I spoke to my best friend and she said it sounded like I temporarily lost some of my awe and "muchness". We are trying to plan an adventure for the near future, or at least a plan for her upcoming bday to satisfy the need to rid life of some boredom and sameness. So the idea of that makes me feel a little bit better.
Maybe I am just having a blah day or week or whatever. I don't know.
I see my T this Wednesday. She commented last week that my mood had seemed really good and hopeful 2 weeks ago and then last week i seemed a bit down. So maybe this is low grade depression or maybe I am just a bit dissatisfied with things as they are. I Will see what she says. Thanks.

That's good you are going to your T. I used to be in the habit of mood tracking, and I'm trying to get back into it (moodtracker.com), where you can notice your patterns and any "warning signs" of a possible episode. It also helps you be more mindful of your sleeping patterns, etc. so that you can address certain things along the way. In your case, it's good you are self-aware (although I totally relate to over analyzing things). I guess just being aware of how long the lows last, and if your mood gets better or worse is the way to go. I hope you feel better soon.
