LJ seems to be having a minor resurgence, which makes me quite happy. I'd missed interacting with some of my favorite peeps. That means I also need to remember to post more frequently. Hence, the headslap icon. :D

( New, not-so-new, and old news. Now with less whining. )

I feel like I'm moving uphill with my mood, but very slowly and with a 50 pound rock on my back. I know it takes a while for a med change to completely take effect, but it's the pits waiting it out to see if the dosage change is adequate. I'd say my overall mood is better, but I've been fighting off anxiety attacks for most of the week. Something ( Read more... )

I am exhausted from the weekend and actually looking forward to going to work tomorrow. I've been running, running, running all weekend and feeling overwhelmed, even though I'm looking forward to the holidays.

I bought matting and a frame for the hand-inked picture and that is all assembled; everything complements the picture and I think the giftee will get a bang out of it. The hand-made box is beginning its journey and now has a single coat of color along the outside. I am debating either painting the inside or papering it. Until the first coat dries, ( Read more... )

Man, that big bang really sucked all the life out of me; I honestly don't know if I'm going to try that again or not. I was so down in the dumps when I was done that I considered calling up my doctor to ask her to put me back on anti-depressant/bipolar meds. I may still do that; winter can fuck with me pretty bad. Just because I'm currently in a ( Read more... )

At last, I have found a plot for my trekreversebang story! Yay! Now, to start writing. Thank heaven I only need 6000 words for this one. Also, huge thanks to Firefly for having the perfect story to riff off of. :D Anybody up for having Spock being burned at the stake for being a witch? Heheeee!

( Year in summary according to my LJ/DW posts. )

Best to start off strong, so today's list:

• Balance checkbook and spreadsheet

• Run dishwasher

• Deep clean kitchen - all the counters, cupboard fronts, stove hood, splashboards gotten. Used the wet swiffer on the floor this time, will use real mop next time. Dumped crumb tray from toaster oven. Not too shabby.

• Laundry - one load, better ( Read more... )

of the beast that's been humping mine like freebies at the local whorehouse. I've been so caught in my own head, lately, with nasty dark thoughts that just would not stop. My sleep schedule got all whacked out and I've had to resort to Ambien the past couple of nights to try and get myself back on a more natural cycle. Still not feeling even close ( Read more... )

Don't know where it came from, but yesterday was just not a stellar day for the most part. I don't know if it was the anniversary of 9/11 or just that the communists invaded and that always drops me down in the dumps the first couple of days, but I spent most of yesterday with that head-achey feeling of pressure behind your eyes like you want to ( Read more... )
