ADD(epression)
Can't focus, stuff sucks. Don't even really feel like writing about it. Three characteristics of my life right now:
1. Numb
2. Distracted
3. Going through the motions
This week has been especially difficult (what do you mean, it's only Tuesday?! -oops, it's actually Wednesday). Getting up and going in the morning is a struggle. I feel sore and unrested. Work goes by in an unproductive blur. I get home with the desire to be creative, but I feel like I haven't slept in years, and I end up spacing out and/or watching TV until way past my bedtime, which doesn't make any sense.
I tried to do some scrap booking last night, but I was disorganized and uninspired. I ended up making one mediocre page, which I will probably completely redo.
After that pathetic effort, I ended up just watching several episodes of Lost, which keeps getting stranger and stranger. The plot is thickening, as my Dad would say. I'm on episode 21 or 22 of season 2. Check out Hulu.com. It's great for catching up on old (and not-so-old) episodes of your favorite TV show.
Rocky is very agitated by the guinea pigs. I think he wants to sniff them and chase them, but they also scare him. Every little noise they make causes him to run to their cage and whine and look at me as if to ask "What in God's name ARE these creatures?!" I eventually had to put him in his crate last night because he was just too upset by them to relax.
It's already 11:30, and I've accomplished nothing today. Now I guess I'll go force myself to work out.

Christmas Photos
Henry, Rocky and I took the tripod to the Snake River Canyon visitors' center and took some photos to put in our Christmas cards. Here is a sneak peak:
We are major dorks. Henry got these matching hats for us at some promotion at his work. He's Bud, I'm Bud Light.
This is my favorite. Henry's making a weird face, but otherwise it turned out well.
Henry and Rocky love each other. I think this is a very good picture of the pair.
I love Rocky! He adds so much joy to my life.

More fun with Rocky
Rocky meets my friend's dog, Bear. 
Bear is lots of fun!!!
Bear is lots of fun!!!
Rocky does not know what he's supposed to do with the ball. Bear, on the other hand, knows exactly what to do with the ball.

Meet Rocky!
Meet the new addition to my family! Rocky is a chihuahua/shiba inu. I rescued him from an animal shelter in a nearby county. He's a great little guy! Gets along with everyone, is happy-go-lucky, walks well on the leash, and snuggles with me in my bed.

Yes We Did!!!
It's been two days now, and I still get excited and choked up all at once every time I think of it. I had completely lost faith in our government and country. I figured things were just going to go from pretty bad to a lot worse. Two nights ago, America proved me wrong. There is still hope, and there are a lot more Americans than I thought there were who believe in that hope and are ready to fight for it. Wow! Now I'm actually looking forward to the future of our country.
