Having a Red Hot Chili Peppers kind of day

know what I mean?

Published on June 28, 2006 By KarmaGirl In Blogging

I feel "off" today. I've been very productive at work this morning, so my work load is fine. But "I" feel off. A bit cranky, a bit temperamental, a bit melancholy, a bit frustrated and a bit lost feeling.

It's an odd state of mind that hits me now and then. It's not like being bi-polar (though I had a shrink try to diagnose me that way once). It doesn't happen very often, either. I wouldn't really call it depression, either. It's just "off".... like I'm not really myself, but I'm not really anyone else either.

It may be stress. It may be pain that I'm ignoring. I have no idea.

All I know is that a lot of Red Hot Chili Peppers songs make a lot of sense today.

After your accident, I think it is perfectly understandable to feel a little 'off'. Even those of us not involved in such a situation have those kind of days.

But the Doctor says Chocolate will help. Need a prescription?

Ah, the wisdom of Anthony Keidis and the funkalicious grooves of Flea...yes, I am intimately aware of their healing powers.

I have the same kind of days. My doc told me that it's part and parcel of mild PTSD and that they'll pass; all I have to do is learn to live with them.

They still kind of suck, though.

Thanks, I'm trying,

Now....that's what I need!

It's a bit odd, isn't it? It's weird how certain music can "feel" when you're in a certain mood.

Suck My Kiss!!!!

Yeah...exactly...

I got a bad disease, up from my brain is where I bleed....insanity it seems, has got me by my soul to squeeze.

Where I go I, just don't know, I got to, got to, gotta take it slow. When I found my piece of mind, i'm gonna give you some of my good time.

Ps, those kind of feelings hit me all the time. And I mean all the time. I hate them, usually I just need to step back, stop thinking for a bit and listen to some good tunes. This is usually everyday when I get out of work. Straight home and lock myself in my room for about an hour. Of course, the grass helps this part of the day greatly.

Life is my friend
Rake it up to take it in
Wrap me in your cinnamon
Especially in Michigan
...well I could be your friend

White clouds I'm in
A mitten full of fisherman
C'mon huckleberry finn
Show me how to make her grin
...well I'm in Michigan

Cry me a future
Where the revelations run amok
Ladies and gentlemen
Lions and tigers come running
Just to steal your luck

A rainy Lithuanian
Who's dancing as an Indian
Painted in my tiger skin
(Especially in Michigan)

Double chins and bowling pins
Unholy presbyterians
Land is full of medicine
I find it when I'm slipping in
...into Michigan

The tainted new librarian
Who fainted when she tucked you in
Let's float away like zeppelins
(on stoic gusts of northern wind)

Cry me a future
Where the revelations run amok
Ladies and gentlemen
Lions and tigers come running
Just to steal your luck

Out on the farm we'll be
Swimming with the mother duck
Deep in the mitten where
Lions and tigers come running
Just to steal your luck

Life is my friend
Underwater violins
Order now from ho chi min
A porcelain that comes in twins
...when I'm in Michigan

Throw me in the looney bin
Cause I can take it on the chin
The cleavage of your pillow skin
(Is moving like a violin)

Cry me a future
Where the revelations run amok
Ladies and gentlemen
Lions and tigers come running
Just to steal your luck

Out on the farm we'll be
Swimming with the mother duck
Deep in the mitten where
Lions and tigers come running
Just to steal your luck
