Hub's been trying to finish up the website, been working at Nerdz, and doing all this house stuff- and he's exhausted. We spent a lot of yesterday just doing low-key things, and went out for dinner. It was nice; I hope the stupid website gets done soon, and I've told him we can wait on a lot of the home improvement crap (now that I have my computer room!) since the most pressing stuff is done. We've both been kinda stressed the last few days.
We did play another game of 1000 Blank White Cards with Bob the other night, getting many hysterical cards as usual. If I have some time I'll scan some of them in soon.
For whatever reason I didn't go to bed until midnight last night, which is not really all that late. But when I got up this morning, I felt like I'd been on a 3-day bender. I guess it's all catching up with me or something (maybe I have head cancer!) but I couldn't call in sick; I've already used too much leave. So I've been slogging through. The afternoon hasn't been as bad as it was this morning. I know at least 1% of it is that I have these gumballs, see... someone gave them to me as a Yule present and I've been carrying them around ever since. They're supposedly aromatherapy gumballs and are labeled 'Peace of Mind' which implies relaxation, right? Oh, no. They are gumball shaped Altoids, basically, and biting into one of them is like getting hit on the back of the head with a menthol brick. They sure wake me right up, at least for a little bit.
