Last night ended up being, due to a handful of reasons, a Very Not Good Night. As a result, I am feeling pretty wrecked today. To forestall worried questions, things are fine, really they are. But I have that post-crying hangover feeling, and feel a bit emotionally tender.

So! My outfit today includes the pink & black Bunnicula skirt of Great Emotional Comfort, and I am going to spend the day switching between listening to the Sepiachord Field Guide and playlists [livejournal.com profile] staxxy made for me.

The other thing I do when I feel a bit raw and tender around the edges of my psyche? Turn to you people, of course, and ask you to tell me good things. Something nifty happened in your world recently? Please tell me! Have pictures of adorable critters? Give me links! Discovered a shiny thing or a band you think I should know about? Tell me!

Now to drink tea, nibble on a scone, and edit some documentation.

I won nanowrimo for the first time ever and I've been doing it for five years. ^_^

Also have some Ed Grimley (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-4b8AjPl1I). He always cheers me up. ^_^

Oh man! You took mine. Kinda.

I too won NaNoWriMo. This is my third win. However, the story was really hard to wrestle to the ground this time. It fought me every step of the way. Did it though (50044).

Here's what I'm doing today:


I'm down in my workroom, making a new shirt for my husband out of a gorgeous cotton in red with gold accents, festive without being too obvious or kitschy. Near my chair is a really nifty space heater, and next to that, a folded piece of deep pink polarfleece. Lounging about on that piece of polarfleece is my dog, Lana. (see userpic). It's cozy & nice in here.

Another nice thing: Hubby got me a Wii with Wii Fit stuff all with hotel points, and it's quite nifty. My ab muscles are pleasantly sore.

Yes that is my little one, who passed out sitting up and fell face first into her playpen wall and just stayed there.

Really.

The post should deliver a package in a day or two, and I hope it will brighten your day.

In the meantime, my own little snarkling continues to be cute beyond what is allowed by the Geneva Convention, and has discovered power buttons. Computer tower power buttons are his favorite. Be afraid.

Good things - well if me living within a few blocks of you in a few weeks time is a good thing then there you are. :)

After being unable to even get up on a mounting block, much less ride my beloved Boo-Pony for 6 years, last night I went for my first lesson to try and get started again. I got up on the mounting block just fine, but the block was a wee bit too short and the horse a wee bit too tall. Next time the block is going to be taller and I'm gonna get my butt back in the saddle!

Thank heaven for sweet, kind and gentlemanly geldings :)

Yesterday I was having a really unhappy day, so I decided to go to sanrio to get myself a new strap for my cellphone. I put on my Lolita outfit that I just finished making, and set off. The woman working in the sanrio was so wonderfull! She asked all about my outfit, told me how pretty my skirt was, and just chatted with me for about half an hour! It sounds silly, but she really put me into such a good mood, that I felt good the whole rest of the day! Talk about the "one stop smile shop"!

Good things:

Two weeks ago I officiated my sister in law's wedding. First time I've ever done it (probably the last since nearly everyone I know is now married) and I'm so happy to have been a part of it.

Our move has been bumped from June to January. And my husband's company is paying for it so I don't have to lift a finger! This is great news since I'm expecting baby bat #4. :)

Personal recipe for post-unhappy day:

Terrifically bad horror movies. Nothing puts me in a good mood faster than being able to snark it up over bad dialogue and worse acting. My personal favorite for this one is still Eternal Blood (http://www.amazon.com/Eternal-Blood-Juan-Pablo-Ogalde/dp/B000092T5X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1259789662&sr=8-1) which is a horribly dubbed Chilean vampire movie with some pretty special effects of the "special" variety. What's better about it is that for as much as the gothy people in it are kinda stereotypical, there are still some redeeming points to the plot so it's not completely pointless. (But the English dialogue alone is hilarious.)

If wickedly horrible cinema doesn't do it for you, allow me to point you to the band Diary of Dreams, if you haven't already heard of them. This is a German lad who enjoys writing bombast-y kind of music which is very gothy lyrically but also pretty dancey too. Clicky link here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lk1q91sxWUY) brings you to the song "The Curse" which is pretty good introduction to their sound.

Here's wishing you much tea, scones and a cupcake scented bath in hopes that you feel better soon. :)
