Hyperbole And A Half

[captain_slinky]

Hyperbole And A Half is officially "back" today with an article that did exactly what she wanted it to do - it made me uncomfortably laugh at depression. I was EXTREMELY lucky to have my "Piece Of Corn Moment" (read the article) without the help of a doctor or medication, and i really hope I'm not one of those sunny people who presents himself as having "The Answer" ("Meditation is the only way, my friend!").

My corn came in 1996, the year I skipped Christmas. I sat in my apartment all alone and watched the Andy Griffith Show marathon on Nickelodeon all Christmas eve. My emotions came on-line somewhere around 3am Christmas morning, and I laugh-cried myself to sleep.

YAY! She's back! I'm so glad! I've been waiting and hoping and occasionally checking in for...what, two years or so? I was happy to get an update from her last year when she provided a little insight into what was happening. Anyway, thanks for pointing it out. I'll be reading it today. ^_^

I loved her from the beginning , but this most recent post makes me love her more.
