So much for breaks. The finger seems to be feeling better, tho i'm trying to avoid typing with it.

i started my period, though. is this a cause for celebration 'cause i'm healthy enough to have it and am not pregnant or dismay that i'm going to be moody and messy and in pain in the near future? (and for anyone now or in the past who wants/ed to be pregnant, i guess it would also be a cause for dismay, huh?)

talked to autumn's m earlier, which was nice, 'cause he is a cool boy & we have similar types of sarcastic wit... it's always fun to talk to someone who Gets It like that. & we hadn't talked in a while.

listening to quiet music, and heading for bed now. i don't always enjoy my own skin or my life, but i'm pretty content with being ME this week. there are things that can be improved, especially situationally. but at the moment i'm not a particularly unhappy critter. there are ways to enrich even a shuttered life, and make it pleasant.

What a day! Severe thunderstorm warnings, and we get to be the part of the state where they are lingering later than for everyone else. Yes, that is me who you hear swearing.

The injured finger is bruised. Otherwise functional. I am crampy today, and more than a little ineffectual, bumbling around in loose clothing, yawning a lot. I want to read something long, absorbing, and medievalish, so I'm probably going to start on Deus lo Volt! or the most recent G.G.Kay trilogy.

The boots I ordered haven't arrived yet, which is fine; I'm expecting them early next week. However, my blood test bill did arrive. EEEEK! Did you know that a Lyme Disease screening alone is $150? The bill for it and the other tests was over $300. Out of pocket. (I doubt I have Lyme Disease anyway, though if you are a Chronic Fatigue patient in certain areas of the country they have to run the test.)

So, that is how things stand in my skin today.
Aren't we glad that LJ won the Webby Awards that we were lobbying for? High-fives to everyone who voted.
