May. 6th, 2007 11:17 pmGot a long-overdue haircut today. My head feels oh so much lighter and cooler, and no longer looks like a family of rodents is making a nest when I wake up.
Today was a day of shitty weather, full of thunder (which freaked out the dog) and fluctuating torrents of rain. These torrents tended to be present when I had to be outside (bringing in groceries, walking the dog, taking out trash) and then gone once I went inside. This is my curse in life - whenever I need to run outside in the rain, the weather will choose that exact moment to kick it up a notch. The ever-present oppressive grayness of the day also just wore on me for a while. For a pale white computer/gamer geek, I have this inexplainable need for direct/semi-direct sunlight. You'd think I'd wilt and die the minute the sun hit me, but instead it just leaves me feeling good. On the other hand, the ambient air temperature and humidity consipre to kick my ass in the sun's place.
( More baby talk )
Haven't had a lot of free time otherwise. Maybe next weekend I can work on painting my Tau army some more, but I'm taking it one day at a time. Been occupying my spare time with reading (mostly RPG books - I need to crack open a novel or three sometime), as it's something that I can easily pick up/put down. Free time - time that I'm not busy running an errand or taking Andi off of Z's hands so that she can rest or shower or eat or such - is at a premium, even moreso than I ever expected. It's been a frustration for me, but I know it's been one for Z as well - she hasn't been able to do art for a couple of weeks now - but eventually we'll get everything sorted out and get back to something loosely resembling our previous existence.
