verbminxI just got home. Have been out all evening, first at Target (where my mother turned a simple expedition to pay my bill and pick up zipdisks - which she griped about incessantly, I might add - into an excuse to refurnish the bathroom) and then at Kinko's.
I managed to scan my self-portrait (yay!) as well as some pictures I took over the summer and at KittyMalicious and Edvaytah's wedding. However, they are on a zip disk, which means that I have to unhook the evil scanner from this computer (thanks for remembering that power cord, L), fish the UPS from behind the back, and basically redo all the work I undid the other night. Not happening tonight, nohow. Give it a day or so.
I also got a ton of color copies (around 20) for various projects for various friends. Presents. Which will be late.
I feel so dissatisfied. My mother is irritating me, with her harshness and snappishness and invasion into everylittlecorner of my life. I know that I am fortunate in that I am given things (and at the advanced age of twenty-four). But I also know that I would be happier to be healthy & self-sufficient & without somebody's nose constantly in my business & someone feeling that they have the right to make constant demands on me and criticise something as trivial as me looking in the mirror "every time [I'm] in the bathroom" - the mirror takes up the entire WALL over the sink and counter, so it's kind of hard NOT to look into it. The criticism is constant & harsh & irritating as hell, honestly. & when it's not about me it's general whining and griping about the world at large.
I don't feel well. My ear hurts and my temp is up and I feel that woozy feeling that I get when the lymph nodes in my neck are unhappy. It's almost time for bed. Yay for bed.
