Monday things.
Actually not a whole lot of them. But I'm sitting here with a mug of Irish Breakfast tea trying desperately to wake up, so.
-- On today's agenda: make steampunky goodies for the next update. I really really want to make another Inara necklace in bright Bollywood colors, though. But I just got a manicure and I'd like it to remain un-chipped for like, at least two days.
-- Olive is not enjoying taking her pills. It takes both of us to give them to her. We papoosed her and buttered the pill and put it in her mouth until she appeared to swallow then followed it with a syringe of water to wash it down. We thought we were successful. Two minutes later, she made a hawking sound and spit it back up. We tried it in wet food. She ate around the pieces. Today, we're going to perform surgery on kitty treats-- the kind that are crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Fingers crossed.
-- Crazy dreams last night of the Silent Hill variety. Woke up with a wrenched back. Ugh.
-- Anxiety today. Stomach all funky. And Jason has an endocrinologist appt today and won't be home 'til late.
-- Brighter things, though: I should have a small update up by the end of the week. I am enjoying small and more frequent. It's less pressure to do a massive update once a month, and it's actually spurring me to work more consistently throughout the week.
-- I totally blanked on my Formspring Question/Answer Page, so now questions are answered and I'll be checking back for new ones.
