I feel like I don't post anything exciting or happy anymore; though, in my own defense, the past year has been kind of crummy (finances, illnesses, medical bills, crappy job, relationships). This week I broke up with my boyfriend. Then, on Wednesday, my grandmother fell and broke her hip. After taking her to the hospital, early tests indicated ( Read more... )

Well, maybe that's an exaggeration. But still.

I got offered a job at the comic shop last Thursday, in what was like a 4-second conversation with the owner. I said I'd think about it, and over the course of the next, oh, 24 hours, I decided I would give it a try. Finally ran into the owner again on Saturday, accepted the job and started Sunday. I ( Read more... )

I think everyone's having trouble adjusting to the time change. Also, it seems that almost everyone I run into or talk to is severely ill. I've managed to steer clear so far, and I'm hoping I'll continue to be so lucky.

My laptop (which I'm using right now) decided it didn't feel like working properly yesterday. No matter what I did the battery ( Read more... )

My hormones are a flippin' mess-- they've sucked since November (when, it seems, my anemia started trying to snuff me out), normalized the day after my blood transfusion (Dec. 22nd), and have been schizophrenic ever since. Cramps, stabby pains, funny body changes (today my bra isn't fitting so well-- again)... I just want it to stop. I've been so ( Read more... )

Gah. My nose is clogged and chapped and it feels like something's gnawing on my right ovary.  Seriously, is the week over yet?

My writer's block seriously sucks. I have about 4 good story plots in my head and I can't get any of them on paper.

I'm goin' to sleep :(.

I have this unexplainable desire to see 27 Dresses. The reviews are terrible but I never see chick flicks. Plus, James Marsden looks adorable as hell in the previews. I could almost forgive him for playing Cyclops in the X-Men movies.

I'm feeling under the weather today -- lethargic and blah. I considered trying to go home early to get some meds but ( Read more... )

This has been the longest 4-day week ever. We haven't even reached day 4 yet!

I had a "coaching session" at work today about how I *might* have phrased something. It's a long, mind-numbing and pointless story. The coaching session, even more so.

Then I came home to discover that my insurance company has not decided if my overnight stay in the ( Read more... )

Well, this post is quite late, but it's already been a crazy year. I ended 2007 with an overnight stay in the hospital and three blood transfusion for what turned out to be a severe case of anemia, and basically went straight from the hospital to my parents' house for Christmas and then back to work again right after that. I've made a pretty rapid ( Read more... )

 For as much as I don't enjoy this Daylight Savings early darkness, there was a really beautiful sunset when I left work today -- periwinkle-blue sky, fluffy clouds and a tiny sliver of the moon. It descended into darkness very quickly thereafter, but was beautiful while it lasted ( Read more... )
