Killing Time in Spades

Dec 19, 2004 18:08

Read some more of Catalyst. Am enjoying it so far, but the writing style is doing truly bizarre things to my brain and/or thought processes.

I am so very hungry right now. All I've had to eat today is two pieces of buttered wheat toast and a small piece of cheesecake. I need to wait about another half hour or so until dinner, though. We're having chicken dijon.
I wonder if I'm developing an eating disorder. Does anyone know if there's an eating disorder where you fluctuate wildly between eating hardly anything and then eating tons of junk when you're not even hungry?

My computer ate my Dracula background (that one picture where he's leaning over Frankenstein's trunk and looking all angsty and wicked), to my supreme annoyance. I would have set it up again, but I deleted all my archived pictures of him (except the icons) the other day, just to make sure any future computer problems cannot be blamed on me hoarding too many Dracula pictures (not as crazy as it sounds when you consider the last crash was a result of me saving too many Xena WAVs). It's not that I don't like having lots of Dracula pictures saved for my convienance, it's just that I hardly ever take the time to properly ogle them. So really, they're just cluttering needless hard-drive space. If I want to go drool over him, I can always pop in my Van Helsing DVD or search for some images online/at Hollow/on the van_dracula forum.
So my new desktop is one of those things that came with the computer, called "Ascent". It's a full moon rising over a very blue mountaintop. I like it...reminds of that Blue Moon Mountain book I used tp have. Or do I still have it? Maybe it's tucked away somewhere.

Rachel continues to not call me. According to Lauren she is A) not dead and B) having problems with her "boyfriend" to the point where she's moving back to her mother's, so I am concluding that she is still able to call me but too busy to do so and will give me a ring when she has the chance. Lauren's also giving her a message to call me when she can, just so we can hook up since I haven't seen her since my play, and I have a holiday present for her.
I'll be getting together with Lauren tomorrow to continue the pretend adventures of Izzy and Ebbie. We'll be going to Mayfield library to look for the Tome of Power of the necromancer that sent those zombies after us.

I spent the majority of the day in my pajamas. Then I took a bath so hot I could see my foot going from white to red when I first got into the tub. Felt good, as things here are very cold. Scrubbed like crazy, then shaved. Now I feel all nice and smooth.

I feel rather bored.
I don't feel like reading more of Catalyst or starting any of my other books.
I don't feel like starting any of the school stuff I have to do yet.
Nobody is online to talk to me, except Chrissy, and she let Ragnarok eat her god-damned soul so she never has any time to talk or say much of anything anymore.
There is no interesting fanfic to read.
Nothing is new at any of my boards or communities.
I have run out of books to recommend (for now, anyway).
It's too cold and snowy to leave the house, and I don't feel like leaving anyway. Nobody to do anything with anyhow.

Maybe I'll work some more on Damned & Devoted...see if I can finish it tonight...

boredom, computer woes, van helsing, reading, xena
