one moody bitch

stress does funny things to a person.

some mornings i wake up and i'm all gung-ho and excited about the adventure to come. then 15 minutes later i'll be griping about something and close to tears. an hour later i'm joking and singing to myself.

if i could predict the moods that would be one thing, but they seem to just come out of nowhere.

ugh, i'm exhausted.

Xta, Xta, Xta: You're going through a ginormous life change here--it's perfectly normal to have lots of emotions going on. Cut yourself some slack, and be kind to yourself.

xoxo!

Yeah, what Minty said!

My friend John once told me that the four biggest life stressors were (I'm not sure of order):

moving
new job
new kid
marriage

You've got the first two, and changes with Ray may well seem on the order of (or in the emotional zone of) the last, so, to use words in a different context, "Go ahead. Be that way."

to follow-on to phil's comment, hey, at least you're not pregnant! ;)

one word of advice from someone who is often as moody as you describe: strategic use of booze. not in excess, just periodically to relieve stress.

i guess compared to phil and minty, i'm your "bad girl" friend :)

wine has become one of my best friends. it doesn't care that i'm leaving and it always makes me feel good about my decision. :)

you should feel good about your decision! while I will miss you very much, I think this is an awesome opportunity that cannot be passed up. you are totally doing the right thing and I admire you for it! and you know what? things evolve over time. you never know what may happen down the line. everything is mutable :-)
