Ugh

[cupcake_goth]

Hello horrible sinus migraine, I didn't invite you. Today is now about working from home, drinking lots of tea, and thinking longingly of drilling a hole in my skull to release the pressure and/or the sinus demons.

Of course, the final rancid sprinkles on the top of this crankycake is that I'm having a(nother, because yesterday wasn't that great, either) bad brain chemistry day, and the Monsters of Low Self-Esteem and warming up for a comeback performance. I'm doing my damnedest to ignore them, but you people telling me good things or giving me clicky-links of distraction would be lovely, too.

I know the feeling.

This bad-back problem? Entirely stress related. Worst. Week. Ever.

(And after the Best. Weekend. Ever.)

Sigh.

Ungood :(

Perhaps a band you might like? Bitter Ruin, opening for Amanda Palmer last night in Dublin:

The climbing roses in my back yard are crazy with leaves & buds, several of which are about to open.

There's a robin nesting in the eaves of our side porch.

I'm working on an outfit for one of my dearest friends, and this saves me from feeling completely wretched from a combination of medication side-effects, pollen madness, and an unwanted visit from the red-headed aunt.

Well, I'm currently contemplating what the baby should be for Halloween, and I just got a big stack of new books to read. (One of the first things I learned was how much reading you can do while nursing...)

Also I just picked up the latest Gothic Beauty, and I love the layouts in this one. Also it has Emilie Autumn, so between you and the magazine I may have to go check her out...

[tinkerbell86ca.livejournal.com]

Hhuumm, reading well nursing . . . I will keep that in mind. Mmmmm, books!

I had a dream that I was dressed like you.

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Hee! Did you have fun? Were you wearing stripy tights?

[icprncs.livejournal.com]

I was wearing stripy tights yesterday in real life, TYVM. (Purple, of course.)

It was...weird.

The tiled floor at Smalls venue in Hamtramck/Detroit where Faith and the Muse played 2 nights ago - perfect or perfect??

That's GOTTA bring a smile to your face!!! :D:D:D

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Oh, how perfect!

Zombie Baby

The lyrics of a song I made up when my daughter was about 6 months old...*ahem*

I'm a Zombie Baby, gonna eat your brains, gonna eat your brains
I'm a Zombie baby, gonna eat your brains...

Don't have any teeth yet
Could you please, open up your head
Take out your brains, put 'em in a blender?
So I can suck on your brains?

Cause I'm a Zombie Baby, gonna eat your brains, gonna eat your brains
I'm a Zombie Baby, wanna eat your brains

Don't have any teeth yet
Could you please, insert this razor
Tipped straw deep in your head
So I can suck on your brains?

Can't walk yet but I want your brains
Can't crawl yet but I crave your brains
Can't roll over but I NEED YOUR BRAINS

'Cause I'm a Zombie Baby, gonna eat your brains, gonna eat your brains
I'm a Zombie Baby, wanna eat your brains!

Ugh. It's not just you in the allergies/migrainey/weather-changey department. I woke up a little after six this morning with MAJOR MESSY HEAD ASPLODE and I haven't been right since.

It's a shame I have all this fucking work to do.
>_<

Anyway, yes. Commiserations.

Acupressure on the fingers and/or toes can get sinuses draining. (I hate pollen. I want a good soaking rain to wash it down the sewers.)

Dunno if this is quite what you're looking for, but hopefully you'll like it :]

Your creature still thinks you're the Bomb diggity, in case you needed a reminder.

[foxysushi.livejournal.com]

Oh, I do hope you feel better. I am suffering similar maladies myself. As for the low-self-esteem beasties- beat them back with thoughts of what a lovely, worthy lady you are.

[caleidescopeyes.livejournal.com]

Oh, Jillian. I'm sorry to hear that you're having a less-than-wonderful couple of days. Here are some pretty things for you:

That first image, of the silver tea set? That looks almost EXACTLY like the tea set I own. It was a Christmas present ages ago from The Husband.

[caleidescopeyes.livejournal.com]

Wow! It is a beauty of a tea set. What a wonderful gift!

[staxxy.livejournal.com]

ummm all hope is not lost.

more on this later.

Kitty to make you happy like!

Also, something else that might make you happy like . . . I'm pregnant, 6 weeks 4 days! Yaaaaay! But pooh . . . no Halloween baby for me . . . yet!

Fell better soon Jilli, it sucks that you feel so icky like. Taty tea helps, glad you are doing that. Go hug a kitty for a bit, might make you smile a little. Also! watch Singing in the Rain, the movie version of Prozac.

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Pregnant! Oh my goodness, congratulations!

[tinkerbell86ca.livejournal.com]

Thank you darling! Decorations are already being gathered . . . Star Wars posters (really pretty ones), sea shells, Edward Gorey cats, and some pretty goth like items might slip in there . . . hehe!

For sinus problems I recommend regular use of a Neti pot. You can pick one up at your corner drugstore, with saline packets, for about $10.
