Faking it: My Decemopment

11/18/2015

I can't adult today 
I'm too busy having a decemopment.

Decemopment? That's not a word.

Yes it is. I made it up and defined it yesterday after accidentally mistyping 'development' and autocorrect saying "I got nothing."

Decemopment:noun (des-eh-mop-ment) 1. That overwhelming feeling of "I just can't anymore." 2. A sense of depression or elation without reason. 3. Suddenly becoming overly emotional to the point you need a mop to clean up all the tears.

It could be a happy or a sad thing. It would really apply to those soldier videos where they surprise their family members and everyone turns into a puddle of tears.

Or it could happen when you find out your boyfriend is cheating on you and you break all of things/burn all of his clothes before dissolving into a puddle of tears...

Either way, tears are probably involved.

Today I'm fighting my own decemopment. It's been a rough month and a half and my psyche is fighting all the upheaval.
Long story short, everyone is gone. Long story a little bit longer...my best friend moved away and now my Brosef (the best brother that ever lived) is gone for 5 weeks in the boonies where I can't talk to him. *pouts*

Top that off with other drama (divorce, broken hearts, health crises) and I am pretty sure the zombie apocalypse is about to happen.
Maybe that's just me.
Or maybe that's because Walking Dead will start again soon. *Shudders*

Either way, I'm totally faking it today. Smile. Nod. Rinse. Repeat.

Any of you having a decemopment moment? Sound off in the comments. Ten points for Gryffindor if you use decemopment in a casual conversation today.

If you were curious:
Adjective: Decemopey: "I'm sad and decemopey today."
Verb: Decemope: "Can we decemope together? I'm having a rough day."
Adverb: Decemopely: "He sniffled decemopely, tears streaming down his face and leaving tracks in the dirt smudged on his cheeks."

Thank you to Katie Cross for unintentionally creating the verb form of this word. Let's all band together and get it in the dictionary! Hey, Twerk is in there, why can't our word be in there, too?

Ah! so that is what it is!! Divorced/new-old town/bff is in Virginia (long story)/trying to get bff here for a visit (another long story)/feeling lonely/bored/spending too much time with my computer and not enough with humans. GAH!!! I better write this one down - complete with definitions - old age is creeping up and I'll never remember. But, hey - there is a new beginning tomorrow!! Pull up my big girl panties and Cowgirl Up!

Ugh! So much YES! I've never been married, but my parents just went through a divorce over the last two years. Since this was written, my baby brother moved away permanently and I totally know how all of that feels.
I hope your bff can come for a visit :)
Also, you can do it!! Some days are decemopey, but others will be fantastic and sunshiny, once you reach them.

You got this :)
