I made it to the grocery store, which I've been putting off for about a week and a half, so that's a win.
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I probably should get dressed and go bring some stuff to electronic recycling, but I don't feel like it.

I have decided that I will bring plenty of DayQuil with me and hang out with friends, with the no-guilt option to bail out at any time should I start feeling worse.

I just woke up. Again. I mean, that I got up, had breakfast, spoke on the phone to a friend, listened to a podcast and then I must have fallen asleep for a few hours because I woke up and it was after 2 pm. Very disconcerting.

I did that too, except I wasn't asleep, I was lying in bed feeling like I was going to barf. Happily mr. flea managed the children AND did the taxes while I was down, and while I'm still kinda wobbly I think vomit is not longer on the agenda. Also, as usual, we get a nice fat refund, thanks to our little deductions.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
sumi, me too, and it was sleep. Which is kind of nuts because I slept 13 hours last night. Now I'm foggy and a bit cranky and trying to get motivated. So I'm listening to Violent Femmes.

Yeah, I feel like I lost a good part of the day. I'm not even sure how long I was asleep.
At least the crick in my neck seems to have gone.

That sucks, flea! Anti-nausea to you. Hate that feeling.
I am trying to decide what to do this evening--I have an appointment south of town, and texted a friend down there, but he is out of town. I could go to contradancing. And may--I'm annoyed at my body for not only feeling creaky and achey, but for only losing half a pound this week. I mean, really. What's the point in all the dieting and feeling constrained on food, if I'm not losing any weight?!?
And screw Valentine's Day. And all the couple-ness. And people who are having sex. ...OK now I'm just getting grumpy and unreasonable.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I just went and had my acrylic nails soaked off because my own bitten-off nails finally grew out underneath them. Then I got a gel manicure. I don't know what it is, but it is a super-modern nail polish which is supposed to last 2-3 weeks and it's shiny. Gel FTW.

I went grocery shopping. Why does a bag of baby spinach with bacon bits and croutons cost less per pound than a bag of plain baby spinach? It was a pretty significant difference, too.
