... though the doomy-gloomy stuff is hovering. Went to visit a client in Kew yesterday, and took some time to walk in the Botanical Gardens, sniffing flowers hugging trees etc. Black Mood pursued me like a commission-only door-to-door salesperson:

Mood: Stop smiling! Angst! Angst!
Me: Shut up. The crocusses - or more correctly, crocii - are blooming, hundreds of thousands of them, and the sun is shining.
Mood: Angst! Doom! Gloom!
Me: Oh, bugger off, do.

Client is very splendid. Most of what I was doing was a sort of therapeutic hand-holding (and advising on keyboard shortcuts) while she prepared and CD'd a document about Amazonian deforestation. Since it all overran, she insisted I stay for fish'n'chips and a nice bottle of red. It's good to feel useful!

Worst thing about doomy-gloomy stuff is that it isn't for anything: I'm not depressed about anything in particular, and in fact life is going as smoothly as seems sensible. If I were miserable about something, I could wallow, weep, and wail. As it is, have to keep slamming the door in its face and remaining blithely cheerful in the face of the evidence the Black Mood. I don't have time for this at the moment!


Many thanks for supportive comments, e-hugs and good things in the email: I may sometimes feel I don't deserve such good friends, but I do appreciate you all very, very much.
