Dec. 29th, 2014 09:58 amI spent the better part of the weekend yes, cleaning house, and also practicing Arabic calligraphy for no real reason and playing around with my new toys, i.e. my yoga set, my DVDs, my calligraphy pen, my Arabic books... it was so much fun. At some point I really am going to need to settle down and allocate some time to work on stuff so I don't ignore everything else in favor of the new shiny thing. This might require some time on gCal. We'll see.
(Come to that I haven't even looked at where I'm supposed to be on writing yet oops. Other than, way ahead of where I actually am.)
I can feel my brain scattering in the direction of whatever's shiny, so this is going to be an interesting day. Can we talk about the sleep I didn't get last night? Or all weekend, really, but half of that is my own dumbass fault for both not going to bed earlier and going "oh, it's 7-8 in the morning, eh, six hours of sleep is fine." And on weekdays it is, but that only works if I get closer to 8 on the weekend. And I took no naps, and then last night I went to sleep closer to 1, woke up at 3 again, woke up at 5, finally rolled out of bed around 7, and now I am fucking exhausted and scattered. So. Interesting day.
Also over the weekend I renewed my interest in Pottermore thanks to someone ... well, okay, thanks to this post and the fact that I got a bunch of textbooks for Christmas. And pens. And immediately started playing with them. So no, no one should be surprised that I got Ravenclaw on Pottermore, but now I am so tired I am looking all over the internet for Ravenclaw merch I might be interested in. Thankfully, there is actually precious little of it. I did find this place to get a custom wand and yes, I am considering at some point, maybe for my birthday, ordering the wand Pottermore assigned me. Shut up. I am not a tremendous dork.
Oh look, in addition to sleepiness I have end of year money freakouts. Which is again to say the boy's whole lack of paycheck till February, plus me freaking out because I spent too much money on Christmas and didn't save enough, bleh. ... You know, the lack of sleep is definitely not helping the panicking here. One foot in front of the other. One thing in front of the other. And remembering to get extra sleep tonight because otherwise I am quite possibly going to dissolve into a pile of tears and screaming. Enjoyment of the last few days aside, let's not forget that at least half that enjoyment was escapism. Stress is fun. Brains are fun. If I say that often enough I may believe it.
I need a higher level adult and at least a $10k windfall. I am not likely to get either of these.
