Real Life: Lapses in responsibility

Today I lied to work, and told them that I was having engine troubles and needed to leave early for a mechanics appointment, when really, I wanted to talk to a girl online
No big deal, really, since I wasn't doing anything too pressing today, but I realized how pathetic I am at times....

Also, I finished a prompt that somebody dropped me on y-gal of Dean and Cas on an island, after their plane had crashed, a la Lost. I just have firedreamer's request, which was that I should draw something to make me happy.

I think I might open up prompts again next week :D

Movies: I'll Just Go by Myself, Then: Part One

Tuesday really sucked for me. I felt a soul crushing depression that I hadn't experienced since college, completely locking up emotionally and physically, unable to communicate, smile, or even be happy (though I really wanted to). It lasted all day at work, and I can't pinpoint what set me off, though if I had to guess, it would've probably been because I had to do all the set-up for work, even though there were two other people there to help, one of which stood around, being absolutely useless and talking. It's a small thing, but this girl is a returning employee, like me, but (1) she's been there longer and (2) she's better friends with the supervisor. This, of course, lead me to realize how unbalanced the treatment of workers is, which lead me to my day-long state of mind, in which I felt alienated, unappreciated, and apathetic towards everything material, including my lunch. These thoughts eventually evolved into the depressing realization of how pathetically routine my life has become - work, home, sleep, rinse, lather, repeat.

Something one of the university therapists told me in college: when you're feeling depressed, Liz, find something different to do to get you out of yourself and your current environment. So I decided to see a movie, which I've been wanting to see, but everybody who I ask to see it with me has already seen and isn't ready to see again for one reason or another: Iron Man 2

I actually enjoyed the movie as a character piece than as a superhero movie. Granted, Tony Stark's identity (from the end of the first movie on) is intertwined with him being Iron Man (he's not like Bruce Wayne, who houses two identities - Bruce Wayne, playboy, and Batman, the Goddamned Caped Crusader). To develop Tony Stark is to develop Iron Man. This movie was ( SPOILERS )
