Lately I’ve been undergoing some intense, emotionally and physically demanding therapy for the traumas I experienced in October 2012 and in February of this year.

The other day was especially rough. I was more than emotional. I was frustrated. I was angry. I was devastated. I was exhausted.

However, it never fails… whenever I’m down in the dumps, my toilet gets plugged. Then I end up bawling while plunging it.

I know there’s a lesson to be learned here. Maybe it’s my toilet’s way of saying, “Suck it up buttercup.” Or perhaps it’s saying, “Sometimes you have to roll up your sleeves and do some dirty work for things to flow better.” Or maybe it’s simply saying, “Some days are poopy and linger for a while, but eventually they go away.”

It’s like it’s some weird metaphor for life… I just haven’t figured it out yet.
