Day 223: What does a blue you do?

I've discovered, and now you may map my emotional trends, that I don't blog when I'm blue. I forget. I avoid. I don't. 
I recognize the danger in this. The spiral.

Blue=No Blog
Blog=Happy
Outside Factor Causes Blueness
Blue=No Blog=No Happy


So, I must find a cure for blue...something to do, that counters blue--so I can blog.  But not every 'do' cures 'blue'
I've compiled two lists to organize my possibilities:
1) Can Do When Blue (not necessarily positive, merely doable) &
2) When Blue, Can't Do


Can Do When Blue                                                      

Paint without constraint
Scrub & Sweep & Stack
Eat Svensk Punschrulle
Shower: 'sad showers'
Hard Drive Maintenance & a very satisfying 'Empty Recycle Bin'
Run, like a crazy person
Sleep: 'stress sleep'
Listen to Danish Rap or absolutely any Cat Power album.
Make obsessive lists


When Blue, Can't Do

Blog
Study...anything
Read Grandpa's book, it just wouldn't be right.
Cook (oh wait that's all the time...)
Promptly return texts or phone calls
Take Photos
Accomplish listed items



And there I stand. Luckily, I don't mind the downs 'cuz I know I'll come up.
I don't know why I'm avoiding personal photos or videos.
Here's something that is not me, but what I happen to be trudging through (instead of studying).



Nothing says, 'Happy Monday' like: The Corporation
