Jan. 29th, 2008 06:52 pmHmmm...according to the news, you're the most depressed in your 40s, the big low point is 44. The reason is you start thinking about all the things you haven't accomplished or planned to achieve by now, and are overwhelmed with disappointment and frustration with yourself. In your 20's - everything is wide open and new. And your 30's? You still have time, figure things will work out. Hit 40 and you get depressed. It's apparently universial. Odd. Good news? Apparently it gets better once you reach 50, by that time you start to come to terms with what you have and haven't accomplished in life. So four more years - and I'm over the hump. Just have to frigging survive and hopefully accomplish something during them. From what I've read online? I can't tell if this is true or not.
Dead tired from work. Fell asleep on train as opposed to reading Margret Atwood's The Blind Assasin. Now just want brain dead activity. So will knit and watch comfort tv.
Been enjoying Medium which I DVR'd. Better than it used to be. I think I like it better when she isn't working for the DA, less procedural. Also Angelica Huston is fun as a desperate PI using Allison's abilities to promote herself.

In the episodes I watched, the DA was no longer part of the show. She was no longer working for him. Also her hubby's out of work. They sort of allude to why, but don't really explain it.
I'm thinking that must have happened last season, because I saw the second and third episode of the current season.

Not sure if the first one fired him or if he left it for a better job? At any rate, I identified with it. First tv show I've seen that has really addressed the employment crisis.
