DAY TWENTY-THREE:  What Makes Me Feel Better

When I'm upset it often takes quite a bit to get me to calm down...  The best thing is often a lot of small things.  There's really only one thing that can make me feel better almost instantaneously...and that's Cory.  If I'm really upset, talking to him makes me feel SO much better.  Particularly if he knows I'm upset and I talk about it.  If I'm stubborn and just hide it, then it takes me a little longer to loosen back up again...but not much.

It's amazing, because, other than him, people can't make me feel better.  You can ask my best friend who lived with us this summer, and usually when I'm really upset about something, people just make it worse.  It's the only time I really need to be alone.

But, somehow, Cory is different.  Just his voice starts calming me down RIGHT  AWAY.  It's so weird...and I love it...because when I'm really upset I know I can always call him and he doesn't mind AND I'll feel better.

Other things that help to make me better is food...particularly snacky food...and movies.  The movies distract me, and food is very much a comfort thing.  :)
