All of the stars have finally aligned and I don't feel like shit. I've had REALLY aggressive cramps this time around with my cycle. So that was Monday. Then on Tuesday I finally began to the feel the effects of the oak pollen and it was awful. Suddenly it felt like my entire chest was filled with the accursed yellow stuff. Both nights I slept poorly and had to take random naps during the day just to function.
Today though, today the uterus is under control, and I've given up and taken allergy pills. I still don't like to believe that I have allergies. In my mind it's not that I'm having an allergic reaction, it's just that there's SO MUCH particulate matter in the air that my lungs are giving up. But it could be ANY particulate matter in the air that's as prevalent as the oak pollen this year. Be it ash, powdered sugar, Nick Jonas's musk, 1459 grains of something per cubic meter of air is a BIT MUCH.
Or at least that's my opinion.
But I went to the gym yesterday. Had grapefruit juice (okay there was tequila in it, it was a Paloma). I took sleepy time allergy meds last night, took daytime allergy meds this morning. I got 7.5 hours of sleep last night. I'm feeling better. Not tip top, but better.
I meant to get some writing done last night, but I was feeling the exact opposite of sexy and might have been a little distracted by how fabulous Johnny Weir is. I mean, he showed up to a kids skating event in Harlem in big hair, a vintage YSL sequined blazer and carrying what
littledivinity tells me is a Balenciaga, top handle, giant work handbag in Cyclade. This is the first time that I've ever wanted to beat a man up for his purse.
(BTW: The other day (well month) I was complaining that Disney and Nickelodeon doesn't have a young out star? There's no frame of reference where kids can see a challenge to gender roles, sexuality roles in a normal, every day setting. I guess what I'm saying is I'm just glad that Johnny Weir is doing it for the kids, y'all. I mean his show is definitely not aimed at kids, he's still adult oriented. But yesterday's appearance and combined with how his TV show showed him coaching kids, and he blithely tells a fourteen year old girl, "And you're a taller girl. Like I was a tall girl once myself [blah, blah coaching tips]" And she didn't even blink. And the wee Harlem skaters gladly got into a picture with Johnny. IT WARMS THE HEART. idk, just A+ Johnny Weir.)
Tonight though! Tonight I'm going for a run (sexy) and getting half price wine with friends (also sexy) so I'm going to really give a another concubine fic a go (hopefully sexy).
