I'm having one of those "OMG I'm learning Irish" moments again. Which is probably good because after the first three lessons I'm going to need buckets of review to keep this in my head. Plus pronunciation review.

So. I spent most of this weekend asleep or playing stupid video games, which is probably just what I needed. I managed not to go nuts over the fact that the apartment isn't clean, my stuff wasn't getting written, I just sat back and relaxed and slept a lot and now I feel better. I still have no idea what I'm going to do about, well, anything that I still have to do stuff about, but all I have to do is survive this week and the resultant craft fair plus trade fair at the end of it. And then it'll be okay.

And, you know. Slowly getting back on the routines, exercise, languages, sleep, guitar, I've got music theory lessons coming up, day job. Knitting projects. Work type work. Lots of, although at least today, still not much incoming. Probably a lot of outgoing. And packing for the show. And. Ugh. Want another weekend day to clean and write and so on. Then again, I'd probably just spend that half asleep, too. A little bit of each at a time.

Hey, look, I have energy again. Go me.

Working on catching up with RP tags of the last, um. Six weeks, I think. I don't even know how I get so far behind except that my time management skills are not what they should be. I need to just allocate a bit of time to mixing RP tags with things like, um. Coding, maybe. At least until I've gotten the number of threads down to only one or two really lively ones, and then make sure to finish those before starting new ones and I keep saying this and it keeps not happening. It's like quitting smoking or losing 30 pounds for New Year's. You know it's not going to happen, but you tell yourself you'll do it just to make yourself feel better. Or something.

On the list of things I should do but really don' wanna, filing. I have a pile of filing here to do and I really, really don't want to deal with it. There's not even any logical reason for it, I just don't want to. Tedious, boring thing. Maybe the solution is to tag while filing, I've done that before.

Obama is in Asheville! Again. He really seems to like this place, which isn't entirely surprising and in fact pleases me a great deal. I like this place too, Mr. President! Thank you for noticing how awesome it is. And then Tony Bourdain is coming in November and while I might check out what tickets are going for, I doubt I'll be be able to go hear him speak. Maybe. But it'll be fun nonetheless. Sadly, not for an episode of No Reservations or I'd be all stoked about seeing my hometown on TV.

Right. In any case, doing much better this week for having slept almost all weekend. Feeling calmer, more capable of facing the week to come and what is in all probability a weekend of working all the weekend ever, then going right back to work next week. YAY. Not. Well, no, sort of yay, the fiber fairs always bring in interesting things, but still. A break between weeks is also nice.
