Depressed, burned out or just burned...?

yeah, i'm back, and i THOUGHT i was also back in the saddle... i must be experiencing residual jet lag and/or an abreaction to being back in the u.s. because, as i was sitting here earlier, i suddenly experienced a dramatic energy drop... i took a nap, ate dinner with the family, and, now that i'm back at the keyboard and reading over the developments of the day, the only thought that keeps going through my mind is, "fuck it, what's the use...?" the same goddam criminals are in charge, they're spinning the same goddam lies, they're stonewalling congress like crazy, and we don't seem to be getting any goddam where... to make matters worse, it's snowing like hell, after temps in the low 60s and sunny when i got in at mid-day... maybe it'll all look different in the morning...

ok, yes, it's not all bleak... i'm babysitting (the son and his wife didn't waste any time!), and the sounds of the grandsons playing super mario is a pleasant background...
