Mishmash post
(-) It's raining heavily today, and I slept awfully, and can the deadlines please, please, PLEASE ease up? (No. No, because we're going to Ontario in two weeks, and while the deadlines themselves aren't quite that soon, I'm entertaining hopes of getting two full rewrites done by then.)
(+) But today's work, at least, is set to mostly be proofreading the lettering for Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer 8, which is pretty much the best work I could hope for, because a) I love the series and b) lyschan is such a kickass letterer.
(-) I wound up with some significant anxiety yesterday, although it didn't fully hit until late evening, mostly after
scruloose, Kas, and I had left Chez
wildpear after having a movie night (which was fun!). The anxiety's lingering today. :/ And unfortunately there are external factors over which I have zero control (and don't have time to talk about, because work. Maybe later).
(+) Claudia and Jinksy turn two this weekend! HOW?! (And if I feel this way about our kittens--and our friends' kids--I can hardly wrap my head around parents must feel about their own kids. O_O)
(+) I've barely seen our friend Nico at all in the last while (this year, really, since a family situation kept her from going on retreat, and I've been at Casual Job, andandand...), but I ran into her twice this week, including taking the bus downtown yesterday when I was on my way to the office. Amazing what a difference just being companionable with a beloved person for the fifteen-minute morning commute can make to the start of the day.
(And she's coming over for a little while this afternoon to ransack my bookcases, so three times this week! I'll start counting fresh tomorrow, when we'll both be at Chez
wildpear, because Pumpkin has decided she really wants to have a spring party, and spring is running out.)
