tarotgalAnother day of randomness.
Stomach's been going in and out. Had a lovely dinner of toast, a lunch of soup, and a breakfast of bland plain pankcakes. I'm going to have to think about what to do about lunch tomorrow. I'm not going to be able to eat just anything the bossman throws at me.
It's been a day of car trouble. Mine failed inspection last week, so I dropped it off to be fixed tonight/tomorrow. My mother's going to give me a lift to work tomorrow morning (which makes me feel 10 years younger, but only because I REFUSE to borrow her car because I nearly hit three cars the last time I drove it with its fucking blind spots!). Last night my sister (who was supposed to be studying all night NOT out with her new-found boyfriend *giggly squeals that my little sister has her first boyfriend*) blew a tire. We got it replaced today and after repeatedly blowing off two Mormon blokes who looked like they were going to DIE if they didn't get to help up two female strangers finish changing a flat tire, we went to open the side door of the van and it wouldn't open. Let me rephrase that. It wouldn't open because the sliding door seems to have slipped off its track. Like it did once for me at a tailgating party. Lucky I'd had a handful of lovely strong men to help me put the giant door BACK ON my car. So we didn't pull it off and try to put it back on, but the door's ready to fall off at any time now. And the poor van is SO old it might not be worth getting it replaced and it's so sad!!!!! I love that van!!! Drove across country and up to Canada and back in it at least 5 times. It's so sad! I don't know what we're going to do about it. *sigh*
I also had fun working on calculus for 5 hours. Least that took my mind off the stomach thing. Which got immensely worse when I went outside for an hour to walk the neighbor's dog for them. I wonder if it's at all connected with the heat from the start, or if the heat just complicates the problem. It doesn't help, I know that much.
It's also been a day (well, LATE late night) of Buffyfic. Thanks in no small part to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
shadowscast I am officially INCREDIBLY obsessed with Xander/Spike. And, more importantly, S/X h/c. It's like... I don't know... pure bliss. All the possibilities and dynamics and the sounds and visuals- Guh!!! If fic were sugar IVs, S/X h/c is just pouring bags of pure sugar into me. It's unbelievably intense, undiluted, perfected bliss. And it's made me remember why I stopped reading WIP's. LOL! (I'm such a "just one more chapter" fanfic junkie). But S/X h/c? Guuuuuuhhhhhh!
And, yes, okay, I've been sort of inspired to start my own. It's VERY plotless and quite pedestrian in comparison to some of the great works out there already, but I don't plan on churning it out or anything. I just want to sit on it a while and see where it takes me. And hug and cuddle the boys as my own for a little while before I actually DO anything with them publically. GHODS but I love writing. I constantly live in fear of a day when I can't use my hands and am unable to write. What a horribly morbid thing to think about on a daily basis, but it's sadly true. And I think being knee-deep in Vampires and angst for the last day is definitely taking its toll. Maybe I shouldn't watch Buffy again tonight when I go to sleep... *thinks about falling asleep to sexy crying!Spike and takes that back*
