Okay...let's get the mopey stuff out for a bit.

Some things were discovered the past two days that actually buoyed my mood back up.

-I got a 90/100 on my term paper intro. Finally looked at the grade for this, as I had seen all sorts of red on the preview and said, "Ehhh...I dun wanna!". Professor said I write pretty well.

-Got my tax returns deposited into my bank account. No spending spree till I beat the depression, though. Shopping while blue is a BAD idea.

-beat the original content in Guild Wars 2. By myself. Again.This is both a happy and a depressing. Happy cause I did it again...depressing cause I had to do it alone, again.

See, I have a friend who plays this game. They're the one that actually got me into the game. And, well...they got a little upset when I told them that I'd beaten the big boss of the original content on my own. Solo. Just my character and a bunch of NPC's.
So, the next time I got to that point (oddly, with my original character), I told them, "Hey, I'm at that point where I'm ready to tackle the big boss again. Did you want to come with, since you kinda called me nuts for soloing him last time?"
They said, "Sure! I'll contact you when I get home and we'll do that run."

That was a week ago Thursday.
...
So yesterday, I decided to say "Fuggit". I waited to see if they popped up in the game...and then, at 9:45pm, I started.
...
I was done by 11:15pm.
...
What I just described was also a factor in the depression: my friend vanishing on me, with no explanation.
...
But, that was then. Now, I have a second character who took down Big Daddy Z (Zhiatan, I think is the spelling). Only...seven more to go. chuckles
