I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

does anyone else feel really disconnected right now?

A co-worker and I were just talking to each other about it, both feel out-of-sync. I know mac does and then another friend mentioned it also. Wondering if it is just the seasonal shift hitting us all hard this year or if just coincidence that were all a bit off with friends and associates/life.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

You mean more than usual? Yep.

For me, I think it's just the aftereffects of a crappy year, what with the moving and bugs and whatnot....

Trust my rage

You mean more than usual?

Yep, too. Not sure why - post Halloween sugar crash?

That was me in September; I'm kind of on the upswing now. My vacation really helped me.

I am pretty sure that any therapeutic benefits of my vacation have faded by now. I am mostly more bitter that I am not still on vacation.

But yeah, you could count me in the "disconnected" camp.

I've felt out-of-sync for a while now. But also stuck in a rut.

I think in my case it's a family trait of low-level depression, where our happiness level is somewhat below average (whatever that means - our perception of the norm, I guess), but steady. We don't get the major highs, but also not the crippling lows.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I've been in a rut all year long, but I think I'm finally getting past it. I've got my health decision made, my application in for school, and I'm finishing off my performance review self-evaluation today. The fact that I've stopped procrastinating on some things is making me feel much better about myself, to the point that I'm almost chipper!

Oh, I've been following the health care legislation debate - I know that's been depressing me too.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Count me in the disconnected crowd. Ever since I found out my office was closing I've been completely at sea.

Good luck Kathy!

I don't know if it's out of sync, but everyone at work seems to be in this strange low-energy place, even our boss. I am definitely struggling to get feel normal. I've been blaming it on this cold, which I can't entirely shake.
