Earth-bound misfit.

Wow.

The moon is incredible today. It perfect silver, and the clouds around it are all misty gold. And the sky is the deepest, richest blue ever. There's great moon-gazing to be had here. Even at 3:00 in the afternoon.

Other news: One of my neices has started to crawl. We made goop at work. (Cornstarch and water... It's solid if you squeeze it, but melts into goo when you don't. The little guys get a kick out of it.)

I've been trying to cook in such a way that my sister can eat too. She hates the taste of meat. The folks are pretty much carnivores. It's a strange line I have to walk.

Everywhere I look there's a can of pop. But since the affects of drinking it have become almost immediate, I am definitely calling it quits on the stuff. ( *swig* *stab of pain* "Ow! Rrh." *swig again*) You would think that it would be easier to give up on something that hurts. Addiction is a terrible thing.

I haven't been doing too well on my resolutions so far. I've written them down. And that's about it. Maybe it's the full moon, but I haven't been able to focus on things enough to get them done or relax enough to sleep. I feel pretty much wiped out, but since I haven't been able to sleep very well the past few nights, that might be a good thing.

go out and howl at the moon.

It's -35. I'll be doing my howling indoors.

Yikes on the pop thing. (You have a toothache? Is that why it hurts so much?)

[bane-6.livejournal.com]

If only.
A toothache I could get at to fix. My pains are internal. There's one in my chest where I know I have a cyst and one down in my abdomen, where I don't know what's going on. Maybe I have a cyst there too. I'm thinking of saving up for one of those full body scans where they can see everything down to potential bloodclots. Get it all over with at once and see what my innards are doing where they think I can't get to them. All I'm sure of that whatever it is, it doesn't like pop.

I've made goop back when I was homeschooling my kid. It was fun!

I'm sorry you're getting sick from pop though, but I do understand it's not so easy to quit.

I'm drinking tea instead. That hasn't had any bad side affects except for another person's reaction to finding a used tea bag in the sink. Once she realized it wasn't a drowned mouse, she calmed back down.
