Finally! A blog post that won't make you cringe to read!

I've managed to pull myself out of the dark depths of depression, through a combination of pushups, DDR, going to Louisville, sushi, and my male ability to cast off emotions when I get sick enough of them.

That's right. I'm not that depressed right now. Pack up the kids and kerosene heaters, the world must be ending.

But anyway. Got up at 9.30 and went to Louisville with Venus, her sister Val, Val's friend Ethan and their dad. Went to an organic grocery (I know, sounds strange, but bear with me), and I tried sushi *and* sashimi (at least, I think that shrimp was raw) both for the first time. I also got some weird organic peach tea which I started off kind of questioning but I'm liking more and more every time I take a drink.

They were also having a chili cookoff at the grocery store today. So lots of free chili samples. It was all good, but the best was chili soup with noodles and stuff. It was kind of sweet. Everyone else liked the reigning champion's, though, but I voted for the sweet stuff. Yum.

We went to the pro bass shop in clarksville after that, and we just walked around. And this place is gargantuan. Three floors, 46,000 gallon fish tank, huge laser-rifle range (you put in 50 cents and get 25 chances to hit little targets placed throughout the range), a putting green, 3 elevators, a starbucks... It's insane. You can spend hours. We did.

Came home... This is when I decided that instead of moping I am actually going to do something. So I did pushups and crunches. Then the post-exercise tiredness was maldistributed... all upperbody. So I played DDR. Now I ache a tiny bit all over. And I feel a lot better, too.

Man, this tea is starting to taste really good.

Ima, kono cha wa umai desu yo.

I'm just in a japanese sort of mood, I guess.

EDIT: Because Kaisha asked, I posted on my poetry blog. Link on the sidebar, you know the drill.

P.S, yes, this is not exactly parallel to the mood portrayed here. I wrote it a week or two ago and only bothered to post it today. No worries.
