Thanks all for the replies. The day for me is almost half-way done and so far so good though it felt like time went by quick and some family members did not show up this year for Thanksgiving lunch. Not as much questioning/criticizing about my life (a good thing). I tried to leave early but an aunt told me to stay telling me "it's not like you have anything to do".

Tonight Thanksgiving dinner at my parents. More or less i'm left alone.

I read a post that said about sensitivity to noise- I think i'm like that if i'm stressed out, otherwise i tune it out.

I try to stay in my apt but it's sort of empty *literally*. I'm moving out and there's stuff here in boxes and stuff in storage. It looks like an attempt to order chaos and the noise from my neighbors upstairs and their dogs barking does not help-one of the reasons behind the move.

Overall I think perhaps i'm out of whack a bit due to depression and the lack of structure (the moving) and my routine has been changed due to the holidays. I will try to watch more of my dvds, recorded shows that let me fast-forward and listen to my ipod more. And perhaps hang out at the gym more.
