Still managed to be productive a bit. Mom woke up sick, unfortunately, so I spent part of the day looking after her, also doing two weeks worth of laundry that I hadn't been able to get to, due to working a lot and having a lot of errands to run when I wasn't at work ( Read more... )

That Time of the Month hit me during Mass, but I'd been bracing myself for it (seems to happen that way, which puzzles me to no end), and it came as a bit of a relief since it had done the whole imminence thing for the past three days. Left me feeling tired and crampy, but a long nap and some chamomile tea with a *big* tablespoon of honey put me ( Read more... )

Busy, busy day today. Finished cleaning the bathroom before heading out to work this afternoon ( Read more... )

My left arm still feels sore after the flu shot yesterday: I rolled on it while sleeping and woke myself up with the pain caused by that. Had an appointment with ye therapist: she's pleased to hear I may well have found a network in which to get started with my writing (ie. the New England Horror Writers) and also asked, in an intelligent way, what ( Read more... )

Quiet day again today, though I did start dusting off some of the stories I can file the serial numbers off, perhaps for publication, in particular, the Muraki/random goth clubgirl who tries to get him to chew on her, when he dun feed that way. I want to make it about stereotypes and expecting everyone who classes themself as a certain type to act ( Read more... )

Started early this morning (after not a lot of sleep, thanks to my sinuses getting messed up), heading out to the bank to take care of withdrawing some funds, which I needed for a dental appointment later in the morning. Clean bill of dental health, complete with x-rays: no new cavities, no causes for concern, thank goodness; I just need to stay on ( Read more... )

Icon should be "You. Out of my house." More rodents rampaging in my walls. Barely got three hours of sleep, and I had to be up early for Mass. The wretched things seem to instinctively know when I need to get up early. Thank heavens Father Rizzo has a loud, penetrating (as he would call it "Sicilian") voice, I had no trouble staying awake. Dad has ( Read more... )

As in I am out of spoons for the day ( Read more... )

At least for the ones I've gotten used to: woke up later than usual after a really rough night coughing. Nasty chest congestion, though at least it's not enough to really have me floored. As long as I stay upright, it doesn't get too annoying, but if I lay down flat, it gets touch and go. I was thinking we'd missed the alarm again, but it turned ( Read more... )

Still recuperating from the wretched cough, managed to run some errands today (buying vitamins, getting my hours). Also got a sizable chunk of the housework done before my energy started petering out. Finished watching the final season of "House M.D." and... wow... Tough to let it go since I've been running through the series for the past several ( Read more... )
