Yoink!
I'm still being ridiculously emotional and weird-- it got really bad today. I went from being super up and happy to a slow fall yesterday and a big crash this morning, and a nagging paranoia (I get classic comic-book paranoia when I drink too much caffeine). Exercise alone doesn't seem to be fixing this, but I realise I've been drinking a lot of "decaf" tea, and my sleep really has been mixed up some, so who knows? Glad to finally have my obligations over with so I can spend an evening with Angus doing very little in the nice warm.
I may be getting sick, cause or effect? I really do not want to get the flu that's going around, but this seems to be in my throat and forehead, so we'll see where that takes me.
Beef stew tonight. So glad I made it Friday. Angus and I are having a snack-fest with pudding and good apple juice and such. There will be playing with baby rats and some champions online.
My Fang-O has stopped biting me, which makes me pretty happy. I almost got him killed today (did lazy/optimistic introductions with some other boys who went for this throat) as a reward. I'm gonna give him a day or two to heal up and then bring him with me places. He doesn't deserve to sit in a cage alone.
It's funny, even just sitting down to write calms me down. There's some self-analysis and perspective-placing that I can't do if I'm not talking to someone or writing, and I just auto-impose it when I open one of these windows to post. It's very relaxing, and I haven't been relaxed lately. My job situation is pretty much decided, there's a meeting on Tuesday with roommates to figure that out, so those are big serious issues that are finally wrapped up. Angus remains the sort of steady warmth, home-ness, and comfort that you'd expect from a good big hearthfire. The rest of my social life has been naggling at me, though, and I guess now it's time to work on that.
I've been noticing people's faces especially much lately. The corners of the mouth where they arrow up into cheeks with a smile, or crank crooked or sideways when they don't quite make it to a smile; little wrinkles around the eyes; the flight of cheekbones across a face; the arch and crinkle of the upper eyelid: these make me happy. I like looking at people.
Here's to a smooth week for me, and a good one for you. One more week till my semi-vacation!
