Have I posted this on here before?

I don’t know. And I don’t care. Today has sucked and I have no blog content.

BYE

Bah, what’s with me?

This is going to sound like a super emo post, but I don’t have anything else to say today so you get to hear me bitch about pseudo problems.

I suck at being happy.

It’s not that I can’t be happy. It’s true that I haven’t been truly happy in like three years, but once I started teaching stats and taking classes, I finally felt that elusive joy you feel when you wake up knowing that you have a purpose (or at least can pretend to have one).

But whenever I get to that happiness stage, there’s always a little (often big) voice in the back of my head saying, “why the hell are you happy? Happiness = complacency, complacency = stagnation, stagnation = you’re not trying hard enough you fool.”

Stupid? Yeah, welcome to my world.

But that’s how it goes.

Now I have to find something to fret over obsessively to bring things back from “obscene happiness.”

‘Caaaaaaaaaaaause I suck.

Good stuff

Ah, test anxiety. I’ve forgotten how you feel. I’ll bet you $20 that I’ll be throwing up all morning tomorrow before I get to campus.

But aside from that…

I’m experiencing a feeling that I haven’t genuinely felt in a long, long time: happiness. Sure, obviously I’ve had SOME little bits of happiness, but for the past three years or so I’ve felt like I haven’t had a purpose or haven’t had a goal worth working for.

But now that’s gone. And I’m…I’m happy. For the first time since like 2009, I’m actually genuinely happy.

I don’t really know how to handle this.

Because it’s my blog and my post and I want to
