Ever move 3,000 miles on a week's notice with a baby, two cats a car and a bunch of crap? Yeah it sucks..
HA! I can relate. I got married, went on my honeymoon,packed up everything we both owned and moved 1500 miles away all within a week.
While ON THE ROAD..the mortgage company was calling telling us that they needed more paperwork they forgot to ask for and the mortgage might not go through because of it.
I was literally throwing up blood on the trip down from stress.
Looks like I may be forced to get up and do something. I may very well have to fly to LA tomorrow on a moments notice to shoot. I HATE that. I am not the type that thinks spontaneous things that big are an adventure...I'm practically hyperventilatng over it.....

Cam, I feel ya more than you know. I never suffered any sort of depression until I was in my mid-twenties and I'm actually going through a down phase right now. For the past week or so, I just don't want to go anywhere. Like someone else said (I can't remember who); it's a struggle to even go to the grocery store. Yup, I'm guilty of living on pizza deliveries, fast food and gas station food. Sad, sad sad.
It's like I've become a complete introvert and recluse (which I'm not) and have been avoiding my friends too when they call me to hang out and do things. Doing even the most trivial things takes SO much effort and my depression ultimately wins out in the end.
Then I get even MORE depressed because I'm not doing anything and am missing out on life. Vicious cycle. I can't even make myself go Christmas shopping fer crying out loud! And this is something that I always love to do.
For example, by bf wants some movies that just came out and Wal-Mart is 3, yes I said THREE miles from my house. I had to go to the gas station today to buy some cigs and they had a few of them for sale. (I thought to myself, oooh just get 'em here then I won't have to go anywhere else..) I ended up not getting them because of course they were a lot more expensive. Then I was like, wait- Amazon.com! They deliver! ::)
It looks like we have a lot of supportive gals here-I was surprised how many of y'all are going through the exact same thing. It's so nice to be able and talk to people who know exactly what you're going through and can empathize.
Hopefully we'll all get out of our funks soon!
Here's a big :grouphug: to all of you!
