New sewing machine

I finally bought myself a new machine -- it does embroidery and quilting and I'm a little intimidated, but I think today is my evening to go and commune with it. ;-)

I made the neatest doll yesterday -- I can forsee a lot more doll making in my future and I think I'll try a dragon, too.

Maybe a series of them to decorate Larry's office...

Rats in the night

Man, last night Lil woke us up -- a yucky rat had bitten through the hose behind the fridge and water was spraying everywhere. Larry killed the rat, Lorna cleaned up the mess.

I panicked.

;-)

We were up all night, slept in, and today's been weird, all day.

so, the couch is *way* bigger than it looked in the store

Much bigger.

It's fabulous.

Red.

Fun.

But bigger than anticipated...

Shin splints and a general blah

I am feeling very blah today -- no reason, really. I just am.

My leg hurts and I don't want to go to the trainers and yoga. I don't want to walk the dogs or do the laundry.

I don't want to get my word count and do my job.

I don't want to be a grown up.

*stomp*

*throw things*

*do my shawnzilla impersonation*

*ragemaimkilldestroywavearmsmadlyinaterrifyingfashion*

*chuckles*

Okay, now that *that* particular stompy-whiny-cry-baby stuff is over...

I'm tired of exercising

I'm not stopping; I'm just tired of it. ;-)

Okay?

Okay.

Today was a *lot* of exercising and running still sucks. I keep waiting for the rush. I think it's a lie.

Exhausted today

In a bone-deep, I could just sob sort of way.

If my period doesn't start soon, I'm going to become homicidal.

Just sayin'
