Apr. 30th, 2007 09:22 amI worked at the art dept. monitor job last night from 8p-midnight and got some writing done. It seems that if there's anything that will make me work on the writing, it's looming exams that I should be studying for.
Today is my physiology final - no huhu, since I'm retaking it this summer. Wednesday night is my nutrition final and Thursday is anatomy and organic chemistry.
I was talking to Mike and realized aloud that I have been much more sane this year than last year when he was in Iraq. This is my insanity: I become unmindful, approaching what would normally be some problem that I can handle and simply not dealing with it until I am overwhelmed by the resulting chaos.
Then I must do something. Often the something has only passing or collateral effect on the problem, but doing something is the important thing. Often the doing something involves spending or giving away large sums of money. IANA psychologist, but I think that this is hypomania. (bipolar, depression and weird mania-stuff runs in my family) Two things are different this year compared to the year before -- I see Mike for a weekend every two or three weeks, and school keeps me very focused and mindful.
