Well, today didn't go as planned

[cupcake_goth]

Today was mostly about me being OVERWHELMINGLY cranky. Like, grr!argh!snarl! cranky, at everything. For no reason whatsoever. Maybe the defective sleep caused it, I don't know. All I know is that I spent most of the day wanting to hiss at everyone and everything, and glaring at the computer because I. Could. Not. Write. An epic case of Words Gone.

I finally managed to drag a little under 1K words out of my brain, and then decided that the best thing I could do was go dye my hair. I now have freshly-blackened roots, and re-pinked bangs. Other good things of the day included getting a lovely stripy bodice/waistcoat-y thing in the mail, being submitted for a possible contract job, and the Stroppy One bringing me coffee and a scone.

I also watched silly tv (really, I only watch Vampire Diaries for Damon, because he's funny!), made myself a chocolate-cherry martini (Godiva liqueur + Three Olives cherry vodka), and now I'm going to go have a bath with the chocolate-scented, sparkly black bath salts that staxxy made for me, and paint my nails. And then I will SLEEP, goddammit. Really.

Friday will be better. Friday is hanging out with javagoth, and going dancing with the StuntHusband and Cagle. Friday will be MUCH better.

Hm, I need to try this of having a little drink and a bath whenever I'm cranky. Sounds wonderful!

The highlight of my day was the heavy rain here in LA and having a few margaritas tonight. Hehe.

Glad you got the stripy bodice! Can't wait to hear what you think about it. ;)

I confess I have yet to see a single episode of the Vampire Diaries. Which is crazy because I so looked forward to it be it crappy or not. I need to look up what station it is playing on cable me thinks.

I love love love the stripy bodice! As soon as I build an outfit around it, I'll be sure to take pictures of it for you. :)

I agree that Damon is the best reason to watch Vampire Diaries. I read the books way when they were first published...they were Okay, but not especially good. I think the tv show is slightly more amusing;)

If someone on would only make Barbara Hambly's "Those Who Hunt the Night/Traveling With the Dead" into movies as well as Kim Newman's "Anno Dracula", the world would be a much happier place:)

Hope you managed to get some good sleep last night.

Drop me a note or give me a call to let me know when would be a good time to come over. :)

These past few days have been heinously unproductive for me. I have just 1,500 words left for my current project, though I can't seem to bring myself to actually DO it.

Blargh. Shmeh.

So I took a long walk in the local cemetery with a friend today, instead.

Holy crap, your bad day sounds better than my best days. I would gladly trade! Stayed home from work today to try to heal this pinched nerve thing. Cannot have alcohol, so please have some for me. I'm not picky - whatever you'd normally drink is fine.
