I know how you feel...

I've been feeling much the same way lately with regards to not really knowing where I fall on the happiness/depressed continuum. There's nothing really wrong with my life per se, all the people I love and care about are relatively happy and healthy, I enjoy my job and feel fulfilled by it most of the time and I have no financial worries or concerns.
I think I've decided I'm not unhappy, I'm just bored. I think I need to shake things up and start doing new things to get my out of my comfort zone. Maybe you should just force yourself to be more social with the people at work and get in touch with old friends. The way I see it, if you pretend to be social and to enjoy the company of others for a while, maybe you'll stop having to pretend. Anyway, I'm rambling too. It was nice to get an update.
Man, I hear you. Now that I have my own apartment by myself I keep moping around wishing that I could be hanging out with people. But then when someone invites me out, I'm super reluctant to put forth the effort. Hrmm...maybe that's because they all live in the city and I hate having to find my way back.
It's funny, I can't say that I'm bored, as I have lots of projects to do. I just don't want to do them alone. How come it's so hard to find a side-kick these days?
Anyway, best of luck. Hey, you throw a party and I'll take the train out after work and hang out in Sacramento. Promise.
i completely feel you on that. i was feeling that for the entire year. i have no idea what it is, but its fairly unmotivating and while im not depressed, ive been rather disinterested and a bit dissatisfied.
ive recently moved to oakland with a woman who has the social life for ten people. im thinking this move helped.
hope you pick up your pep soon; perhaps you possibly coming back to the bay will help. i do miss our days of all hanging out with kamill, peggy, erin, et al.
