After the high of a week-long visit from dear friends, the weekend that followed couldn’t have been any more depressing. Some bad news on the job front and the never-ending gray and rainy weekend days combined to turn the mood close to funereal. While Saturday veered on the normal, Sunday, which normally comes as a nice jump-off point to the start of another workweek, was anything but, and my inability to get motivated to do anything was reminiscent of my unemployed early days.
