Feel… not better, but yet better. ^^; The elbow is doing alright - medicated myself this morning pre-emptively, which helped a lot with that and the headache. Still exhausted and achey and ill, though. Gonna sleep now.

Apparently we’re having a big to-do on Friday. Manager wants me to come in - didn’t say how long or for what, but it’ll be stuff like restocking and handing out samples, I think. The question is, should I go in? Radio station will be there and everything… I’d have to be really fucking chipper. Erk. …I might go in for a few hours. Certainly not a full shift - I’m not that spineless.

So goddamn tired. Fuck you, body. I do not want to deal with your shit - waking up every hour is getting really, really old. Also? I don’t care if my elbow hurts whenever I lift my arm or move it in any direction- you had damn well better stretch out, because I’m still going to work. No, don’t bother making me ill. Still going to work. Can medicate the headache away too.

God, I don’t want to go to work. I’m forbidden from calling in, though. Dunno how that works, but… Too much of a wimp to call in anyway. Promised myself I’d go a month without skipping out. Erk. Can’t believe I’ve had this damn job for half a year…

Shan visited, which was very nice. There was shooting of polygons and rolling of polygons and I gots me some Tom Waits CDs and really, it was just nice to hang out. Even if we were terribly indecisive about what to do. XD I feel bad for not paying for breakfast, though - I had no cash, so I don’t feel bad about the other stuff, but I coulda done breakfast. (But then we didn’t know what we were gonna do, so that’s silly - and we did do the coin toss.)

Anyway. Played some Katamari - I keep saying I’m going to and then doing something else. Such a fun game! XD Roll, roll… Very Zen. Just roll it all up and toss it in the air. XD

I’m terribly hungry. I wonder what we’re doing for dinner. *pokes tummy* Mum’s sick, so she probably won’t be doing much, and Neesan’s vegetarian, but she hasn’t been up in a while… *ponders the vagarities of dinner*

Much better this morning. Woke up with my shoulders completely relaxed - they’re back to the usual headache-inducing steel now, but it was nice. Not gonna do too much this morning, I think. Trying to write - I’m at a part in one story where I can just slap words down, which is what I need to kickstart the writing process again. ^^; So fickle.

I think I’ll play some Katamari too. So much fun. X3

So, Bawls. I’ve never had it before. It is somewhat good for sipping, but chugging at all gets kinda… interesting. And, um, I was tired before I started drinking it. XD

Urk, I forgot what excessive caffiene does to me. Sleeping this off now. >_< There’s only a few things that automatically make me ill, and excessive caffiene is one of them. Never shoulda forgotten that. (Fortunately, I am tired now. At, uh, 3am. Whatever.)

My good deed of the day was cheering up two different people with unexpected gifts. I had given them gifts yesterday, but I felt like doing more today. It felt really good, which should not surprise me. (It is a more lasting good feeling than getting something for myself, which does surprise me. I like aquiring things.)

I feel sick. I think it’s from cleaning my snake’s cage, which means I need to do that more often. Ehe. I’m still kinda fumbling through this snake stuff - green tree snakes are not pythons, which is what all the books and merch are aimed at. They’re arboreal, or however you spell that (wow my head is woozy), so all those rules about the weight of the water dish and such just don’t apply - tree snakes don’t burrow under the dish. I do know I need a mister of some sort - forgot to get that today. I’ll get it once these checks are cashed - I’m gonna get a vertical tank too, which will be better for the dear. And I just finally managed to arrange everything so she won’t poop in her water when she’s hanging out in the vines…

But anyway. Gonna roll today, I think. Or, er, clean some. ^^; Laundry, pick up some stuff in my room, see if I have a frame for that picture Nicole gave me a while back… Poke parents for curtain rods. I’m sure I have curtains somewhere… Ah yes, there. Getting a little weird about changing with the neighbors right there outside my window. I’m sure they’ll be just as glad as I am when I get my curtains up.

I also need lightbulbs. Man, today is just a doing-things day.

All that rolling has made me very tired. I’m sure there’s other things I should be doing, too. Like writing essays. Or writing fanfiction. Or discussing the finer mechanics of Kimbley’s arrays.

I MUST ROLL. ROLL, MY LITTLE GREEN FRIEND!

…Right, anyway. I kinda want to veg with some tea for a while, and then roll some more or make notes for fics or some such. …Actually, that sounds awesome. Get it all straight in my head, figure out how to make the ideas from the drabble meme turn from full fics back into drabbles. Figure what to do with this new Kimbley idea - maybe sketch out the inside of his head a bit. I still want to write something from his point of view, but my Kimbley has been really ADD lately. Only three people hold his attention now, and I’m not one of them. ^^;

Oh, right. Was gonna copy over the FMA Materials scans to LJ. And make that icon for Aru, but that involves finding a picture of Ed looking horrified and then animating stuff. Nyah.

If you hated Darth Vader’s “Nooooo!” at the end of SW3, you will spit liquid all over your computer screen as you listen to this.

So today I hung out with Nicole. There was scanning of doujinshi and squeeing and sketching and OMG KATAMARI DAMACY.

It is the best game ever. Tomorrow, I drag Dad out so I can buy it - but that is not the point! (Thankfully, it is cheap.) The point is that the nearness to Nicole’s Greed muse had woken up Kimbley - he was grumbling about the stink of the bastard being everywhere, and were those his boxers in the corner? Lazy homunculus never picked his crap up - but anyway, Kimbley was being sullen and noisy, and then Nicole let me play Katamari Damacy. Once I’d gotten the hang of thumbtacks and strawberries and mice, she loaded her save file and let me at the Moon Unlimited.

Kimbley got interested when I rolled up a baby cow.

Shortly thereafter it turned into an orgy of rolling up office buildings and demi-gods, all of them screaming in terror as their very existence was devoured by the katamari. Then we were rolling up towns! Entire islands! The land the people had walked on was gone! There was no evidence of humanity at all!

Kimbley was a very happy muse until we ran out of screaming things. The giant squid just didn’t cut it. Nicole will apparently be drawing a comic of his delight to go with the comic of Greed’s delight with the same game.

God, I love my head.

The post I was informed of (fma_yaoi).
My comment to her private journal.
The moderator post (fma_yaoi).
Her “apology” (my journal).
Another post using my icon in a comm (fm_alchemist).

She has not taken down my icon.

I’m beginning to get pissed off. Just a little. Gonna talk to the fm_alchemist mods soon, I think.

Yes, it’s just an icon. But it’s mine, and I spent hours making it, and she was fucking claiming it as her own. And she’s not taking it down. As if somehow, by not linking her userpics from her profile, she can magically hide that it’s still there. I’m shaking and pissed and it’s just very upsetting and I want it to be done and over with, because it’s silly but it’s important and I can’t focus on anything else right now. This has never happened before. I’ve never worried about this kind of thing before. Oh god, has anyone claimed my stories? Those are my babies - if someone took Crimson or Greedzilla - no, god, not gonna cry.

Edit: All better now. Phew. Huuuge sigh of relief.

I didn’t know I was cool enough to be plagarized.
