Because I am going through some rough times, a list of things that are good right now:
Awesome job interview Fri morning, hot new clothing, playing a show tonight (in-the-round style) in Audubon NJ, my bandmate's getting married on Sat, playing a song shuffle (50 artists, one night) on Fri night as part of the Fringe festival, playing at GreenFest Philly (a huge event greenfestphilly.org) on Sunday, and I now have a card in my wallet and a certficate saying I'm a board certified health professional.

Strength and support to you. I have to say, if you're already capable of seeing through it even enough to acknowledge the good things that are going on, you're going to be fine ♥
It sounds like you're on the right track so I hope things get better. If not, we'll go drinking, that fixes EVERYTHING.
-j, I am hugging you from afar. Thanks for that.
Corey, what seems to be the trouble? I'm not a doctor. But I can nutritionally nourish your well-being!
FiZ, I don't drink alcohol. My only vice is coffee. But you drink or we can have crazy shots of espresso til we puke! (ugh, no, two suits me fine)
PS Fiz, thanks. When are you coming here again? Should I know this?
@Aleigh: So you're a coffee gal, eh? I'm a little more hardcore than that you see, I'm all about tea. I'm working on making some travel plans as soon as I get back into a job with vacation time. I start a week from Monday, then I'll start planning.
I want to take her on a sweet romantical date, just like last night.... we even fed each other.
Cat, I misssssss you! Hangouts, plz.
Aleigh, I continue to be wowed by you. And very proud to call you my friend.
Another one for your list:
Many people on the internet (and irl) love the stuff out of you and want to see many more good GREAT things in your future.
And if for some reason things get bad before they get worse, I know a lot of people would be there for you, myself included. ♥
Cat & Michelle, we will go on a romantical date soon I hope.
Michelle, I hope to continue to make you proud. Last night at that show, I think I was a strong cookie.
Fiz, I know more about tea than I do coffee. My preferences are jasmine pearl, straight up green, rooibos, and when the throat gets sore- something with licorice root.
@Aleigh: I tend to stick with blends of white, green or rooibos though I do enjoy chamomile. I've been getting kinda adventurous though and trying the pu erh teas. Those are unique, but definitely not a taste that everyone gets into.
bizzy, that is an incredibly kind thing to say and it means a lot to know you care. I wish we got to hang out more!
Libi, love you too babe. hugs.
jesse, you are awesome too babe.
Fiz, I'll write you soon. I am getting ready for my job interview now so I can look super fly!

You may think it is hard to be sad with all this going on, but it's going to take time to not be a sad bum too. I am very lucky to have the best friends a girl could dream of and a sweet supportive family for sure.
