I found your blog through the Apron Stage and I love it! I'm studying English as well, so I love that aspect of your blog as well as the humor aspect. The main reason I am leaving you a comment is to say that when I don't shower, I have bad days too. Something about the dirty hair and the day-old deodorant residue in my armpits gets to me. Great post.<br /><br />AndeAndehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02234039085261714673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4303081661018618258.post-24582320460960990502009-04-21T12:21:00.000-04:002009-04-21T12:21:00.000-04:00Andrew, mom always tells us about the power of wor...Andrew, mom always tells us about the power of words. If you keep saying something over and over, eventually you believe it. Maybe you have just convinced yourself this is true about the showering. Although the days I shower I have good days (because I am confident that I am looking fine) and then the second day I feel crappy. Then the third day (because sadly there is often a third day I am dirty)I feel great again! I think this is because I have moved into the "yeah, I am dirty, don't judge me" phase, where I am somewhat confident again.Mary Arlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07136740449605413672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4303081661018618258.post-78212721083614742482009-04-21T10:36:00.001-04:002009-04-21T10:36:00.001-04:00I meant Drew.

Sometimes it isn't the events in my day that crummy it up; sometimes it's the realization that... well... huh. Usually it's the depression talking (look into that, would you?!), but sometimes it's just that I'm zoned out and when I come back, I'm not interested in my current reality. So all reality starts feeling sucky.<br /><br />Hey, did you get all nostalgic cuz of Mamaw and Papaw and it threw you off? Charlotte cried about it in her bed today. Claire cried about it in the car last week. I almost cried about it today while reminiscing on the trip to Nauvoo I took with Pap, Mom, and Charlotte when Char was only 9 months old.<br /><br />Oh! And LOTS of times a day starts great and then I get the perception that I made myself look like a fool in some situation, and then my self-esteem plummets (especially on days when I didn't shower or change clothes or maybe brush my teeth or when I've let Gabe run around the front yard in his diaper while the neighbors look on in shock.) Hey - what does the Chicago book of style say about the period in a sentence that ends in a parenthesis? Inside or outside?<br /><br />I know what you need.
