I have been SO productive!!! I love being myself again. Gone are the days of sitting around in pajamas in front of the computer. I get up, I get dressed, I cook, I clean, I work, I run errands, and I DON'T WORRY. This is so groovy. It feels so good to be Normal Sarah again.

I organized the kitchen cupboards and washed the floor....

My car is okay. It turned out to be nothing that needed repair, but he did tell me to come back in if it started doing a couple of specific things. Yay.

I made lunch and talked to silvercord and Spike for a bit, and then I decided to go... *dun dun dun*... CHRISTMAS SHOPPING.



I didn't find what I was looking for (stuff for...

I'm a stupid head and didn't get my ankle checked last night. Maybe I'll do that today. I also need to get my car looked at. It's been making a funky noise for a while, but I haven't had the money to have it repaired. I still don't really have the money, but now I'm paranoid it's going to break right before the holiday traveling...

I've had an obsession with the Smiths today. I think I've listened to "Rush and a Push" at least ten times. I'm sure it's the weather. It's cold and grey, and it's getting dark so early now.

I've all sorts of things I could do tonight. Aristocles and I may get together and watch a movie, I could call my friend Lydia and head to...

My roommate put a bunch of winter/Christmas decorations on the windows, doors, and mirrors last night.

She hasn't gone all-out (yet), but having them up before Thanksgiving is sick, sad, and wrong...

Mmmm... sleep... finally... I don't feel as rested as I should, but it's nice to know the insomnia may be coming to an end. I had a wicked, nasty dream and woke up freaked, but I got myself back to sleep by cuddling my kitty.

I can't believe it's Friday already. I was going to go up north this weekend, to visit Mom while the...

Wow. Tonight was really cool. Spike called me, from England, and we talked for 2.5 hours. I really pity him when that bill arrives. Not to mention, I used up my entire daytime minute quota.

Still, it was a fabulous conversation, and I dig his accent.

I watched "Survivor" afterward. I love that show. It's all silvercord's fault for getting me hooked on...

Today was sort of up and down. I had a great day at work, and I got to go home an hour early (with pay) because I ROCK.

I used that time to go to Barnes & Noble and then the grocery store for milk and fruit. I plan to spend the evening watching the snow while reading. This works out perfectly since my...

I slept SIX WHOLE HOURS last night. Granted, this was from 10:00 PM - 4:00 AM, and I woke up with a minor panic attack, but it beats the hell out of two-hour naps throughout the night that wake me with severe panic attacks. I think I see the light at the end of a tunnel that was WAY too fucking long.

City Club this...

"You are a godsend."

That's what my new boss said to me at the end of my shift today. I had tweaked Access a bit to allow me to enter stuff a hell of a lot quicker, which means I'm now working at 8x the normal rate instead of 5, like he said on my first day.

I'm just a temp, working up to the...

I just found out one of my favourite co-workers/friends died this morning. I've known him since February 2001, and we continued to exchange email when I started working from home last year.

He was one of the sweetest people I knew. He was confined to a wheelchair and had limited control of his hands and neck, but I didn't realize he had a fatal disease....

I'm still having horrible nightmares, but I'm getting a bit more sleep. Now I just have to get my body to adjust to specific *times* to sleep. (It keeps making me want to pass out around 7:00 PM).

It looks like I'm getting a new kitty soon. I've been meaning to get a companion for Gomez since we gave his sister to my friend back...
