    i'll kick it off:

    suck: couldn't sleep at all, due to a chronic pain/adhd/intrusive thoughts triple combo. finally just gave up, chugged some coffee, and took my meds.

    rule:
    there's a bit of a gentle rainstorm drifting in from the west, and just coincidentally my bedroom window faces west (it's not a coincidence, that was a lie; when we were looking at this house i saw the big west-facing window and went MOTHERFUCKIN DIBS FIGHT ME) so i can watch the clouds change. the trees are all leafed out now, and shimmering as the wind picks up, and the sky is a warm gray-white. the birds are roosting because they don't feel like flying in rain, so i can hear them talking to each other on the roof and in the backyard trees. and the wind smells amazing.

    Suck: I'm sick and putting together a powerpoint presentation on Rules Concerning the Use of the Comma (zzzzzzz) on a Saturday night. My graphics board is acting up again so I can't play videogames, and I don't have the time to call up the technician this week. I also have tons of papers to grade.

    Rule: I have a beautiful, huge 2-bedroom apartment all to myself with my very own library stocked full of nice books and pretty things. I have 3 well-fed, loved cats. I have a brother who I love and who loves me, who is a great friend.

    Bad news: I got the day of my friend's going away sushi party wrong and had us drive all the way into the city through Boston traffic for no reason.

    Good news: I didn't miss the going away party, it's happening tomorrow and there will be inhuman amounts of homemade sushi.

    Suck: My Skyrim keeps crashing, and I'm now 98% certain it's a certain, really awesome mod that's the source. I don't wanna cut that mod out because it's really cool, but my saves keep getting corrupted :(. I'm also way tired and don't have a lot of brainpower for doing anything involved, and Skyrim is my main low-function distraction.

    Rule: I have cider.

    @ZeroEsper I have one job with a regular payday and one freelance-ish thing that gives me work one week and pays the next for the previous week's efforts. Yesterday I got a payment from the second job, and tomorrow I'm getting paid for a commission (commissions are an entirely different beast). And payday is next week, yay.
