Is anyone going to be around tonight? Is there the possibility of any kind of online socializing or game playing of any type? Let me know! I am going to go lie down for a bit, and then finish collecting things to include in a Mystery Letter. And probably, also, at some point, I shoudl have dinner, yes? :)
Through sheer force of will (and shopping*), and maybe a few other little secret tricks, I have made myself be in a better mood! Now I am just sort of sleepy (I blame the cold), but that's okay. thats' what naps are for right? And I have other things that are exciting that I can do if no one *is* around, so it is okay. I can work on the next section of my Daniel story, make my hotpants (!!! They are SO HOT!) or read more letters about Blackbeard and the shiftiness of Tobias Knight, the colonial secretary of North carolina in 1718, and also the customs commissioner! Its exciting stuff. You known your colony has a problem when another governor has to come in and get rid of the pirates, and *your* governor gets upset! History is so nifty :D
*shopping: my plague addled brain decided that it had had enough of reading letters for the time being, and that there were some things that I could/should go get up at the mall. I took the bus! It was about an hour, round trip, of being on the bus, for about an hour of being in a shopping area. I browsed through the mall. It was a mall. Then I crossed the street and went to K-Mart (Wow, they still have those? It survives in a city with a 24-hour Walmart? I'm impressed!)! I bought a new bookbag (blue!), some shorts (blue also, for the gym. Hard to work out in skirts, ne?), an umbrella covered with postcards of famous historical landmarks (a nod to my mom, who never believed in drab looking umbrellas), two! pairs of knee high socks (1 white, 1 black), and some white tights (2 kinds to try) for my costume. No longjohns to be found, alas.
That's all! *huggles*
