feeling: wiped
listening to: something by Lacuna Coil stuck in my head


Another Thanksgiving come and gone. Dad actually attempted to cut a few corners in cooking this year - like, only one pumpkin pie instead of two (cutting the grand total of dessert dishes down to a lean 6 :P), and a slightly smaller turkey >> - but he still spent probably 25 total hours or more cooking when all was said and done. And yet somehow I think we have even more leftovers this year than we have in the past. He's not gonna have to cook another meal for like, a week... and after that it'll still take another 2 or 3 weeks to get rid of everything. Then the Christmas cooking can begin. I love this season. :P

It was kinda sad when they had to carry my grandma up the stairs to bring her into the house... but at least she felt well enough to come at all, I suppose. Still, at least last year she could still climb the stairs, with assistance. Every holiday get-together makes me wonder just how many more she'll be able to spend with us...

Anyway, that's that.

In random news, Phoenix is still a little punk. Hard to believe how much he's turned around since I cleaned all the algae out of his tank and got him new java moss and frozen food for the first time in months. It's like it took a year off his life. He even has two little bubblenests going on today.

And for those who remember the tiny pond snails that stowed away in the new java moss I got for him and the late Pixel... two of the four, the biggest and the smallest, remain. They're living quite comfortably in Pixel's old tank, which is filled to halfway with the leftover java moss that she only got a couple weeks' use out of before her tumor got the better of her. And little Tiny, who seriously was no bigger than little Pixel's eyeball a month ago, is now at least twice his former size. o.o He might even be grown enough now to escape Phoenix's big snapping jaws. Also, he has taken up the habit of crawling along the underside of the water's surface. How does he do that? o.o

I need to decide what kind of filter and second plant to get for my new 5g tank and find a place to set it up so I can put a new fishie in it and have two little wiggledancing punks in here again...

And now I think I'll go mess with my LJ dream log... it's been a weird couple of weeks...

feeling: blech
listening to: Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer stuck in my head


Yeah, my parents' favorite station is already playing nonstop Christmas music. Even I think it's too early for that, and I have a long-standing fondness for the stuff. >> Well, the ones that skip on the annoying commercial themes anyway. But dude, they could at least wait until Thanksgiving...

Ah, Thanksgiving is coming. Which means it's almost that magical time of the year where my father spends the greater part of three full days cooking enough food and desserts to feed an army, leaving our fridge and countertops full of leftovers for no less than a month. Food is lovely. *heart*

But speaking of Christmas stuff starting early, our new pastor has been all excited about resurrecting and joining the church brass ensemble ever since he got here, so whereas in previous years we would only meet a couple times before the program, this year we're starting practice early. Namely, tonight. And every Sunday evening at 5:30 for the next month or so. And since there are only about 6 people in it and I'm the first chair trumpet, it's gonna be really hard to play hookey on practices like I've been doing with choir all season so far. -_- Not that I mind being part of this stuff... I just don't like doing anything on Sundays other than napping. >> Even worse, it's gonna make it even harder for me to see my kitty this month. *whine*

On the plus side, they had a ton of homemade ice cream at church leftover from Tuesday's election luncheon, so now I have 2 quarts. It ain't Ben & Jerry's, but it's better than nothing, and it was free. And on the most amusing note of the day... one little boy who came to church with the pastor's family this morning TOTALLY looked like a six year old version of Andres. :P Dark complexion, shoulder length black hair, even the same style of clothes. And he was carrying around a Care Bear with sunglasses. *giggles* I've never found it so difficult to resist the urge to randomly glomp a child.

On non-church related notes... hmm... our mama deer with the triplet fawns has returned to our front yard once or twice. I've never seen deer as fearless as this doe and the baby trio she brings here every year or two. Pretty cool. And if they keep coming back maybe I can actually get pictures of them after all. *pets brand new camera batteries*

Anyway... I feel blech. Slept for 2 or 3 of the 5 hours I spent in bed, woke up with a headache, and now my stomach is being all weird. And I have to be ready to leave at 5... so I suppose I should go try to get my nap in before then.

feeling: groggy
listening to: Tarzan - Phil Collins - You'll Be In My Heart


Eeesh, what a sucky weekend that was. I don't think I've ever been THAT depressed, especially for no apparent reason (or with no apparent provocation, anyway). If crying is any measure of depression severity, I think I set a record. Three nights in a row spent bawling like a baby, after never shedding a tear for like, 5 whole years... not for lack of trying, but because I just don't cry, or so I thought >>... so yeah, that was all special. Not a fun weekend.

I'm fine now though. Felt better by yesterday, really, but yesterday was annoying for reasons of its own. >> For one thing it was the day before an election day, which meant phones ringing off the hook with "VOTE FOR OUR CANDIDATE" calls, completely eliminating any chance of sleep after about 9:30 in the morning. Then my nephew arrived and wouldn't let me nap away the afternoon, all of which resulted in one very tired and grumpy me.

And it's all stormy and icky outside right now. Was like that all night too. Kept me up until after 6 am. =_= Well, that and the fact that my mind was so full of random weird thoughts that sleep wouldn't have been possible anyway. So I guess I'm back to being your good ol' everyday insomniac. Yay.

Honestly, though, I do feel better. >>

And I thought there was something else I meant to say... but I forget. Oh well, storm's getting nasty again so I should probably submit this before we lose power.

feeling: worthless
listening to: HIM - Dark Light


I still want to know what in the bloody blazes is wrong with me.

Well, I take that back. I know exactly what's wrong with me. I just don't know why, no matter what I do or how I try, I can't change it.

Seriously, why do any of you (or by now, maybe I should say either of you) even bother with me? I have absolutely nothing worthwhile to offer. Nothing that a million other people couldn't easily provide, anyway. And any one of them would surely be better at it.

I think I'll find a nice hole somewhere to crawl into and make myself invisible. I don't want to be a thorn in anyone's side anymore.
