Parliament Funkadelic. If only the George Clinton kind.

I believe I am in a funk.
Strike that. I know I am in a funk.
I am in a funkadelic parliament of what I can only describe
as a cluster-fungoul of funk.

I have tried many things over the course of the summer
to pull me out of doldrum depths: 
1. Went out on the town with my closest and best girlfriends
2. Shopped for a new car
3. Colored my hair
4. I even jumped on a plane to a tropical beach for the week

I ended up with:
1. Admirations from the mentally ill
2. An arm wrestling smackdown with a car salesman
3. Blotched-up hair
4. A smackdown with Hurricane Fay
5. A full bottle of perfume just waiting to be sprayed on the back of my
    neck for my secret crush to inhale while…
    oops, sorry, had to get my gratuitous plug in for the secret crush

I am left with two choices: 
 1. Pull a Forrest Gump - run in one direction as far and as hard as I can 
     with Korn cranked up to 11
 Or
 2. Go back to my original idea of becoming a 
      beer-and-cheese-making monk.

Perhaps, one and two together?

    There you are miss Josie. I've been worried about you.
    Ahh...the funk. I know it well. I would say the one thing missing from your list is karaoke, but that is my medicine, and truly not for everyone. I say try out match, see what happens...you never know, your blogs could become as nauseating as mine. Though I hope even when you do land the great guy you deserve that you don't become the sap that I am. I hope you get out of your funk soon. Besides karaoke I think a healthy dose of exercise mixed with girl's nights out are the key to any funk fix.

    I agree w/date girl. Try match or bouncephone to alleviate your boredom. If nothing else, you'll have some great material to post. We've all been there. This too shall pass.
