The Blues

My cat Bebeka

I’ve had one of these days when everything seems impossible. Couldn’t keep my eyes open, couldn’t read your blogs or write mine, couldn’t call friends, send out CVs or even cook.

I know, when people in blogs say "sorry I wasn’t around" it presupposes others are missing out on something. But I am not using the phrase like that. I mean, sorry I can’t be there for you. Because I know some of you are experiencing tougher times than I do.

It just immobilizes me.

For my messenger friends: I am not around much, I know. It is bad manners. When I am in such a bad mood I don’t really know what to say to people. I don’t want to sound miserable or talk about the weather (it’s fine). So I just shut up.

I’ll be up and running in no time. Promise.

    Your cat has such a cute mouth! I love it! ih hi

  2. Devil Mood Says:

    Maybe you should complain and talk about the (fine) weather - I envy you! ;P
    It’s alright to be sad but we miss you!

  3. Fuff Says:

    Cheer up…your cat is scrummy, teleia, katapliktiki!! xxx

  4. Cathy Says:

    I get this way as well.
    No apologies required; sometimes we just need to be in our own headspace. The most important thing is that you come back out again feeling ok.

    My love
    xo

    Aaawww, Chloe, sorry to hear you are feeling so blue. Hope you find some happy thoughts to help you through this time. Have a wonderful, fluffy, cuddle with Bebeka … that always makes me feel better (not with Bebeka, of course, but with my Bambi !!). It’s amazing how animals know when you are not feeling right, and have that way about them which cheers you up. Works for me, anyway ! Take care, smile, Meow :-)

    Bebeka is cute. Hope you feel better.

  7. Beauty Says:

    Hello, just stumbled upon your lovely blog!

    I’m sorry your feeling so blue! Hope your feeling better, soon! :)

    Bebeka is adorable… I have a cat as well, but - she’s the spawn of Satan. Giggles.

    A hug from an old chatter

  9. Maja Says:

    I hope you get cuddles from your cat and everyone else around you :)

  10. moondog Says:

    i like to put on some sad music and listen to it until i start to feel better. then i take a long long long long walk and that usually relaxes me. don’t know if that works for you, but you’re welcome to use it if you think it might help :)

  11. Connie and Rob Says:

    It is so okay to take some time for yourself. No need to worry about us! Hope you feel better very soon.

    Take care and I am sending you bunches of hugs,
    Connie

  12. Ben Heller Says:

    I don’t expect an apology. Just post when you feel up to it. There’s no rush.

  13. erikku Says:

    Hey you can dump on me anytime. I don’t mind at all. ^_^

  14. Stephanie Says:

    take care of yourself xx

  15. Stephanie Says:

    It’s okay. We all have those days…or, I do anyway. Take care of yourself & see you around when you feel like rejoining the world :)

  16. Jack P Toerson Says:

    I quite like hearing when people are down because it’s a valid reminder that I’m not the only one that has down moods. So there’s no shame or burden hearing about it.

  17. Walter Says:

    There’s a time for everything, even making time to be alone with oneself for awhile. Gotta recharge the batteries eventually. Take your time charging back up.

  18. Etchen Says:

    What a sweet looking cat–does “Bebeka” mean anything?

  19. missy Says:

    Lots of love, Chloe x

    No need to apologise! We all have our moments :-)

  20. DBA Lehane Says:

    There’s always a tomorrow…nothing is ever worth too much upset

  21. Kieran Says:

    If in doubt, post a cat. Never fails.

  22. Pirate Says:

    I hear you loud and clear.

  23. omm Says:

    Oh well,I was feeling just like you described today…It normally passes quickly, I suspect it could be due to…humidity? jj. Well, you count on my total understanding on this one too, hope it helps you feel a bit better.

  24. Maddy Says:

    if love is blind why is
    lingerie so popular?

    you are supremely loved.

  25. kimananda Says:

    Come back when you feel more ready to come back, and we’ll be looking forward.

  26. gina Says:

    reading other people’s blogs always make me happier. maybe you need a date night or a new pair of shoes. if only these things would snap us out of it ….
    thinking about ya…xox

  27. Heidi Says:

    {{{{{{{ Chloe}}}}} big hugs! I totally understand where your coming from. I hope tomorrow will be brighter for you and many days after.

  28. blackcrag Says:

    I have missed you on Yahoo, chloe.

    I am sorry you feel so down (and I now job hunting is very depressing), but life won’t keep you down forever.. you’ll come around, find that job and get back on top of things quickly, I know.

    In the meantime, take care, sweetie!

  29. blackcrag Says:

    And I forgot to say “Hello, Kitty!”

    It/he/she is a cute lil kitty!

  31. ViSta Says:

    No problem Chloe, take your time, we are here and always happy to read from you no matter how often, or seldomly :-)
    Kisses :-)

  32. Chloe Says:

    Thank you all for your emails, cards and beautiful words. I depend on words a lot, at least as much as i depend on actions. I think words are precious and shouldn’t be uttered lightly. This is why it makes me so glad when you say nice things. Words matter, a great deal.

    devil
    i’m never non stop sad for a long time. :)

    cathy
    I’m okay. Thanks for the cards again. You are a special person, a true friend.

    fuff
    she’s beautiful but has bad manners and acts like a dog. Runs after people and is not independent as cats are.

    Meow
    thanks kitty. Bebeka would eat me alive if i were to cuddle her. She eats all the time. In fact, i’m going to post another picture of her so that you can see how enormous she is.

    justacoolcat
    thanks cool cat :)I’m okay.

    reaching for a moment
    welcome!
    Bebeka is like your cat. She looks cute but has the devil inside.

    zona
    ((zona))hugs to you too.

    maja
    thank you Maja. I hope so too. :)

    moondog
    what? exercise? a long long long walk is a euphimism for exercise. No way! :)

    Connie
    I got your bunches of hugs.
    You are on my mind Connie xxxxx

    ben
    i’ve got to rush and get back into shape if i want to be quizmaster ever again.
    And I will be, As God is my witness, I will!
    :)

    erikku
    no i wouldn’t! not to my little friend on the prairie. nooooo.

    stephanie brighton
    you too.
    x

    stephanie boston
    i know until this is fixed this mood is going to keep coming and going and coming again.
    every path leads somewhere, so we’ll have to wait and see.

    Toerson
    if you do like it go read the August, September archives. I was really gloomy back then, you’ll have fun.
    I’m teasing Toerson :)

    walter
    why did everybody think i said i won’t be posting? you wish my friend!
    ain’t gonna happen. :)

    etchen
    bebeka means baby girl but it’s a funny word mostly used for grown women who act / dress like babies.

    missy
    thank you missy.
    my moment is more like a year though. :)

    fly
    correct my friend. But then there’s the day after tomorrow, and that is usually Monday.

    kieran
    and i never want to fail that’s why i post cats.

    pirate
    ahoy!
    did you see that ship in the new post? that’s a ship for you my captain.

    omara
    sweetie, it’s not humidity, it’s lack of work. More like a drought.

    madelyn
    lingerie doesn’t have to be seen, it can be felt. maybe that’s why.
    you too. :)

    kimananda
    it took me a day and a half! :)

    gina
    both of these things work for me! and if i had to choose, shoes last longer that a night out.
    :)
    thanks gina.

    heidi
    i know you understand and in this case i really wish you didn’t.
    i wish we were carefree.

    blackcrag
    remember when the computer broke down?
    when it got fixed i needed to reinstall everything. I haven’t installed Trilian yet. It’s the application that lets me use Yahoo, ICQ, AIM and MSN at the same time, all in one. So that’s why.
    It’s a she (the kitty).

    gurgo
    i know Gurgo! xxxx

    Vista
    kisses back xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    thank you my friend

    Because I know some of you are experiencing tougher times than I do
    sure, finally, i resigned in disgust to my job (31.03.2006 will be my last working day), broke up with my girlfriend, you want more? :)
    Hope, you’ll be fine soon pixie
    Cheers!
