Normality Strikes

I've been so busy lately, I forgot when I got normal. I can't explain it, except that I feel normal. Not too good, not bad, just average. This is what normal people must feel like. This just sneaked up on me, and I can't figure out when it was that this happened. Or why it suddenly happened. I think it's a combination of a) a drug cocktail that's finally working, b) seeing a therapist who is actually helping, and c) being in a good place workwise, schoolwise and homewise. And cake. I think the cake is helping a lot. You can't have too much cake. Well, you can, but a nice piece of cake once in a while does wonders for the morale. I like white cake with "buttercream" frosting once a week, and that's a good thing.

If I could tell what's made me suddenly normal, I'd bottle it, because it feels wonderful. I felt down last week, when I was suddenly hit with the summer flu, but that was understandable (nothing drags you down like clogged sinuses). For everyone out there, I say: Hang on. It will get better. Sooner or later, you just have to be there, waiting for it.
