#1320 ...when I'm feeling sad...

I'm sitting down to write tonight and I realized that I can't think of anything to say! I dipped into the BlogHer daily prompts for inspiration. I like the theme this month, JOY. Appropriate for the season and also lots of fun. I have a goal of finding some joy in every day, so it's a topic near to my heart. I'll probably be using some of these prompts throughout the month just because I think it's a great theme.

The prompt for December 4 is:

Who do you like to be with when you're feeling sad?

This may sound strange, but I prefer to be by myself when I feel sad. I don't think anyone needs to be around me when I'm unhappy because I pretty much just shut down and stop talking or being nice. Plus, I'm not a pretty cry-er. I should be alone when I'm crying. I'd just rather get the sadness out of my system and move on. Usually I lay on my bed for awhile and try to fall asleep. Everything seems better to me after a nap. I typically don't stay sad or mad for too long. I'm a Gemini and I really do have two sides to me.

I remember one time I was feeling kind of blue. We were in Spain and I don't remember what got to me, but I wasn't feeling very happy, so I went to a sidewalk bar that I liked and ordered a drink and just sat there watching the people go by. Pretty soon, I was chatting with the people at the table next to me and I was laughing and having fun and my sadness was forgotten. The lady I'd been talking to asked if I was a Gemini because she had watched my mood change. Weird. Isn't it funny how you remember random things sometimes?

We ordered pizza for dinner tonight and it's just been delivered! I'm going to go eat a slice or two while it's hot and delicious! Have a great night :)
