On top of the cold i have, apparently a pimple decided to show up INSIDE MY EAR. its on a freakin nerve because it hurts like hell and i cant swallow anything without both my throat and my ear hurting. fuck this day.
Pop the pimple with a clean needle, very carefully. It'll hurt, but then it'll go away. In other news, autocorrect keeps turning "not" into "it" for some reason. I'm unhappy with this.
@tickingnectarine i would if i could see the damn thing. I'm more likely to stab myself in the ear since thats the case. i'd ask someone else in the house to do it but they either dont have steady hands anymore or cant see very well. the only one that would be able to do it is located in france until december :/ so painful pimple is here to stay...
AAAAaaaaaa my dad was supposed to drive down so we could go hang out with my aunt/uncle/cousins. but they've apparently got some nebulous problem going on so we can't go. i was really hoping doing this would be a nice break and fix my absurd anxiety over this paper, but no. i'm not mad at my dad, or my uncle, or anybody. but i am really sad.
I'm really tired so I keep slouching in my chair but the way I'm slouching makes a roll hitch over my ribs under my boobs and ahhh it is the worst thing i hate my body
this is really stupid but the last two comments on my story were really vauge and now i cant tell if anyone is enjoying where the storys going and i just wanna grab a reader and shake them till they tell me what they think ffs
Sharp, quick pain in ankle every few seconds. Very distracting and I am trying to work (and it's a Saturdaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay, I wanna lie on the couch and do nothing ;.;)
My roommates keep making giant batches of food and then not eating the leftovers so they have to throw them away, and I have no idea if the degree to which this makes my brain shriek is a reasonable level of distress at the amount of wasted food or food-insecurity-induced issues rearing their ugly head.
Tfw a fic goes magitech enough that a wandering planet is steered towards a new orbit, but the author doesn't take axial tilt or orbital distance into consideration and just lifts earth's seasonal and climatic patterns wholesale (Tfw you're 29 chapters into a story about giant space robots with a steerable planet and this is the thing that breaks suspension of disbelief. 0kay brain) Eta: So you acknowledge these are things but still couldn't come up with anything besides Earth climate I think I'm even more disappointed now
I'm laughing because I've read a series of fantasy novels where somebody did that and burned half the planet to a cinder, and had to restructure the entire planet with volcanoes spewing ash into the sky to block some of the sunlight, and create ash-digesting microorganisms and alter the biology of all the planet's flora to survive it. Somebody later tries to put the planet back where it was, and freezes half of everything and causes tidal waves that destroy almost all coastal civilization.
at least that sounds like the author put thought into it, even if the characters didn't OTL (At the risk of derail, what series? :o I am Interested)
The characters were trying! :::PPP They meant well! :::PPP And the first one did do a pretty good job of salvaging the mess after they Did The Thing, under the circumstances. It's semi-spoilery setting backstory for Spoiler Mistborn, by Brandon Sanderson. Comes out in the third book of the trilogy.
Cover letters and job applications. I have spent the better part of three hours this afternoon deciding what to put in one. I seriously hate this shit :( I'm also annoyed at my brain for simultaneously freaking out and being way too relaxed at the possibility of unemployment in a little over two months...

I need to go out and work on the car. Must be on on a weekend, must be done before it gets too cold. But I have not spoons.
Horrible flickering internet signal strength that doesn't affect my old laptop that my spouse uses, but DOES affect my current laptop and the defunct one he used to use. So he's chill and relaxing and I'm alternating between screaming and wanting to break things.
