The United States of Me!

So, it seems like an age since I've posted anything of substance. Er, mainly because it has been an age since I've posted anything of substance.

Let's see, what's been going on in my life? Well, I've been ill. Over the past month I've been in varying stages of snot and pain. The cold was fun, especially when it affected my ears (I have an inner ear imbalance), which meant that every time I sneezed I fell to the floor in a state of dizziness. This made walking across the floor prone to all sorts of hitherto unexpected hazards, such as the time I missed the corner of the table by about an inch. (But, hey, at least I didn't add concussion to the list of woes.) The cough is still lingering and was supplemented last week by a kidney infection which made moving a particular joy and bending over pretty much impossible. The upside is, the antibiotics appear to have kicked that one in the balls, so at least I'm not wincing every time I move.

Being in such a state of bleurghy meh means that I've done pretty much sod all work on my spn_cinema story and am looking at the approaching deadline with something akin to hysteria.

Apparently, tonight the moon is closer to the earth than it has been in 18 years. I'm wondering if this is making all the werewolves more hyper.

I've decided on what I'm doing for my friends for Christmas this year. I've had epic!fail on Christmas presents the past two years and this year shall be different. Of course, it's only March, so that could all change somewhere down the line.

I've been in a really funny state of mind recently and can't decide if my complete and total apathy over stuff is a phase or a symptom. It's like I want to do stuff, but just... don't.

In less pathetic and more fannish news, Hawaii Five-0 continues to be my happy place. It makes me happy in my face ::grin::

I've also taken to bathing in the near dark, lit only by the soft glow of ambient light. This isn't anything to do with setting a mood and everything to do with the fact that my bathroom lightbulb has gone and I've no idea how to remove the damn cover for it. It turns, but doesn't come off and there seems to be no screws in there. Luckily, the iPad with the brightness turned up all the way and sitting on the toilet lid, actually doesn't do too bad a job of lighting up the bathroom, so at least I can see where the sponge is...

So, to sum up: illness, no writing, werewolves, presents, happy face and bathing in the dark. Oh, and work's being a bastard.

Since that's about it, to end this rambling post of ramblingness, have a bunny with a waffle on its head...

*pets you a lot*

I have ALL the empathy, omg.

Plus this? "It's like I want to do stuff, but just... don't." Yeah.

*pets you more*

I'm glad you're kicking the worst of it. <33333333

::hugs you::

I figure if I just start doing stuff then I'll get over it :)

That rabbit is trying to kill you with its brain.

Any second now it's going to launch the razor-sharp waffle at people's heads ::nods::

*hugs you* I've spent the past week asleep in bed with the cold from hell, that was bad enough. Yours was clearly several times worse. Hope you feel all better soon. And I am so there with the just not doing anything. But there was some actual spring sunshine today, and it gave me the slight suspicion that if it keeps up, something might actually happen.

Is the bathroom light one of those round ones, that completely covers the bulb, maybe a white plastic cover fitting into a black plastic circle adjacent to ceiling? If so, look for a small slit between the two sections, insert a penny and press. There's a catch to release the bottom part. Just a thought... Can you tell how scarred I am by the time it took me to discover this in a past existence?
