Down In The Dumps

Today has been a weird day. Ever had one of those?

I've been a little out of sorts the last couple days, actually. DH has been great about it, and maybe it helps that I'm aware of my mood. I just don't know what the issue is.

Today is the perfect example. Church was good, I met with my finance guys and had a great meeting. I headed home in good spirits. I knew I wanted to work out and then go get a pedicure - a rare treat. I typically don't spend money on something I can do myself. My workout was good and the pedicure was amazing. I even met up with a friend and her little sassy-pants of a daughter for frozen yogurt.

But underneath it all I am kinda sad. I feel the urge to get out of town. Blow this popsicle stand. Burn some rubber. It doesn't matter really what you call it. Even wanderlust doesn't exactly describe it. I want to go somewhere and spend time with people who know me. I guess it's a little home sickness that crept up on me. I was just there last month, but I kind of just want to spend a weekend lying on my parents couch while we watch movies and eat junk food. I want to laugh with my dad and talk in movie quotes with my mom. And I want DH and all of my friends there too. In my mind, the living room is a lot bigger.

The reason that this really sucks is because it could be a lot of different things making me feel this way or influencing me to let me feel this way. I do believe the next two statements I am going to make. I believe that this could be Satan attacking me, stupidhead that he is. I do believe that maybe I'm not eating the right combination of things and am feeling a little under the weather to begin with. And it could be a combination of all of those things. I keep a pretty close tab on my emotional barometer and when it starts to tweak and spin there's a reason. I'm hoping this is all more related to blood sugar and diet, given the way my mood has been swinging around. Ask DH, he can attest to the lightening fast pendulum from happy go lucky to slightly morose. Maybe I've worked out too much and used all my endorphins for the next month?  Hmmm...anyone have a scientific research article pertaining to that theory?

Either way, if anyone has free airline miles they'd like to give up I'd gladly accept them. Pittsburgh, Dayton, Atlanta, Boston, Nashville and Las Vegas all sound good.
