( Russian, again! Now with 75% less stupid. Remember kids, if you do it because you don't know better, it's ignorance. If you do it because you weren't paying attention when you knew you should have been, you're just stupid. )

I need Jackie Earle Haley's eyebrows again. Mine just aren't that mobile.

Someone explain to me why the process of making a "greenway" involves tearing up all the trees along a fairly steep creek bank so that the erosion process can go unchecked? I hope there's an internal logic to this I'm not seeing.

I'd also like someone to explain to me why I have Poker Face on my computer. I can think of no earthly explanation for this. I'm going to blame Sam, instead.

My mind is way, way, way too frantic today. I'm having stage fright about events that aren't supposed to occur for months. I'm fussing over work like I shouldn't be doing, like I don't usually do. I'm completely stalled on Martine, which is probably a big source of it. I did sit down this morning and attempted to meditate, some visualisation of ordering thoughts. Especially Martine. That seemed to help. Smacking myself upside the head with mallets labeled you know how to do this, dumbass also helped. I'm not sure why this is all hitting me now, except that maybe it has something to do with having eaten nothing but junk food yesterday so now my physical body system is all whacked. I dislike it intensely. It needs to stop.

Oh well. Back on the wagon this morning, cereal and snow peas to snack on and exercises and blah. It's actually going to be warm out, dear lord, wonder of wonders, miracle of miracles. We might have spring after all. It was starting to feel like Narnia here in the US.

... on the other hand, there's nothing like realizing you've inadvertently been labeling (for the past couple of months, no less) a certain brand of yarn so that it reads 'assholes' instead of the actual brand name.

Oops.

Good Idea: Placing a label on a product so that none of the pertinent information is obscured.

Bad Idea: Placing a label on a product so that an important letter is obscured.

The end.

Oogh. That only took three days.

If I'm coming down with the crud I'm going to hurt someone. I started feeling semi-feverish towards the end of work today, then started coughing once I got home and had a nap. Naps are supposed to make you feel better, dammit! ... On the one hand, this sucks. On the other hand, tomorrow I may get to try a lighter set of exercises and I have no idea what that will be yet. I have one exercise in mind, and that's about it.

I kind of wanted to start reading Faust in German tonight, too. And now I just want to curl up in bed and maybe write a little bit before I pass out. Debating taking medication.

Tomorrow, though, I get to try spinning some more. Actually spinning, this time, not sort of flailing my way through the motions and maybe getting it, maybe not. Dammit, I will not be sick for that. I will actually go to work, I will go and sit down and do spinning. Rarr.

Also, Human Target is making me want to watch Boston Legal. Hm.
