I'm feeling better than I was this morning (and last night). Turns out I needed a little inexpensive retail therapy to cheer me up.
fuzzpsych and I went to Worth A Second Look on Victoria, which is a very scary place. I almost came home with the most hideous chair I've ever seen because it was cheap enough (only $30), comfy and pretty damned fugly. But I didn't, finding a $5 chair to replace one I don't like in the livingroom that gets rarely used (partially because of location and partially because it's really not comfortable). The one I bought is most likely an office or waiting room chair, but it's real wood and quite sturdy and hey! $5. :)
Plus I picked up some other things (fabric, zippers, buttons and a nice hunk of leather) that I happened to spy while I was poking around. And for less than $25, I got some stuff that I wanted AND improved my mood. :)
