Yup

Can't sleep again tonight. My leg hurts so bad I can't get comfortable and everytime I move I practically scream. Never fear, I had a darvacet or two stashed for just such an occaision. Mmm...pain go away soon.

All in all, though, this has been the best V-Day I've ever had, 2003 discluded. I just realized that not once today did the "I'm alone on Valentine's Day, this sucks I hate everyone blah blah" thing come up. Good for me! I hate the "holiday" for the material aspect of it - I think the idea of *celebrating* love is great, I just don't like that people feel they need to show their love through material gifts. That's stupid and cheap. So, hey, first V-Day in history that went by unbittered.

Also, plans for the apartment are...twitchy at best. There's a very good chance I may wind up getting my own studio in a bad neighborhood as opposed to a two bedroom in a nice nieghborhood. Added that file to my "I'll deal with this later" pile.

And now I'm going to reply to a bunch of comments/email/fb while I wait for the painkillers to set in. I may wind up actually sleeping tonight - yay!

New Icon

Made a few new icons - hey, insomnia/pain can be productive apparently. Here's one of my new ones.

*ehem*

Skipped first class and watch QAF instead. Went to second class - skipped third class and watched QAF instead. In my defense, I didn't sleep again last night at all, and it wouldn't have been fair to me *or* the teacher for me to go and crash in their classes.

Oh, that Research Methods midterm I thought for sure I failed? I wound up getting a high C on it - go me! But, that Counseling Theories midterm I thought I aced? High C. Booo me. But i did get a few points above the class average, so that's good right?

And now because I ate three meals today, er more specifically a salad, a bag of popcorn and a sandwhich and some gum, and because I skipped the gym last night because of my leg, I feel fat. It's so frustrating! I wish we all had the ability to make ourselves pretty or whatever we wanted instantly. Why can't I be a Photosheep .jpg? Then I would *know* what I was doing. You know it's weird - my self esteem as far as body image is concerned has plummeted in the last month and a half; and yet my artistic self-esteem has jumped a few notches. The more and more people that comment on my photography and digital creations and fanfiction and original fiction, the prouder I become of my so-called talent; but the worse I feel about how I look. Yeah, I know - I'm crazy. That's been established.

Anyway, it's looking like I'm going to be tied up (unvoluntarily) for the rest of the week. So if any action happens with you all that I missed or forgot to comment on, let me know because I feel like the worst LJ friend ever.

And now to go to the gym *le sigh*.

Also - another new icon; the animated frames are from karenbear's post.

Okay Y'all...specially you, lunabee34

Just letting her, and everyone else I suppose, know that I updated Forgotten Psychosis with some Original Works. There's not much there, because I've lost a few files somwhere in my archives. Anyway, knock yourself out but keep in mind some of that stuff was written as early as eighth grade.

Also, another new icon.
