Looking for midpoint between Super Califragilistic Expialidocious and Severe Clinical Depression

[Amerigo Vespucci]

That's my current state of mind but I seem to lack an APPROPRIATE LABEL for it.

DISCUSS, dammit.

1. Take care of you!

[Amerigo Vespucci]

5. Thanks...

...vicious circle time, though.

"I'll get better when things get better"

but

"Things won't get better until I get better"

So I keep getting these prospective clients who lie to me, like one who had a handshake deal with me to build her Web Site, and I showed up the night she promised to be there with the check and she was a no-show, so I emailed her and she did the "OH, I'M SO SORRY, I LEFT MY BLACKBERRY AT THE blah blah blah blah blah," and then said that she and her husband had some expenses coming up and that they were considering if ther were going to renew the lease in the building they're currently in...

...so which is it? You blew me off because you forgot your Blackberry, or that other stuff you said after that?

And lately, as everyone I owe money to is asking "WHERE'S MY MONEY," I get more and more and more prospective clients who...gosh darn it...can't seem to keep from misplacing their Blackberry.

9. That is very frustrating I'm sure. Just remember 'this too shall pass' and it does.

2. ennui

I think

[Amerigo Vespucci]

3. That's in the general ballpark, but with a real mean edge to it...

...frequent migraine-level headaches from grinding teeth and / or clenching my jaw. So it's whatever ennui is if you ramp it up a couple of notches.

4. The view to the west:

6. "Blue skies, nothing but blue skies..." Thanks, I needed that.

I was blue, just as blue as I could be
Ev'ry day was a cloudy day for me
Then good luck came a-knocking at my door
Skies were gray but theyre not gray anymore

Blue skies
Smiling at me
Nothing but blue skies
Do I see

Bluebirds
Singing a song
Nothing but bluebirds
All day long

Never saw the sun shining so bright
Never saw things going so right
Noticing the days hurrying by
When you're in love, my how they fly

Blue days
All of them gone
Nothing but blue skies
From now on

I should care if the wind blows east or west
I should fret if the worst looks like the best
I should mind if they say it cant be true
I should smile, that's exactly what I do

:toast:

7. 'Summer Breeze'

[Amerigo Vespucci]

8. No, that's on the "Super" side of "Ennui"...

...if I had a vinyl copy of that one in my hands right now I'd probably snap it like a twig.

For the last two days I've been listening to my Mahavishnu Orchestra mix CD...basically most of the tracks from the first two albums...also a couple of live CDs from Adrian Belew-era King Crimson...basically loud, moody stuff.
