Stuff

Lucy just made the biggest puke ever, right in front of me. Twice.

Ew.

Chris comes back tonight, so ends my four days of no work, no people, just peace and quiet. I had a very pleasant long weekend.

Friday
– Woke up at 9, read, bathed, went and got a 90 minute massage.
– Came home, read, wrote, relaxed.

Saturday
– Got up early afternoon, bathed, went to counseling, then ran errands, and spent the rest of the evening all by myself.

Sunday
– Got up at 1pm, played on the computer, read, and relaxed all day.
– Worked on revisions.

Monday
– Got up at 1pm, watched The OC on DVD, read, and relaxed.

Going back to work was hard. But it wasn’t crazily busy, and so that was cool. I couldn’t wait to get home to the peace and quiet, though. Heh. This morning, my across-the-street neighbor came to check on me and make sure I was doing okay.

Now I have just a little bit of time before life starts going back to its normal breakneck speed. Thank GOD for the R&R, but I’m sure gonna miss it.

Whew.

With the lovely Cyn’s (cyn2write) help, I just cut 33 pages from Becoming Me.

I seriously commend her for being so patient to get through all of it. I think there is more work to do, but I think I have a good start. Yay.

I need a glass of wine. :)

POOP!

I hate when I squeeze my brain to produce words and I realize that because of some later research, I have to scrap them all because what I wrote is not accurate.

BOO!!!!

FYI:

Last night I:

– Made bacon and hot cereal (Malt-O-Meal)
– Went downstairs and chilled in the (now just slightly lived-in) family room
– Wrote and watched the OC. WAY too much of The OC.
– Read

Tonight, I will:

– Write
– Watch more of The OC
– Finish reading The DaVinci Code

:D

A Good Day

The cats tried to wake me up at 5am today. I was having none of that. I rolled over and slept until about 7, which is when I usually get up. I rolled over again and got up a bit after 9am. Nice.

I took a long bath, played on the computer, and got all dolled up (not really) for my massage. And the MASSAGE. Oh my God. It was 90 minutes of heaven. She really worked out some tough kinks. I still feel extremely relaxed and ready for either a nap or a Yoga session. I went to Gentle Wind, which is a new-age type center. They have lots of neat things to buy, and I picked up some crystals, a Tai-Chi DVD, some incense, a faerie figurine, and a surprise for Ivy (swankivy). Now, I’m kind of farting around, doing laundry, and trying to make some decisions.

Decision #1 – What to eat?
– Order a pizza
– Make spaghetti
– Make bacon and hot cereal
– Cold cereal

Decision #2 – Location
– Do I want to go downstairs and chill out in the (CLEAN) family room, or stay up here in the bedroom?
– Do I want to go shopping later or stay home, where it’s warm?

Decision #3 – Activities
– Write
– Watch The OC
– Nap
– Yoga or Pilates or Tai Chi
– Read
– Take it easy

Man, if only life were always like this. :)

Tagged!

I’ve been tagged by tanyaleestone, but I did this on my bananagirl journal–I’m just going to copy the answers from there. ๐Ÿ˜€

Ground Rules: The first player of this “game” starts with the topic “5 weird habits of yours” and people who get tagged need to write a LJ entry about their 5 quirky habits as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose the next 5 people to be tagged and list their names.

1. I like to play with earlobes, but they have to be the non-connected kind. Luckily, Aidan and Chris both have detached earlobes.

2. I can play Boggle on the computer for HOURS.

3. I will latch onto a favorite food and eat it over and over and over and over and over.

4. I love writing, but sometimes I avoid doing it because it’s so emotional and draining–but also because it’s weird to be feeling so much joy when I’m doing something.

5. I obsess over songs. If I find a favorite, I will listen to it ever and over and over and over.

Tagging: WHOMEVER!!! Have fun! ๐Ÿ˜€
