the let-down

This is the part I dread - the inevitable CRASH.

The unpacking and laundry done, the desk "pile" sorted, followups and thank-you notes written, establishment of what's next, etc.

But I cannot deny the customary post-adventure depression that has set in - sometimes for a day, sometimes for a week, depending on the amount of buildup beforehand. It just puts me on hold, and it's difficult to motivate myself to even exercise.

But exercise I must, because this feeling will pass, and when it does, I'll be ready for the next adventure - and glad to have at least stayed healthy and organized in preparation for it.
