In a depressing funk.

AllAboutTheBenjamin · June 2010

So I haven't been around for a few days, and I'm back at work today after being home for my grandfather's funeral.

It was very sad, of course - but it went so well. A very fitting tribute to a very classy gentleman.

I'm just struggling to stay focused at work or care much about anything else.

Can someone just smack me into being a little more upbeat, at least for today? I'm going to the gym tonight (damn all the comfort potato and pasta funeral salads!) and I have barely any energy at all.

i think you should just let it be. its fine to still be sad at the moment, take your time.

I'm sorry for your loss.

As far as your funk goes, this always makes me feel better:

I'm sorry you're having a rough time. Do you want to swordfight?

AllAboutTheBenjamin · June 2010

Cew, I would especially love to swordfight. Engarde!

Ease up on yourself a bit, you've just had a loss. Or, you could swordfight with cew.

Good idea, Cew. A good swordfight always cheers me up.

It's okay to be sad. I was sad for like a week after my great-grandparents died.

But, I give you a picture of Whisky to feel better. You can't help but smile at this fat ball of fur!

Aw - your cat is adorable, Seshat.

Animals can be so funny in how they can sense the emotions of their owners. My family's dog was acting so weird while I was home - usually he's jumping on people and terrorizing the cats and being wreckless but he was actually pretty subdued. And I thought it was pretty cool that he stayed pretty close to my dad (it was my father's father who passed), as if to kind of be there for him in a way.

Yeah, I think they can sense stuff like that. Whisky comes into the bedroom for his nightly treats then sleeps out in the living room and wiggles around if you try to keep him on the bed. But when my great-grandma died a few weeks ago he cuddled up against me and swiped at DH when he tried to pick him up, which he NEVER does. Same thing when great-grandpa died last week, he laid across my stomach and didn't let DH move him.
