Even when I can bring myself to be grateful for the deeper compassion depression has brought me, I resent the pain it brings.
Yes. It's so weird, I was giving myself a pep talk this morning to get myself in the car and then to work and I thought to myself, WTF is wrong with me? Why is everything always so hard to get done? I can do stuff, and in a fairly efficient and normal-looking manner (thanks to half decent medication), but it is exhausting. Every day.
Which is to say, {{{Bitches}}}.
I forgot to say earlier, I could definitely use a round of the productivity game.

Totally this! Like, right now I have a huge sinkful of dirty dishes, because the drain from the dishwasher's backed up (hence, plumber) and I know I have to have that sink clear for him to look at, and yet the dishes have been piling up unwashed since Thursday. Why didn't I just wash them? I dunno. So now, an hour before he's supposed to arrive, I'm trying to wash a bunch of dishes at the same time I'm proofreading 45 articles due to press tomorrow. Oh, yeah, I could've been doing that since Thursday too. WTF is wrong with me?
eta Wow, that sounds like I'm flaking off at work. In my own defense, I'm not. I meant I could have done it over the weekend, which was my birthday, so... no.

Emeline was bored and driving me crazy asking me when her playdate is getting here (2:00).
She is now scrubbling the kitchen floor.
