thought for the day

[ironymaiden]

i forgot that without artificial hormones, PMS makes me maudlin. i'm not sure that being unable to send C to Gen Con is a viable trigger for a critique of what i've done with my life for the past ten years, but there i was last night, in tears, feeling trapped and ineffective, yet blaming myself for everything i could think of. not that it's all invalid, but stupid hormones. at least i'm not mean, nor do i suffer cramps. just tears and acne.

*sigh*

I'm right there with you, girlfriend. Today's bout of the blues, for which I solicited cheer-me-up posts on LJ, started with the following thoughts:

I not slim enough.

I'm not hip enough to be loved by the men I really want (and if it's any consolation, you were one of the Way-Hipper-Than-Me women I was being all jealous of)

I'm good enough to sleep with but not be true lovers with.

It all sucks.

Mostly, though, hormones are what sucks. You're certainly not alone.

oh stop it. i am so not hip. but thanks.

and you are beautiful in a way that i'll never achieve. i think you've got a great shape and an excellent sense of style and knowledge about how to show yourself off.

and i believe that you have an opportunity right now to concentrate on yourself in a way you have not for years. you are definitely good enough for someone that will be there when you are ready. or maybe a little before you think you're ready. but i don't think you need rush there.
