Dec. 18th, 2018 10:18 pmI have spent most of my writing time tonight listening to, hunting down, and cackling over classic rock music on the internet and I can't say I'm even a little bit sorry.
The way I got there is weird and convoluted. A while back (spring? ish?) I got a sample of NARS's Powermatte liquid lipsticks and liked it, and I looked them up and all their colors are names like American Woman, Walk This Way, Slow Ride, Light My Fire, Paint It Black, you get the idea. So I decided on American Woman for a trial run since that was the color of my sample and I did really like it, and then I went looking for it in my music collection, because I had a huge music collection of classic rock right?
No. Not right. I had them on cassette tapes. When I was thirteen and recording these things off of the radio. I haven't had as extensive a classic rock collection since, I don't think. Which I am rectifying now! But that was a huge, huge distraction tonight. Which I can't say I'm sorry about it either, it was fun, I needed that, it was light-hearted wonderful fun.
The boy is slowly getting better. Still weak but no longer feverish, still coughing but slowly getting better. I, on the other hand, seem to be fine now, which is the oddly funny but definitely perplexing pattern that seems to be happening. He gets really horribly sick with something that settles on his lungs, I get a head cold for two days. Not that I'm complaining given that he has a better time breathing than I do all of the time on average, but, um. What.
I found a cake that I think I'm going to try to make ahead of time, a day or so? I'm not sure how well it'll keep in the fridge or freezer but I'm going to try, for the Christmas Court. That, plus no I am not going to make a lasagna, some form of chicken will do, and that should take care of everyone in a minimalist way if no one brings anything edible. Surely someone will bring something edible. And other than that it's pretty much frantically clean the house starting Thursday, or rather frantically clean the downstairs. Which won't be that hard, I just need to find the energy somewhere. Work isn't as bad as I'd expected, surprisingly.
Right. I do need to get some form of writing done tonight before I curl up on the couch and refuse to do anything ever again. And there's not much going on in my life today. I bought some music, some pens, and looked at buying some makeup and clothes. Okay to be fair, rock music themed makeup is pretty cool. But other than that... eh. I feel like my life is very calm and boring right now. Which is great. I like calm and boring where the most exciting thing is what do I even choose from all these shirts omg.
