Let me begin this post by making a declaration: I. Love. My. Meds.
I never thought I would enjoy taking medication, considering what happened the last time I was on depression meds, but this one? Is spectacular. I still don’t feel 100% like myself but I feel 100% better than I did at this time last week so that’s a huge improvement (well, any improvement over feeling like you live in the bottom of a black hole in the deepest part of the Earth is significant improvement). What this means for blogging is that I still suck as a blogging friend; however, I can actually look at my Google Reader without having an anxiety attack. So that’s good. And it also means that I’m caught up on about 75% of my blogging obligations, with a self-imposed deadline of next week to complete the rest. So that’s really good.
I still have a substantial amount of behind the scenes work to do, as well as decide the future of Daily Money Shot, but we can talk about that another time. For now, let’s just talk about some of the excellent and enjoyable posts I read this past week (and I few I wrote for others):
