^snerk Good news: I haz strawberries. Bad news: They need to eated today and I dunno what to do with them because I don´t feel like eating them raw.
i bet if you mention it in the kitchen thread folks will have many ideas! (i don't really cuz i don't like cooked fruit/berries but others probs will)
bad news: I think I accidentally offended a close friend of mine and I don't know what to do good news: another friend is coming over in an hour or two and we're going to play Pheonix Wright
Bad: Light rain on the last day of moving a/k/a "Rigs vs. The Monster in the Basement". Good: It won't get really hot today. Plusgood: Monday is a holiday in the US, so I have an extra day to get things done. Bonus Bad/Good! Bad: The exterior wall of our old place seems to have fallen off the building. Or been removed--anyway, the brick is gone and the side of the building is covered with scaffolding. Good: We don't live there anymore.
Suck: i got a nasty cold+ migraine duo and was up all night feverishand choking and hurling into a pot cause i was too lightheaded to stand. Rule: have a soft warm cuddlelump sleepin on my lap and another on my feet. <3
Suck: my drawing tablet is malfunctioning so I had to give it a time out. I have to construct a drilling platform in Maya and I have to simplify it because there are WAY too many components, which means I'm having an argument with my brain half obsessed with detail, and my other brain half obsessed with efficiency. Also: I'm too poor for Cinema4D. Rule: I just figured out that if i want to get a good diagram of the drilling mast on top of an offshore platform is to type in 'offshore drilling derrick' and I'll get some very good reference photographs. Working on this challenge is firing off satisfied feelings in my brain, and making me less punchy whenever a bad memory comes floating up. Also: I just had lunch and for once I didn't binge and I'm very proud of that.
Bad: just being tired morphed into another full blown migraine. Good: I feel like making strawberry muffins BEFORE I go get groceries and forget the stuff needed for strawberry muffins Great: having a stress breakdown on my mamas Facebook seems to have made her feel guilty enough to get at least one of my uncles ashamed for leaving their responsibilities with a 23 year old, mentally ill person. Sorta bad: I had a whole The Reason You All Suck speech prepared to post on our family group and now I'll have to change some details ):
@littlemissCodeless still technically raw but not plain at least: dip them in melted chocolate? Or slice them, mix with a bit of sugar and maybe a touch of lemon juice depending on how sweet you like them and top with whipped cream? Or you could boil them with sugar and water and lemon juice and make a strawberry syrup for pancakes or drinks or whatever.
Bad news: I have lots of stuff to do that I don't want to do (story of my life :P) Good news: I made delicious chocolate muffins, with very little effort :D
Bad News: Friend of mine is worried, other friend is (as always) incommunicado, so I have no idea what is going on and it upsetting. Also Paper. Good News: I am almost entirely done with History paper, just have to do things like put all my sources and footnotes.
Suck: work changed my schedule so I worked all today, all tomorrow, and all the while my family was going to be home on my birthday. Rule: I still have enough time to get my license changed over so I can drink on my birthday!
Bad: I got a mild sunburn from being outside for ten minutes. Good: Had a fun day with family and my sports teams won/are winning!
Bad: still haven't talked to pharmacy about renewing meds. Good: getting groceries tomorrow, so can talk to pharmacy in person (WAY better than calling). also, gotten a bunch of stuff done today already.
Bad news: Slight headache, swamped with tasks concerning work and study, slightly overwhelmed by the amount of things to do before I'm able to art school like I want. Good news: Able enough to take care of it all, to earn myself some money and to work hard towards achieving my dreams. Bad news: Class today when I'd like to just go home Good news: No longer nervous at the prospect of teaching
Bad news: budding headache, bloated, pmsing like crazy. Eyes hurt because of damn computer screen and I'm wearing sunglasses to relax a bit. Cranky because I've been looking for over two hours through patent files for a clear diagram of how drilling rigs are constructed and the dimensions of ye olde semi-submersible. Good news: oh my god my drilling rig is looking so good. I've finished the derrick, and I'm constructing the pontoons. It's going a lot faster now, and I learned a LOT about semi-submersible structure and the latest trends in offshore drilling so I've got something to talk with my father about. Who wants to buy a platform with me? Cheapest model is 2.6 Billion euros for a 1997 Spar model. (I've gone a little manic too) Also ice cream.
Bad news: Had big to-do list for the weekend, got sick and finished almost none of it. Good news: Plague seems to be in retreat and I'm going to go see Mad Max: Fury Road tonight. :)
Bad: i haven't started the writing i have to hand in tomorrow at my 8AM class and i have negative motivation to do it good: it's... not long? i just have to answers some questions on social media based on an episode of the IT crowd.
