It sounds like you did your best getting through a tough day there. At least you were upbeat while W was there that is a positive.
I know what you mean about the downward cycles, sometimes its hard to find your way back up.
It also sounds like you are getting more GAL things planned in and its good you are becoming friends with new people. I find this hard to do myself and am probably out of practice. That murder mystery brunch sounds great, I would love to try something like that!
good news on the tip about the job opening. Its always good to get the information, look at new possibilities and look at making a move that would make you feel good about yourself.
Hang in there!
