note- i wrote this last night
i was feeling kind of bad tonight. for the past several days, the depression-thing has been popping up occasionally. today, i was just feeling incredibly trapped- in a small apartment, in a life doing rather solitary things, etc, with same old desperate panic-y thing. even after south pacific, i wasn't so sure i'd be alright (i managed to keep from crying in it but only just barely. also, the musical was kind of really really wonderful.) but anyway, we walked out after it across the middle-ish of lincoln center, down those wide stairs, and you could see the city being all city-like-- tall buildings of various heights, with irregular patterns of lit-up rooms, and people and cars all around, pretty blinky things, that sort of stuff-- and i knew it was all right. no more feeling trapped in a small apartment, but just a feeling of fitting in to it all perfectly. and it is all wonderful.
