That's an interesting idea, Daisy. I hadn't thought of it. I guess I wouldn't have thought of it, though, since I feel like such a pathetic loser. In fact, I didn't even remember feeling proud of myself for any reason lately, so thanks for reminding me.I guess somewhere between "I'm a pathetic, unlovable, failure at life" and the Helen Reddy song, there's a place where I can be sometimes capable, sometimes less so, sometimes vincible, sometimes not, and generally a human being, teetering on the seesaw of life.
I did realize that the car had something to do with it -- it's like a focal point for a lot of my angst. We talked about that in therapy today.
