Random grumbles

It would really be nice to go for more than two days feeling fine. Sinus problems, colds, the usual monthly pains, etc. etc. Every time I feel good enough that I feel like I can start making progress on stuff rather than just barely managing to do the bare minimum, I get smacked with something else. Grrrr.

I could decide to start my project-a-week idea in February, or wait 'til my birthday or something, since I certainly didn't do much in January. I think what I'm going to do, though, is call it 52 projects in a year. Since I don't have anything started that's really close to being done, projects don't have to be started fresh to count, but they do have to be finished. And doing the backlog of mending counts as one project. Which would be really nice to get done soon, actually.

Before the next convention I attend, I want to get a battery powered fan and mod it steampunk style. Because I overheat too easily anyway. Plus costumes and a lot of people in a small space? Though spending Saturday evening at Confusion in the Cthulhu bra was at least pretty comfortable heat-wise. Also a ton of fun. I am responsible for many failed San checks. I decided that the sanity loss for the Cthulhu bra has to be 2d4. It has to be 2d, of course, for double d.

So anyway, instead of being productive this weekend, I've been sleeping a lot and getting over the worst of this cold. I'm now at the stage where the transition from laying down to sitting up, or vice versa, results in lots of hacking and coughing. Sitting up is generally happier for my lungs. But of course, my cramps don't want me sitting up. Grr. C'mon, bod, give me a break!
