I'm Depressed...

LTT-

We%26#39;re all depressed you%26#39;re back.

At work... We%26#39;re depressed you%26#39;re back AT WORK. ;-)

On the other hand I%26#39;m amazingly jealous - that you went to Barcelona, and that you have a job. Count your blessings.

I'm Depressed...

Hey LTT ..... today I’m wearing one of those silly T-shirts that says; “My friend from Brooklyn went to Barcelona ..... and all I got is this stupid Trip Report thread.” I felt abandoned my friend .....

At first I was afraid

I was petrified

Kept thinking I could never [find a restaurant]

without you by my side

But I spent so many nights

thinking how you did me wrong

I grew strong

I learned how to [order take out] on my own

and so you%26#39;re back

from [Barcelona]

I just walked in to find you here

with that sad look upon your face

I should have changed my stupid lock

I should have made you leave your key

If I had known for just one second

you%26#39;d be back to bother me

Go on now go ..... walk out the door

just turn around now

%26#39;cause you%26#39;re [dining advice] is not welcome anymore

weren%26#39;t you the one who tried to [get me to eat at Shake Shack]

you think I%26#39;d crumble

you think I%26#39;d lay down and [eat at the Olive Garden]

Oh no, not I

I will survive

as long as I know how to [eat]

I know I will stay alive

I%26#39;ve got all my life to live

I%26#39;ve got all my [meals] to give

and I%26#39;ll survive

I will survive

It took all the strength I had

not to fall apart

kept trying hard to mend

the pieces of my broken [Zagat Guide]

and I spent oh so many nights

just feeling sorry for myself

I used to cry

But now I hold my head up high

and you see me

somebody new

I%26#39;m not that chained up little person

still [looking for dining advice from] you

and so you felt like dropping in

and just expect me to be free

now I%26#39;m saving all my [eating]

for someone who%26#39;s [eating] me ..... (wow this last line makes absolutely no sense at all)

Now you know things are rough when I start singing Gloria Gaynor !! But welcome back anyway brother. Do you need me to fill you in on what’s going on here at the TA Forum since you’ve been gone?

Welcome back, I took a couple of days off and I am back to work tomorrow, and I am already depressed thinking about it.

Where%26#39;s the meds?......
