I went to work, at least, though I had terrible insomnia last night. I blame the cold meds. I was out for two hours and then basically didn't get any real sleep after that, just dozing.

Am 7eps in to Stranger Things 2! I'm enjoying it a lot!

Trying to start socks with mixed results.

Tomorrow someone is coming to look at the 3d printer.

Also there has been a slow but steady leak since the new dishwasher was installed.

I continue to believe that they will get fixed at the same time, or not at all.

Stayed home from work.... don't really feel much better. We'll see what tomorrow brings.

No game tonight bcause too many others were also sick.

I tried to start some socks but messed them up because sick.

Weh

But still sick. Coughing, head full of grossness. Bleh.

BUT! I FINISHED Pulled by the Sunset!

( WITNESS MEEEEEE! )

I started that in.... late January. Maybe mid February by the time I actually had the beads? It needs washing and blocking which will be....an adventure because I have no idea where to do it or how I will find the materials for it! But it is pretty anyway.

I had Diablotin, and also got my yarn wound for some socks, for the next of my larp socks, and for dad's Christmas gift. And some stash pics. And I made banana bread with my also plague-ridden nephews.

And I drank a lot of tea, and hot lemon with ginger and honey. Which I am, in fact doing right now.

Stupid cold :/

I'm sick :(

Slept half the afternoon. Wrote a little thing. Should be in bed. Going there now!

Flu shots, that is. I went with a friend after work to get one, and then we went out for Thai food before knitting.

I have officially started the last chart of Pulled by the Sunset! I got 8 rows in, and might have done more, except I'm super tired and probably the shot didn't help. Or the Mai Tai, which was really delicious.

Work was ridiculous and... I need to go grab some stuff to bring in tomorrow. Because I had to hacksaw a new channel in a stripped screw, and having done so I discovered that we have like no flat head screwdrivers at work anyway, Argh!

Other than that today was mostly billing and transfers and some database stuff. Tomorrow I'm doing bag label printing tests. Thrill a minute!

I'm going to go grab that stuff, and then go to bed 'early.'

Night all!

I had to take a reactine yesterday after cleaning out the basement, because I had hives and a million sneezes.

Today as a consequence I was an utter zombie and managed to do almost nothing productive all day. It took me three tries to remember my work phone number and write it down correctly *while I was looking at it*. I really hate the feeling, and wish I could find a good antihistamine that didn't give me the same reaction :/

Also I ate way too many snacks. But on the upside - I can touch my toes! my bed time/bus stop stretches are paying off!

Sleep now though :3

My hands are sore, I guess I'm paying for the progress I did over the weekend. I did two rows tonight and it was agony (one knit row, one purl), and they're still hurting despite drugs. My hip is bothering me too. Maybe it's time for aleve instead of ibuprofen.

Gee I can't wait until I'm actually old... -_-

I almost went to my mammogram a day early, but it is on the 2nd, which is Wednesday, not tomorrow. whee! Bedtime now (not in my bed still though). This has been an update.

Bees. Vicious bees.

And not much in the house for lunches, which has meant buying stuff at loblaws in the morning s the past few days. Yesterday I thought I was doing good by buying a muffin for breakfast instead of a chocolate croissant, but this morning the bakery hadn't restocked yet and I wound up buying day+ old chocolate croissants >.> I ate too many of them. I also bought a mini pot pie and a half pint of raspberries, and the only reason I didn't eat them all was that bees + too much fruit = bad idea.

I am trying to write a blog post for the Day of Archaeology at work, but all I have is short and bland. But there isn't too much going on, so I'm not really sure what to say :p Maybe I'll see if someone else has a chance to look it over.... maybe 'll just give up on it.

Longpig and Wererogue went over to a friends' place this evening, so I managed the smalls. And then I packed, more or less, for LARP. And that's about it?

I actually had some email exchanges with shapers but mostly they left me shaking my head. Did you actually read my background? Did you get my character confused with her daughter? This creepy dream you sent for me to have is really more just sort of bewildering and vaguely unsettling... Anyway, whatever. They have like a million characters to keep track of, I can't really fault them for falling down on the details, I guess? Anyway, it is way past my bedtime, ugh.

Today is a day of intense tiredness. I'd almost blame PM's but the timing is all wrong. Ugh, bodies. Ovulation, maybe? Because I need everything to get more intense, that's just peachy.

Work was fine, tomorrow is our Strategic Retreat, which is a little ominously named, especially since it has the potential to determine my future job prospects... And also the last day of filming.

We had a family meeting to talk about how we need to do better at keeping house... I guess we'll see if that has any impact.

Early bed for me I think. I'm wiped despite a mini-nap earlier.
