Summer Day 8

I forgot to set my alarm but still woke up before the next alarm (at 8). But not too much earlier. Was quite lazy actually getting out of bed though. Finished dishes, ate lunch and found out the dishwasher is back to not draining. Very frustrating.

Went to work. Air quality is abyssal (AQI > 220 basically all day) so there's a nice smokey haze over everything but it doesn't bother me too much. Did some work at the office but not as much as I should have. Played Catan (it is a Wednesday after all). Continued to do work poorly (I'll actually get up when my alarm goes off and finish writing). Realized that I was feeling pretty down and took a walk. Workedish some more (and troubleshooted computer problems. It's time to retire this one, really). Went over to the Union for open mic night. Listened to the crazy guy give advice while eating a burger. And some singers. It was inside because of the smoke. Went outside for the sunset but couldn't even see the sun. Oh well. Got a picture to compare to last week's (still hazy) picture. Went home.

Did some more work at home. And talked with people. Wrote this. Will go to bed soon.

Like I said, I definitely felt more down today than I have in a while. No real reason either. Bottom end of euthymic maybe? I dunno. Probably also related to the fact I feel tired all the time, despite fairly consistently getting 6-7+ hours of sleep these past few days (and today was certainly 7+ uninterrupted). So I guess the calm has ended, I'll probably be dysthymic for a week or two more and then get like a month + of respite? That's how these things tend to go. At least this is very much just a dysthymic down. I don't feel horrible. I don't feel like crying all the time. But I'm not happy, or even content, yannow?
