The Fortieth: In the Negative

I don't know if it's a girl thing, or if it's an Ashleigh thing, but I swear, my emotions go from 0-10 and back again in one day.

The slightest thing can send me into the descent, in a similar way in which something small can pick me up again.

It seriously annoys me how things like this happen so often. I wish there was a way to keep my emotions in check. I'll take one look at someone and just their presence will instantly make me feel angry and I'll start emanating rage. The rage then turns into self-deprecation and more anger before sort of progressing into a gradual depression. What a charming set of events.

But it's true. One thing leads to another, all sparked by someone who might evoke feelings in you from a significant event that affected you in the past.

Speaking uniformly for everyone, of course.

I don't even really know what the point of this post is. I spent 20 minutes sitting in my car in the driveway this evening. I'd just got home from somewhere and felt quite lonely, so I didn't move. My car was off, no music was on and it was fairly cold, yet I didn't want to move.

Depressing? Maybe, but it was also reflective.
