0321 hrs/ and still wide awake. Experienced tremendous joy from listening to music today, first time in years. Maybe, 2 years or so. Actually felt passion for music, which, long ago, used to be a huuuuuge part of my life. Since getting so sick, just gone.

Wrote furiously on novel for hours and hours with no break. Laughed repeatedly, which I never ever do anymore. Sad, really.

Obviously, in concert with my recent downness and everything else, I am quite labile right now. A bit hypo, for sure right now. Just again proves how the DSM-V does not describe my life in any type of accurate fashion, whatever. Not n the least. It may be a series of archetypes, but even those are not very relevant to me and my life.

Will try to lay down again in a little bit. Sort of yawning occ. now.


Took this cool picture of the water of the Willamette from the Broadway Brg. late afternoon. Taking calming pictures calms me, for some reason. I thought it was kind of pretty. The giant bridge in the distance is the Fremont. Though most commonly termed the Rose City, this town does have several monikers, one being City of Bridges or Bridge City. There are 14 just spanning the two largest bodies of water here.
