But that's hardly the important bit. I mean, I've had better weeks and I've had...well, I swear to god, my life feels like a movie now. Suddenly, the past is back to haunt me ( Read more... )

I've finally had it with Bank of America. I've just found out that they enter your daily transactions from highest to lowest - so that if you overdraft, you rack up as many overdraft charges as possible.

The tonsilitis has finally cleared up, although my throat sort of generally feels scratchy. Maybe I can chronic beinganidiotandsmokinganddrinkingtoomuchitis. It's technical ( Read more... )

I think I have tonsilitis again. Although I think it's clearing up on its own this time (for the record, my throat felt so good I forgot I was taking antibiotics for it and missed, like, a week).

The day is looking sort of glum outside.  Inside, I'm feeling oddly accomplished.  I shouldn't be, not really.  But I'm collecting recipes for pumpkin dishes (having six pumpkins in the house, you bet your ass we're going to use them).  Pasties, pies, pumpkin and chicken chowder, bisque, bread, juice... that all makes me happy.  I love cooking.  I' ( Read more... )

Recovered mostly from my cold.  Still congested and sniffling - I still can't bring myself to have a cigarette, though I did have a few drinks over the weekend.  I'm actually sort of afraid I only managed a temporary victory and my cold is coming back.  Which means I need to step up the constant vigilance.  Hot water and lemon juice, days ago you ( Read more... )
