Yay new thread!

New thread!

hugs everyone tight, just because.

Yeah, I like the thought of kicking a little demon ass.

Sleep and health ~ma to everyone, and Sean, I'll add my voice to those who say a 50K job in Atlanta with full bennies beats being broke in LA, no contest.

I'm slowly recovering from whatever the hell attacked my guts last week, and slowly recovering my appetite. I still think it was stress, or something that I could have handled easily if not for the stress. The Issue From Hell of the Journal Of Suffering is almost complete. I managed to get the house reasonably clean before my sister and her BF arrived. We watched a Norwegian movie that was billed as a wacky comedy, but was actually one of the bleakest and most pointlessly depressing things I've ever watched. Also included a gratuitous close-up of the complete birth of a human baby, crowning to splorch, which made me swear to never have sex again.

The almost-inevitable result of my vowing never to diet again, and to simply Eat Food, is that I've gained 15 pounds and am almost back to the heaviest I've ever been. I have dealt with this by buying larger clothes and a comfy pair of walking shoes. Moving on.

I'm glad to hear you are feeling at least a little better, Zen.

Though I love Scandinavian cinema in general, I tend to hew to the Danish end of the spectrum generally less depressing.

Ha! Thanks.

I'm going back to bed.

I'm in!

Matilda had her last soccer game today, and Emmett's high school team had their last game today where they failed to make the playoffs for the first time in a long time.

We started off well (5-0) but regressed as the season went on, and the hitting completely disappeared at times and the defense got quite shoddy.

So he's got a few weeks off to finish the school year and enjoy prom, and then he'll start travel team ball around June 20th.

The comic Scandinavia and the World addresses this.

Hola! I am having a really good weekend! I spent the night at my friends's place; got sunshine watching her girl at soccer practice, then we sat on the deck, gabbed and got kinda hammered on Cosmos. But I slept from midnight to 8! Amazing. Good coffee and breakfast and sun on the deck, then I met a friend for a meditation class at the studio she teaches at.

It was great, and the teacher let me stay for the next deep stretch class for free. Mini-spa! There were just two poses I couldn't do yet, and I had to modify a couple, but yay! I have missed it so much!

I have one of my BF's 40th bday shindig tonight; it's a little cool, but sunny. There will be a ton of yummy food, and I am going to dress up for the first time in ages.

Oh! I did dye my hair, and it's is FUCKING RED. Blazing; I love it. And I gave myself a pedi; I feel magically delicious!

It's so nice to feel good. And people are so kind.

Glad to hear you're doing well, Strix.
