 When sadness, grief, anger, and lifelong major depression intersect, some days are unpleasant cactus gardens of spiky despair.

(I'm going to apply some workbench time, which almost always improves almost anything. But being motivated to go from this chair to that one is a lot of work right now.)

If you could remind me of some good thing in the world, or something good or sweet you saw or did, or some memory of us together or hope for being so in the future, it would be a great kindness, if you have the oomph to spare for it.

(Given past experience as a guide, I will get through this, but today everything feels at least temporarily insurmountable and made of despair.)

Tell me something good? Please? If you can?

A few months ago, one of my cats started jumping on the bed to be petted when I went to bed. After I'd gotten used to that, she started telling me that it was time to come to bed already.

She only tells me this when I'm up later than usual, so it's endearing rather than annoying, whether or not I take her suggestion.
