That I absolutely cannot find a thing to do.
I just sit here and pretty much stare at the ceiling, I hardly ever even leave the house actually ._. Nothing is really interesting to me, I eat like one meal a day then I'm content on laying down and staring at the ceiling for hours.
BUT I did manage to find ONE song by my favorite band that nobody turned into a thinspo vid.

I'm tired of typing all my posts from my phone. I don't feel like paying for hotel interwebs so I'll just have to deal with it. I normally don't mind but I'm starting to miss my lappy. I'm not being cheap really. The hotel Internet is slow and meh.

How exhausted I've been for the last few days. Once again I've slept most of the entire day. I'm not sure why I've been so tired after my trip, the plane ride wasn't that long and there was no time zone difference.

The one damn morning that my son sleeps until 08.00 is the one damn morning my daughter decides that 06.45 is a more suitable time to wake up. Thank GOODNESS I followed my brain last night and went to bed at 01.00!

Everything seems to be stacking up for me recently. I have about half a dozen art projects I need to finish, some of them with a rapidly approaching due date, and I'm lagging behind. I have some real life issues I haven't dealt with, including my doctor *not* getting back to me about an appointment I need set for the Psychologist, who's only in town once a month. In addition, my mercurial sleeping patterns are fucking with me again, and I'm not getting to bed until about 7 am. Which is disasterous, as that's about the time the D&D session starts, so I'm worried that I'll either have to miss the damn thing again or try running it half asleep.
Speaking of D&D, I mind myself in an increasing panic about it. Not only will I be stupid tired for it, but I've also had little to no time to prepare for it, beyond a basic idea of what'll happen next. I'm afraid that I'm loosing my players, in fact I think I've already lost some, so I can't postpone it again lest I loose the rest. But at the same time, I'm already turning into a gibbering mess, which'll be intensified 100 fold when I'm half asleep. Dare I subject my players to that? More and more, I wonder if this was a good idea to start with, I feel like I'm just letting everyone down.

RELAX, Moon! You won't lose me, at least.
I've been in a slight panic about D&D, but only because I tend to leave all my work until Sunday and I always freak out that I'm going to miss it.
Oh, and art projects building up on you? I have one about half done that I needed done about a MONTH ago. -.- Luckily my teacher is very accepting and fine with that, but still! I take -forever- on art projects. And now I have another to work on because I took forever on it, too!

University bookstores. Or, at least the SPU bookstore. The store is owned by Barnes & Nobles. I can buy a certain textbook from the bookstore for $152. Well, I of course grab the ISBN from the bookstore's website, and take it over to
Google books to find a better deal, because I know that the bookstore is never going to give me the lowest price. That I can understand; it's a for-profit business, after all.
I then find out that I can get the same textbook for $126 from none other than
Barnes & Nobles. No, seriously, check for yourself. Here's the
Barnes & Nobles price, and the
Barnes & Nobles bookstore price.
Oh, and the ridiculously inefficient URLs at the bookstore website are also pissing me off, though just about anything related to that bookstore is apt to piss me off at this point.

The fact that the most common excuse for playing poorly is "I'm soooooo high, lol." I fucking hate that excuse.

I somewhat worried by how many people seem really down right now. I am hoping that it's a combination of weather and cold season and school stress. Say, do you southern hemisphere people have the same school year schedules as we do in the northern hemisphere where you get (your) summers off?
Right this instant I am very unhappy with my skin. Even though it's not particularly dry or cold here - it's Florida! - I cracked my bottom lip when I woke up today badly enough that it dripped blood. And my thumb, which has a patch of dry skin due to an allergy, cracked and is bleeding now also. I feel like I am wrapped in band-aids and Neosporin.

It's okay, Sat. We pretty much ended it soon after you left.
But...by the time you read this, you'll prolly know, so...

It's really annoying when you get customers that are just rude and don't care that your literally closing the restaurant in minutes. We get people that come in 2 minutes before we officially close for the day..It pisses everyone who is still working off.

People do that to us too. We do last call 10 minutes before we close. We have people coming up 15 - 20 minutes later. "Can I have some wings?" "Sorry, we're closed." "Can I get a drink?" "I just said we're closed, ma'am. Soda machine is taken apart and cleaned. Please go to the bar." "Can I get food there?" "...No. The food comes from here. You can get a drink in the bar."
I hate it.....so bad.

You know what my own mother told me and this is sad as your parents should be supportive. She asked what I have to be stressed out about the other day.. I Was like gee I dunno.. Maybe the fact I can't see my own daughter ???? "oh well you shouldn't like that bother you" "why do you let it get to you" uhh I can't help it ? I can't just flick a fucking switch off and be all happy it doesn't work that way. I'm depressed because I don't see her.. I don't think she fully understands how much it hurts me to have her taken from me or that I can't see her. I do try and hide it most of the time. I have more fingers on my one hand then I have friends/family that actually understand what I have to live with on a daily bases. It tears my heart out not knowing what she looks like, what her voice sounds like now etc etc..90% of the time I don't let it get to me but sometimes all it takes is a certain song, a bad day at work or whatever to trigger a flood of emotions and you literally break down for a few minutes before you can pick yourself up again.
/end rant..
