03/16/2002 Entry: "Self-Loathing, or Low Blood Sugar."

So it's about 5:30 in the morning, and I'm huddled in front of my computer, cold, tired, lonely, and half-dazed, bulling my way through yet another of a seemingly endless series of HTML pages for my site revamp and screwing up as often as I do something right.
And a slow and kind of sad song starts playing on the CD that I'm listening to, and by the end of it I'm in a thorough funk, the kind that starts with 'boy, this is pointless' and winds up being a fear-induced reassessment of my entire life and where it's going.
You know how it goes.

And then I realize that, you know, two hours ago I ate a miniscule handful of taffy on an empty stomach and maybe right now a snack would be nice. So I put on a jacket and went to the local fastfoodery and got far too much grease at the drive-through and came home and devoured it all.

Now I feel fine. Happy, even. Still cold and tired and a bit lonely, but... hey. Grease!

I love food. It's so good to me.

I promise to stop being random and blog properly after this damn revamp is finished.

Sometimes randomness is good.
It's one of the things I REALLY love about your Blog, Moon, and always have. :3
Hopefully your HTMLing will be better as you progress. I wish I could say the same for my skills that don't exist...I have had books from work about the stuff that I have read and skimmed over, and followed directions EXACTLY...and a lot of my stuff STILL did not work... Auy.. So just rememebr that there are plenty people worse than you are, no matter what you think of your own skills.
I have felt similar emotions lately that you have felt too, Moon, although probably for very different reasons....
