kittydesadeThings I am glad I got before this latest bout of financial insecurity (though some of this is before from the last one):
-- Frye boots (2 pair, one pull-ons and one lace-ups)
-- Ginormous bottle of the really good skin lotion (which is slowly running out, urk)
-- Ginormous bottle of the really good face soap (courtesy of the braintwin, need to refill the dispenser at some point)
-- Cloth pads (so much more goddamn comfortable even if the week itself is not)
-- Shittons of the really tiny point ballpoint pens in multiple colors (mostly expensive because they come from Japan, and very good for writing tiny equations in multiple colors so I can keep each factor separate)
-- All the language books for Hindi, Arabic, etc I'll need for a while (seriously, these things are like 40-60$ a pop ouch.)
To a lesser/more personal/more indulgent extent: Nenya with stone from Badali Jewelry, hair gloss from Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab, and a wand because of reasons.
I still don't know what's going to happen. We should find out Monday. His friends in similar lines of work (other CNAs, I think one of them's an actual nurse right now, I know he's in classes) are telling him of places they know are hiring and they're lining up to give him references, so even if he has to he shouldn't be too long without a job. He'll take a pay cut in most cases, but that's not too bad? We'll have to watch our budgets a lot more, but it won't be so bad. We've already kind of been doing that. Or I have anyway, I think he's been indulging in the kickstarters, silly lad.
And I should get back to edits and writing, but I haven't much been able to do anything this weekend but curl up on the couch, push through the blog, and click the clicky pets. I kind of hate myself a little for it. I keep thinking of all the work I could have gotten done. I did get some language review done? Some videos watched even if I have no idea how much information I retained from it. Also a lot of napping, and the OC October post done for today. But apparently I don't get days off, according to the weasels in my head. I don't know. Intellectually, I know there are all kinds of reasons for me to take a day and a half to do nothing physically or mentally strenuous. Emotionally, I can feel all my muscles atrophying, brain and limbs.
Tomorrow I get to start again. Be busy, keep moving. Hopefully. Keep moving, that's all. I need to find energy somewhere. Not entirely sure where. Maybe with a good night's sleep.
