I keep typing things out and then just deleting it all. Nothing seems right to say ( Read more... )

Due to my illness, I've been asleep far more than I've been awake. I think I was awake for maybe 6 hours out of the past 24. It's the most sleep I've gotten in maybe ever, but I'm still exhausted. Here's a couple of the dreams I had though. The second is particularly weird.

Oh, if I had the icon space on LJ, I'd go absolutely nuts. If I actually had the money, I could possiblymaybe see somehow reasoning to myself that my life would be greatly improved by being able to have 100 icons. I need constant change in my visual stimulation. I'm always rotating out my icons and have to resist doing that even more often than I ( Read more... )

Even though I've been following Felicia Day (I fell in love with her through Dr. Horrible) on Twitter for a while, I only just checked out The Guild, a web series created and starred in by her.

Was that enough links for everyone?

Anyway, The Guild is hilarious. Unfortunately, I could only find the first season available on YouTube, and the only ( Read more... )

I got my letter of determination from the Social Security Administration today. I've been denied disability ( Read more... )

My dream was one of those where I wasn't really in it, I was just observing everything. A man had been in an accident and was in the hospital. He seemed to be comatose. His mother stayed at his bedside for much of the time, was begging for him to wake up and be all right. She would sing a few lines from a song to him every hour, on the hour. I ( Read more... )

Geli: I am easily pleased.

Me: And easily amused. You know... you're pretty easy, Angelica.

Everyone laughed -- except Mom, though she looked somewhat amused. Maybe.

Me: It's Mom's worst nightmare! I'm sorry... it was too easy.

We all cracked up (even Mom, that time), though I apologized after for the terrible, horrible pun, because I really only ( Read more... )

I woke up, looked up... and saw a black spider bigger than my hand dangling from a thread above my bed. Luckily, closer to the ceiling than to me. I freaked, scrambling out of my bed while never taking my eyes off of it. Somewhere during my scramble, it simply disappeared ( Read more... )

Today, I did some cleaning about the house. I'm realizing more and more how hard it is to judge the amount I should limit myself to. I can work and feel no severe pain, nothing getting particularly worse than the levels of pain I started out with... and then, a couple of hours later, it all hits. I was fine and then BAM, my legs were absolutely ( Read more... )

I've been reading poetry anthologies, grabbing various ones from the library. It's been a while since I've done this and I forgot how much I love it. It's a really good way for me to find a variety of poets to enjoy. Like sampling from a bakery. I've been putting a sticky note on the inside cover and then writing down any poet and poem that I fall ( Read more... )
