You all know my friend, the Deadpony. (She speaks in The Voice.)
Oy vey.
So I haven't updated in about a billion years. Sorry.
I have a post chronicling my journey home from Nebraska from about two weeks ago that I'm still working on, but so far I'm not finished. When I am finished, though, it's going to be epic.
I have a dozen other things I need to write about, too, but I can't seem to find it in me. In fact, I have a lot of things I should be doing, and could have spent the last few hours working on. Here are just a few of the things I should be doing:
On the Computer:
And, of course, there's the stuff that requires getting dressed and leaving the house.
In the Real World:
So have I done any of this? No. Here's what I've done today:
So now I'm still at the high end of my BMI range, I'm no closer to finding a job, my writing projects are still trapped somewhere in the back of my mind from which they refuse to leave, and my old friend, The Voice in My Head that Hates Me (which sounds an awful lot like my own voice) is still chattering away to make up for lost time.
But on the plus side, my homepage now has over a dozen virtual ladybugs crawling around it, and they don't hate me. Yet.

On the Computer:
- Writing about:
- My trip to Nebraska
- AWA in September
- Birmingham Film Festival last weekend
- Upcoming cons in October and November
- My trips to Virginia and Florida from months ago
- Working on video editing projects (3 planned so far)
- Finishing up YTMND project
- When all that is finished, coming off hiatus at Sortinghat

And, of course, there's the stuff that requires getting dressed and leaving the house.
In the Real World:
- Visiting my doctor
- Contacting Mary about volunteer work
- Visiting sensei and the old class to explain why I dropped out this semester (optional)
- Taking the laptop to the shop to find out what's wrong with the power connection
- Submitting numerous job applications until I finally get a job for Nov. 5th - Dec 25th, so that I can pay off some of the huge debt I'm racking up from all these cons and travel
So have I done any of this? No. Here's what I've done today:
- Attempted to go back to sleep several times out of sheer boredom.
- Mentally berated myself yet again for no longer being able to fit into my size 8 pants.
- Weighed myself for the first time in three months. Found I'd gained back the 15lbs. I'd lost last winter.
- Declared myself a fat cow and vowed never to eat again until I'm back in my size 8 pants.
- Immediately go on a depression-induced eating binge, which consists of English Morning Tea and a microwave Thai noodle bowl, because my parents suck at buying comfort foods.
- Follow that immediately with milk candies and Fuze "slenderize" Tropical Punch. Scoff at the irony.
- Mentally berate myself for my weakness in going on an eating binge in the first place, even if it was a poor one at that. "This is why you can't wear size 8 pants."
- Try to distract myself by spending two hours rearranging my Google homepage.
