Ups and downs
Just had to move all my feeds to DW, seeing as LJ keeps dumping several days worth on me at a time. Four entries of Pioneer Woman, about half a dozen of cake wrecks, plus a few others, some image heavy, means my flist utterly refuses to load at all. So, they're all over at DW now.

Watched Tim DeKay's ep of CSI the other day. Kept getting disoriented - not because he was a murdering bastard, but because his character's name was Neil.
*
Have knitted all the bits for the Alan Dart Thomas the Tank Engine. Assembly is gonna be a nightmare. There are fifty-odd individual pieces. Still have a bunch more Christmas knitting to do. I figure people will get their stuff eventually.
*
Rereading Urban Shaman by C.E. Murphy and really liking it. I own the sequel, but I'm gonna have to either borrow or buy the four others. If the library has them, it'll be borrow. I can't really afford to buy them right now.
*
Adjusting my meds again, hoping to get a better control on my anxiety. Some is causal, some is completely without cause. I've cut way down on the caffeine because it was contributing to it, but also, I was getting palpitations again. I can do without that bullshit. So, yeah. We'll see if it works, if not, I may have to go see a shrink, which I'd rather not do, because I think I've pretty much tapped out the usefulness of the talking therapy vein. I know it's brilliant for some people, but by sixteen I'd really had about enough.

Got the new Sherlock Holmes book and the second Stephen Fry bio off layby, so they're added to the reading pile. Plenty of ebooks downloaded lately to read, too. Recently read -
* The Book of Flying by Keith Miller
* Tithe by Holly Black
Also got The Book Thief from a charity shop and Trace by Sam Starbuck in dead tree format from
lefaym for Christmas. I'll likely be reading the latter to Emma aloud, as has been our custom with Sam's stuff ever since we found Cartographer's Craft (which remains my personal HP Book 7 canon).
