Well on top of two broken ribs, a ton of snow came down today out of nowhere and the roads are nearly un-drivable.

So, one of my friends, one of the best ones, has a depression. She was seeing the schools psychologist for a while last year, but she quit and said she's getting better.
Last autumn it started again, or maybe it never went out and she just pretended she was allright. It has been clear that she hasn't been totally allright, but it seemed like it was still an improvement. But it was not.
When we finally found out that she was trying to hide it, she admitted the whole thing. Allright, I was suffering a mild depression for awhile, but that case of hers, it's not mild. It's very serious. She said she's not self-destructive, but yet she admits she's been hurting herself. And that she was for a while a bit suicidal, even.
Still, she refuses to accept help and it's a miracle she even admitted it, but thus is an awful feeling. How can anyone help her if she refuses to accept help? And it's terrible to feel constant fear. And when someone you really care suffers, you don't feel good yourself.

The best thing you can do is let her know you're there for her and then, in the event that she needs you, actually follow through and be there for her. Don't try to fix her or make things better, just don't let her forget she's not alone.

Ki and I are celebrating 2 years together on this lovely day.

It's been stressful with some irritating maintenance in our building and he's been at work most of the day but none of that actually changes how grateful I am for his love. We don't need to go all-out and make a huge deal about it because we know it's a special day regardless.

Still managed to take the lady out to dinner and my injury didnt affect much. Now we're having a romantic movie night in our dimly light apartment and champaigne :)

Is that the dude from the chicken scene in Pink Flamingo??

I went to 2 record stores today and neither of them had the CD's I wanted. :(

Got my first commission today for creating music for a start up company. This could be the beginning of something big. *fingers crossed*

The rep also mentioned that she needs some artwork, and had mentioned she was interested in Poor Old Po's work that I used in a few YooToob vids of my music.

Example:

I need to contact Po (I PM'ed him on Bookface), but time is short, so I called another artist friend of mine that is working on it. I'd do it myself, but I haven't been creating anything with that type of medium in quite a while.
