My muse hates me...

I swear, it's arching me.

How else to explain why all saturday, when I needed to finish doing work, it kept having the greatest fic bunny ideas and spontaneously playing me scenes. *head desk* I was good for once, and did my work. And finished my work on Sunday.

And now, I go back to poking the frog and it's looking at me like I'm insane.

Seriously, would it kill it to give me inspiration when I'm on vacation for once and can work on things without killing myself??????????

I think i need to go look up some frog leg recipes.

online photo book thingies...

Okay, so I throw myself on the combined knowledge of the interwebs.

I've tried both snapfish and shutterfly and for some reason am finding the process infuriating. Is there any service where I can download the book and arrange it on my hardrive and then reupload it? I've been putting this off for 1.5 years and family pressure has gotten to the point that I've actively lied about progress so this thing needs to get done this month.

almost 1 day down....

After putting off braving the masses over the weekend, I finally went out shopping today. Food needs required it, and I had a few "nice to haves and must haves" for trip.

1) the loratadine compounded works so much better for me when shopping. I still smell the chemical dyes in the clothes and corny cardboard that you know is throughout all malls, but it's more of an annoyance rather than causing me to get emotional/angry within 20 minutes of being in one. Perfumes are annoying and I try not to stay around any too much since that would be an excess just asking for a migraine.

2) swimsuit shopping sucks. I'm sure it makes guys feel just as self conscious, but they don't actually have to try it on in the store. I did find a tankini that i like better than my old swimsuit that just barely fits. I know it doesn't look it, but for health, and to make it so i can still find things that fit top and bottom, i really need to be more active and firm up my buddha belly.

3) shoe shopping sucks but for different reasons. I've confirmed that Asics have just completely changed how they make their shoe which means it's too narrow in the toe box for me. So, I finally bit the bullet and switched brands (after some 7 or 8 years of being a 1 running shoe brand person). Nikes seem to be fitting reasonably well. So i ended up with regular nike air pegasus for all around. Also got some nike free tr fit 2 shoes ...that are a bit more visible (neon yellow and green. *head desk* common shoe size = no choice). They're pretty comfy, but I don't think i'd want to be standing on my feet all day in them as there's not a ton of cushion.

4) grocery shopping.

Ugghh. tired now. and just finally cooling down. Finally actually needed to break out some coconut water. Very weird to be warm ALL DAY LONG instead of freezing to death for 8 of it. \0/

So now carry in all groceries. do more laundry. start dinner. start cleaning. and probably a bit of a break in there for a bit of NOTHING.
