Happy birthday, Mac! 10!!! YIKES! No more single digits.
So I have a series of hives around the area where I had blood drawn on Thursday. Thoughts? Concerns? Ideas on how to make it go away without Benadryl?
Illyria: Wesley's dead. I'm feeling grief for him. I can't seem to control it. I wish to do more violence. Spike: Well, wishes just happen to be horses today.

Happy birthday, Mac!!
I have student loan debt that exceeds my annual income, but I feel like that's just another sign of being rich
Huh. I guess I am rich, then...? Because my loan debt is $117K. I think it's more a sign of me being slightly stupid about money, and too freakin' lazy about trying to get scholarships in my 20's.
Perkins, YAY! Thrilled for you!
I am ON SPRING BREAK! I am so excited, and kind of relaxed. It's a weird feeling, relaxed...

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That's weird, Kat. All I can think is maybe a reaction to the disinfectant they swab on you, or, if the needle and tube was taped down, the adhesive in the tape. I guess you'd probably know, at this point, if you had a sensitivity to latex. Maybe a baking soda paste on the hives would be soothing, or even help them go down?
Eta: I have a box of bees in my garage. They just got packaged up this morning and I am told that that makes them too riled up to try to get into the hive until tomorrow evening at the earliest, so, box of bees in the garage. It's pretty weird.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
As far as Aveda goes, their humectant pomade smells fresh and crisp and clean and I love it. Just about everything else of theirs I've smelt is a trigger, though.

I love the smell of Aveda's stuff, esp. the Confixor and the Madder Root Color Conditioner.
I just wish I could afford it more often. Oh, well, I should indulge this summer -- a bottle of Confixor lasts me about two years.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I forgot that tomorrow is Easter. The supermarket had way too many people.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Happy birthday, Mac! And my mom. We spent the day together -- choir rehearsal for tomorrow, brunch out, then the local crossword tournament. Fun! Now I need to wash the shirt I want to wear tomorrow and go to bed early.
Huh. I guess I am rich, then...?
Well, I think it really relates to what someone else said about the difference between broke and poor (rather than rich vs. poor, which was how I had originally set it up), and feeling like that is the kind of investment that is worthwhile in the long run.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Happy Birthday, Mac! Wow, 10!
but I'm being cuddle attacked by a Loki, so it is hard to get the motivation to leave the house....
Kittenish cuddle attacked this morning and I ended up staying in bed a lot longer because she was sweet and then I dozed back off.
Last night when I got in bed, something around me smelled good and I realized I'd used a touch of Aveda's hair spray when I clipped my hair back for a party yesterday. But I was unmotivated to get back up and post about it. Made me laugh though.
Yoga kicked my fanny last night. I feel Kat and I should have swapped classes. Hello, bronchitis, I clearly need to take slightly more chillax classes while I get my lungs back.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Bees!
That`s kinda all I got. I am otherwise split between feeling somewhat out of sorts because it`s the end of our pseudobreak and it`s super windy. I did get some but not all stuff done I wanted to. I guess if I finished off the bedroom? So I have church tonight and I may or may not be presenting on the disaster relief org my church is helping. I feel somehow about it. But I`m not sure which how.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Oh hello incomplete thought. Feeling split between out of sorts and relaxed.
