I saw a commercial about some lung problem, asthma, COPD or chest cold, I don't remember which one. They showed a elephant standing on a woman's chest. The image made me think of those days when you are feeling down, how everything is a challenge to do, well today is one of those days. I feel like I am carrying an elephant on my back.
Not a pig on my back, that gives the connotation of fun (piggy back)
Not a monkey, that gives the connotation of an overwhelming problem or drug use (monkey on your back) but I think an elephant is the perfect description for today, I feel weighted down. Luckily I will recover after a good nights sleep, this is not the kind of down day that leads to a spiraling depression, just an off day.
Everyone is entitled to a tough day, tears, moping, sitting in front of a tv and throwing your own pity party, so to all of you feeling it with me, raise your proverbial glass and toast with me to the elephant on our back.
And to all you animal rights groups (no elephants were harmed in the making of this blog)
