Le sigh.
Today isn't a great day. I woke up sleep deprived because my inability to get to sleep at a reasonable time got the better of me. Then I came to work only to have to say goodbye to the person who has probably become my closest work friend. Another friendship is starting to fall apart, and there doesn't seem to be anything that I can do to fix it.
I'm feeling incredibly overwhelmed by the amount of work and non-work WORK that I have to do. And of course I'm feeling more and more and more anxious about my mom's health. Despite what her doctor keeps saying, I don't see any signs of improvement.
And then when I decide to finally stop ignoring yet another whole universe of people, I see something that I really wish I hadn't, because I think it's ruined my day even further.
And on top of all that, my friend's dad had a stroke and is in the hospital, and I feel almost as though he's my own dad. And just like with my mom, I feel completely helpless and ineffective.
I'm just having a really, really, really bad day, and I want nothing more than to curl up in my bed and go to sleep and let the rest of the day drift away.

All Good Things Must Come to an End
Despite my mom being sick, I've enjoyed quite a few weeks of relatively upbeat spirits. That's over, though, and I feel a wave of sadness overtaking me, and as much as I'm trying to fend it off, I can't.
And what stinks is that I saw it coming. There have been a couple of developments over the last couple of weeks that have combined to make me feel so blue. And I suppose all I can do now is just ride it out. These things always pass. The only question is, how long will it take?

More Phanatic Around Town, Philadelphia International Airport
I've had these photos for a couple of weeks, but I hadn't gotten around to posting them. Many thanks to Jaime and Tara who were kind enough to photograph the Phanatic (separately), since it was inside the concourse. Without further ado...
