I was hugging friends today. It was nice while they were giving me hugs...but then once it ended...back to feeling down.

It depends on WHY its a bad day. If the cause is me or the crews I inspect then I do exactly the wrong thing--I internalize the stress and bury it DEEP.
I do not suggest that as a pattern to follow.
I have some good friends who listen and hold me accountable.

That would probably make me more sad, because all of my chocolate money would have been spent.

Go for a drive. Explore some neighborhood streets you've never been down. Leave the GPS off until you need to figure out how to get back.

Most any problem can be solved by winning the powerball lottery

I usually count my friends and family, earthly blessings and achievements in that order.

Basically, I've never had a bad day yet.

Go home, take a hot shower, maybe play video games. Or just go to sleep

HER DIARY

Saturday night I thought he was acting weird. We had made plans to meet at a bar to have a drink. I was shopping with my friends all day long, so I thought he was upset at the fact that I was a bit late, but he made no comment. Conversation wasn't flowing so I suggested that we go somewhere quiet so we could talk. He agreed but he kept quiet and absent. I asked him what was wrong he said nothing. I asked him if it was my fault that he was upset. He said it had nothing to do with me and not to worry. On the way home I told him that I loved him, he simply smiled and kept driving. I can't explain his behavior; I don't know why he didn't say I love you too. When we got home I felt as if had lost him, as if he wanted nothing to do with me anymore. He just sat there and watched TV He seemed distant
and absent. Finally I decided to go to bed. About 10 minutes later he came to bed and to my surprise he responded to my caress and we made love, but I still felt that he was distracted and his thoughts where somewhere else. I decided that I could not take it anymore so I decided to confront him with the situation but he had fallen asleep. I started crying and cried until I too fell asleep. I don't know what to do. I'm almost sure that his thoughts are with someone else. My life is a disaster.

HIS DIARY

Today the Cowboys lost. At least I got laid.

Heh. I don't think that statement makes much sense. Take a lesson from history how sudden money has caused people to ruin their lives. People that cannot say no to what money buys, because they never had any of their own that they didn't blow through...

Most of my problems revolve around work. No work, much fewer problems.

This is like feeding starving people thinking you are doing them good. It shocks the system. However, if the starving person has the discipline to eat it slowly and carefully, they won't die. Still, I'll take that chance any day. It might be a few years of problem free running till I have to work, assuming I stupidly blow it all away but it will be a few years without issues.

10 million would resolve 99.9% of my problems
