Riley ,'Help'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
So my right carpal tunnels (is that the term?) are giving me stab by pain. Might be my stroke, might be the red wine last night(it makes all my potentially achy parts ache), might be some weird transference/compensatory pain due to a deep scratch on my wrist.
Mixing 3 batches of cookie dough didn't really help. Rolling it out tomorrow isn't going to make it better.
Need a match?
Tempting.
It seems very unfair that I can't just spend my life lying on the couch watching TV. I realize that's not technically sustainable in the long term, but I could at least try.

Trade ya.
And now I feel worse.

AKA, "how does a child molester win $3 million in the lottery and I don't"?
I too am not feeling any love for the world. I don't feel Christmasy, we don't even have the tree up. My parents are stupidly hard to buy for and my brother suggested stopping presents all together. I have all this stuff I want to do, like chores need doing and fixit stuff and the decorating - just stuff in all categories - and then I also just want to sit and watch tv.
maybe if I put some stuff here I will shame myself.
Tonight I need to:
clean litter
deposit checks
pack up ebay things to ship
maybe find Holiday cards - or -
get tree out and assembled
I need to go over to Dad's place and put up Christmas decorations. But not tonight.
My office was pretty dead today, but there was a blood drive so I did a good thing.
Probably shouldn't have had two glasses of wine tonight, though.
Oh, and hey, I'm 50 yesterday. Which is weird. I don't feel half a century old.
Happy day after your birthday, 'Suela! I hope this is the start of a great decade for you.
Work is kicking my ass this week. Not quite to the point of tears but it was a near thing a few times today. I am thinking I will go straight to happy hour when I am done with the office tomorrow.
Happy birthday yesterday, Consuela.
My mood has been swinging rapidly from Fuck Everything And Its Horse to Life Is Good Look Birdies! for over a week now. I don't feel depressed but I'm still kinda acting depressed, what's up with that. And I really don't want to deal with the holidays. Next week I go on vacation, driving 8 hours both ways, to spend almost a week with my BFF and her teenage daughter, and lord, I don't want to. I want to see them, but I don't want to spend that much time away from my home and in someone else's. And my feet have been so swollen and numb and achy, I really don't want to go on a long drive. It will be utter misery if the doctor can't fix them. And then Christmas with my family, we'll only have one day that everyone's together, and I should be sad we don't have more time instead of feeling like why are we even bothering. Ugh. So not in the festive spirit. I guess I'll just get drunk a lot.
