post-field crash

I may as well own up to it... I've been not just stressed, but fighting depression on-and-off for a few days. Not terribly sociable, and I've had my selfish and antisocially insular moments. I need to apologize to several people I've hurt in the meanwhile.

Reasons? I don't know... every time in the past few years that I return to mundane reality at home after a long trip testing something in a faraway place, I seem to get cranky and depressed about 3-5 days afterward. That, plus this time I received three different rejections of various social sorts from individuals, clustered in the same 5 days after I returned from the field, giving me ample fodder to beat up on myself. And take it out on those nearer and dearer... sigh. My bad.

I could tell something was up.

Joe sometimes has post-artshow crashes, this sounds similar.

For a big, preplanned show, I'd think it would be similar. Not just anticlimactic, but an abrupt landing.
