exactly like white, but it costs more so it must be better.

so, I'm trying to live through the holidays by keeping busy. Today I spent a couple of hours on my computer working - actually got some stuff done. Did some decluttering and took a couple of boxes to the thrift store - the guys there have become bosom buddies - they sing "the wells fargo wagon is a-comin' down the road, I wonder what it's bringing for me" whenever they see me. I will soon have no possessions. I walked through some stores for exercise, bought some w-2 and 1099 forms for the office, a new computer program, jogged around a huge movie theater parking lot for more exercise, had cauliflower for breakfast, toast for lunch and pasta for dinner - 1400 calories. I drove past the casino and thought up a sure-fire method for making money there, tried to figure out how I could move to Las Vegas and go to a different casino every day and get slowly rich off my money-making system. I talked with a friend who is seriously depressed. Talked with a friend who worked all day. Talked with my sister, ex-JW, who is at a New Year's eve party - she has gone so far in a year that she is actually at a New Year's Eve party at a gay guy's house. How far she has come in just a couple of years - I imagine the JWs in her town are rolling over in their graves. The dead ones, that is. The live ones are probably trying to figure out how they could DF her again for not killing herself the first time she was DF. I am confident that not a damn soul is going to read this, it is a dead dead thread, so I can freely ramble away. I am now in my nightgown, have eaten and fed the cats, it is only 6:30 and I don't know how I'll pass the evening. Want to stay away from the anxiety pills - but maybe I should take a couple and have a glass of wine. Did I ever tell any of you my system for long flights? I hate long flights, flying to China sucks because it take several flights and a long long time. My system is to take a valium and drink a gin as soon as I get on the plane. My doctor prescribes two valiums, one for going and one for returning. He thinks it's funny. He doesn't know about the gin. The problem is that I don't drink - I have one drink a year at Christmas, and I haven't been on any long flights since 1994. I have several bottles of champagne in the fridge, but they are very very old, god knows if there is any alcohol left in them. I also have a huge bin of wine bottles in the garage, remnants of married life, but they sat out in the garage over the summer with temperatures ranging to 120 degrees. So you can imagine how they must taste. And anyway, I don't like wine. I'm tempted to put the bin out by the curb, but it would be a mean surprise for the homeless people. Their lives are hard enough. Well, I guess I'll go look at the garage for a while.
