No Pride, No Father's Day, No Family Visit.....

Just seems like another crummy day today, of course i originally planned on going to the Portland Gay Pride Festival but due to autopay on my card my money got taken before i could get it out of the bank.
I had planned to go still but then my friends decided they didnt want to go again....
And i don't have a great relationship with my dad so besides telling him on the phone Happy Fathers Day there is no special get together planned.
Also i found out my Great Uncle is out visiting from Indiana, i texted him letting know i live right next to my Uncle George and he was welcome to come over this morning, well i heard nothing from him, and heard he's already headed to my Aunt Judi's so i guess i don't rank very high on his list of people to visit despite the fact i LIVE RIGHT ACROSS the road from my Uncle George who's house he left from.
It just really hurts, and i am once again having a crummy fricking day and pissed off about multiple things.
No money, no fun, nothing..
I really think i am just going to stop caring about things at all anymore as more i care or more i want to do i m constantly disapointed, maybe if i stop having hope or wanting to do something i will stop feeling so damn crappy....

::pats Chris on the back:: Back when I was depressed a lot, I'd say Blue skies, white clouds, over and over.
Relatives can be crap, I have a family full of them. Sorry your day ended up in the dumps.
What do you generally get a bit of fun out of doing?

@chrissbergstrom Do you live where you can just go out and walk around the block? Fresh air can work wonders!
I once complained on Twitter about being down in the dumps, or maybe I was feeling grumpy. Someone's suggestion:
Eat more fiber!
LOL, just the suggestion cheered me up. But it turns out that fiber does have some sort of effect on our moods....
See #4
It is certainly humbling to take a step back and recognize that so many aspects of our physiology are actually under the control of the countless microbe...

I am quite a bit older than you and know exactly how you are feeling. I don't want to get into the woes of my life but all I can offer is that you have to plowing forward and try to distract yourself with things you like.
