yuuagoWell. I had originally had plans to get a lot of things done today, including the various things ordered by my doc, but it was freakin' -32C outside so I just figured, no. I'll stay inside. Plus, I have no idea if the buses are running properly now. Give it maybe a couple days. But man, it's just so frustrating. Times like this, I wish I had a car, so that I wouldn't have to piss around waiting for the bus out in the cold. I guess this is even more incentive to get my license, then. My parents did say that if I get my license, they will help me pay for a vehicle. Sure, I would probably only use it when I need to go somewhere outside of a main bus route (or when I don't feel like waiting for the bus) but it'd still be good to have the option available to me.
I've felt rather stagnant these past few days, probably from not doing much. Oh la, me. I feel so much better when I can get out and about, but it's hard to do that when it's so cold. I tried to fix that a bit by doing some yoga today. It did help, a little. I think since it did help I'll start trying to do it more frequently. At the very least, it'll get me energized. And I do need to start it again. When I was doing it today I realized that I couldn't fully do some of the exercises that I used to be able to do, and that bothers me so much.
I think going out and about is this only thing that will fix this listlessness. :| So, I hope the weather starts getting more reasonable soon. Tomorrow afternoon it's forecast for -18C, which is... better, I guess. Still not great, but eh. That's warm enough that I can go out on a brief walk, at least. Or head out to do some shopping. I still have some giftcards from Christmas that I'd like to spend. Or maybe I could go to a movie... I keep saying "I'll go see Sherlock" but then I forget to, haha. Oh, well.
I think it's the cold that causes problems for me and my mood this time of year. It's not the dark or the snow or even the schoolwork. It's the extreme cold, the fact that I can't go walking around outside without it being hella unpleasant, even if I pile on all the layers. It drives a person to stay inside and hide, and doing that can easily plunge me into a horribly melancholic funk.
