Depression: Can't tell if I would just feel bad no matter what--I think there was a legitimate, cyclical hormone dip late last week, which is partly why I felt so horrible--and (whichever topic) is the one I have chosen to gnaw on, or if (whichever topic) is making me feel bad, and if that's the case, if a strong attempt to redirect my thoughts would help. I mean, it probably couldn't hurt anyway, but I guess I'm curious as to whether redirecting my thoughts would make the situation better, or if I'd just settle into some new fixation. Because it's a hopeless topic. It's not something I can fix, it's not something I can do anything to improve, and it's doing a number on my self-esteem, which is leaking out all over everything else.

(Sometimes I think that it might be too late for so many of the things I wanted to accomplish, even though I'm only thirty. To late to catch a trend, too late to be a child prodigy, too late for young love. Well, if that's the case--fuck it, I might as well just have fun, right?)

So. If the sun comes out tomorrow, I'm going to go outside on that photo safari I meant to take a few weeks ago. Take some more pictures of flowers and foliage, basically--I can get some camera practice in, now that I've started thinking of photography as a minor hobby. I've just got to stop angsting and get on with living.

Whoo-hoo. fellow theatre buffs. I love the whole speculation about Shakespeare's true identity. Such fun if it really is a pseudonym and we've been freaking out over it for the last 400 years.

Though I have to say... perhaps the lame "there's no mystery" climax actually applies here...? If the real W. Shakespeare were a semi-anonymous theatre person, why would his brother have been buried in Southwark Cathedral, right next to John Fletcher? Even as is, it seems like it's too much to do for a relative..

I'm actually not a huge theater-buff. I just happen to be in a Shakespeare class right now, with a teacher who looks like Hagrid and likes to rant and rave over this whole thing. xD From what he's said, though, there was a merchants son whose name was William Shakspere, and he didn't get past third grade, and the actual writer may or may not be the Earl of Oxford. He could also be something-Bacon (can't remember that guys first name). Or Queen Elizabeth. Which is like, the craziest theory ever, but, someone "credible" thought it up, so he had to discuss it. lol

I demand a teacher like that. Looks much more fun than any raving teacher I've ever had.

Yeah, there's also a conspiracy theory about Shakespeare being Marlowe's pseudonym/new identity, which I find fascinating.

My geek, it is showing.
