Bleh.

Virgo:: "Have you heard of the 'Nine Pregnant Women' rule?" asks businessman Scott Mills. "It takes nine months to have a baby--but you can't get the job done in one month with nine pregnant women. That rule applies to any project: As you think about managing the time that's available to complete a project, it's critical that you identify which steps you must complete sequentially." I suggest you install the Nine Pregnant Women rule at the center of your meditations right now, Virgo. The time is right for you to gaze at the big picture of your life from on high, and then formulate a revised set of long-term plans.

Tired today-- really unable to be coherent. So, bullet points:

-- Seeing the city lit up at twilight from just below the cloud-line was the highlight of yesterday.

-- I heart payday.

-- Rachel Brice has a new arms and carriage instructional DVD coming out next month. Score.

-- Thank you for the card, Rachael.

-- Joy, the package is waiting for the mailman!

-- Need to start eating better. Had scrambled eggs for breakfast instead of a muffin. Am having salad with walnuts, berries, mandarin bits, and grilled chicken instead of greasy fried nastiness for lunch. Need to stop eating when satisfied. Need to lose 5 pounds of bad eating pudge. This means ice cream is not an every-other-night snack.

-- Finished all commissions! This means I'm free to start making my next round of ready-to-buy stuff. When I have time. Which is... gosh, I'm busy. I don't even know when that is. I really like spending time beading and working on things, but the time is getting less and less available. I feel guilty working when I'm supposed to be hanging with Sky, but we hang almost every night. I sometimes have to build in days to have to myself, and those are hard to come by, scheduling-wise. Ugh. I need more time for myself. I keep saying that. I need to learn to stick to it. Me time is just as important as everybody else time, and I shouldn't feel guilty for taking it.

-- Lost was satisfying last night, even if I did fall asleep partway through 'cause I was bone-weary-tired from traveling. Although Jack? Remember when you were awesome and I liked you? Yeah. I miss that, too.
