Besides a couple stupid parts, this trip was awesome, and we will definitely be going out again.

More later when I'm not exhausted and about to faceplant on my keyboard, but here's something we got to watch.

So, we are about to head out and have our first real vacation type thing ever... even if it is just a weekend.

Camping at Rock Island.

I can't wait.

In other news, Coffee and tea are yummy, and I've been up since 5 yesterday morning (two one hour naps aside). Work pushes suck. Lissa snuggles are yummy.

It's amusing enough to do personality quizzes for me, because I can never really answer most of the questions fairly. I actually think I have a much more nuanced view and method of interacting with the world than they let me express. Yes I can be a bit of an ass and sorta hardline, but that doesn't mean I don't value empathy and other things too ( Read more... )

I woke up at 5:30 yesterday morning shaking and shivering, even though I was under a comforter and an electric blanket. My joints ached, my temples were throbbing in pain from the sinus backup, I was coughing up my right lung, and taking a bath only made it worse. Two Ibuprofen, a great deal of discomfort, and one shower with the hot water ( Read more... )
