  <description>&lt;h3&gt;21 Days of Dreamwidth&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;span class=&quot;cut-wrapper&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;display: none;&quot; id=&quot;span-cuttag___1&quot; class=&quot;cuttag&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b class=&quot;cut-open&quot;&gt;(&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class=&quot;cut-text&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://sofiaviolet.dreamwidth.org/510977.html#cutid1&quot;&gt;Since I&apos;ll be offline for a few days, I should get ahead.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class=&quot;cut-close&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;display: none;&quot; id=&quot;div-cuttag___1&quot; aria-live=&quot;assertive&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Side Effect: May Cause FEELINGS&lt;/h3&gt;

So I have a question for the people out there who are not congenitally depressed. 
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Sometimes I experience semi-random happiness, where I&apos;m just having a nice day and everything is kinda shiny and it&apos;s good to be alive. Sometimes I get enormously ragey over stuff that doesn&apos;t seem to merit serious RAEG.
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

And both of those ~~feelings~~ are pretty obviously tied to my meds (along with an increase in ability to Get Shit Done and a decrease in memory function). My question is: do I finally, after 20 years of being depressed, have a reasonable range of emotions?
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Plans&lt;/h3&gt;

Boston MCR show tomorrow night; I&apos;ll be in line during the day. Meeting with &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://tuesdaysgone.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://tuesdaysgone.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;tuesdaysgone&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Friday morning for a ride to PA and another MCR show. Assuming the gods of train schedules smile upon me, I should be back in Boston in time for the SlutWalk. (Fingers crossed I can make all my transit connections.) And then there is the DC concert. Wheeeeeee.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=sofiaviolet&amp;ditemid=510977&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

  <title>So I guess I am turning into one of those link-bloggers.</title>
  <link>https://sofiaviolet.dreamwidth.org/473305.html</link>
  <description>Today is a lovely lovely day of nothing! I slept until after two.
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I made two icons using images from &lt;a href=&quot;http://hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com&quot;&gt;Hyperbole and a Half&lt;/a&gt;&apos;s &lt;a href=&quot;http://hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com/2010/06/this-is-why-ill-never-be-adult.html&quot;&gt;This is Why I&apos;ll Never be an Adult&lt;/a&gt;, with the text changed:
&lt;center&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://iconoclastic.sofiaviolet.com/miscellaneous/sofiaviolet-fight!.png&quot; alt=&quot;fight all the oppressions!&quot; /&gt; and &lt;img src=&quot;http://iconoclastic.sofiaviolet.com/miscellaneous/sofiaviolet-fight%3F.png&quot; alt=&quot;fight all the oppressions?&quot; /&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/center&gt;

&lt;span class=&quot;cut-wrapper&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;display: none;&quot; id=&quot;span-cuttag___1&quot; class=&quot;cuttag&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b class=&quot;cut-open&quot;&gt;(&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class=&quot;cut-text&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://sofiaviolet.dreamwidth.org/473305.html#cutid1&quot;&gt;links for today&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class=&quot;cut-close&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;display: none;&quot; id=&quot;div-cuttag___1&quot; aria-live=&quot;assertive&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=sofiaviolet&amp;ditemid=473305&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

  <title>oh make me over</title>

  <description>In my enthusiasm for this whole enterprise, I&apos;ll be continuing the daily link roundups. I never thought I&apos;d be that kind of blogger, but I seem to have developed the habit, even before I was doing a specific kind of link-gathering. But while link-collecting is a useful service, I also want to be making other posts, especially in the context of &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://three-weeks-for-dw.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png&apos; alt=&apos;[community profile] &apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://three-weeks-for-dw.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;three_weeks_for_dw&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One thing I&apos;d like to do is provide a new song every day!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Daily Song (right-click): &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sofiaviolet.com/dreamwidth/threeweeks/CelebritySkin.mp3&quot;&gt;Hole - Celebrity Skin&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Within the first week this song was on my ipod, it went straight to the top of the most-played list. It remains in the number one spot, with almost three times as many plays as the next song down.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://blnchflr.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://blnchflr.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;blnchflr&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; has asked me to write about unreliable narrators, although this will take a few days. (I shake my fist at the end of the semester.) I am still accepting prompts, questions, et cetera, via comment/pm/email/carrier pigeon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/poll/?id=2898&quot;&gt;View Poll: Some ideas I already have...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=sofiaviolet&amp;ditemid=459803&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>
