Anyone else buy reference materials for their fanfic?  I know most of the writers on my flist do heavy research for original fiction featuring original characters.  But, how much research do you put into fic?

Stuff...

Contrary to popular belief, stuff is not always cool.  Nor does it always rock.  Sometimes, stuff can really suck.  In an evil, rotten, sucky way.  I'm not going to go into massive detail, but yesterday sucked with the serious suckage, and the emotional fallout spilled over into today, making me once again that basket case who bursts into tears at her desk.

I'm trying very hard to find good points in the whole thing.  For a few minutes, I outsmarted the asshole who's been depriving me of yard tools.  My friend Kate is having desperately needed dental work done.  We're getting new doorknobs.

Yeah, sorry, that's the best I can do.  I'm kinda frazzled and unhappy at the moment.

Ah, the fun, the excitement!  Yeah, no, not really.  I stayed home last night, and did some poking around on the interweb, some cleaning, went grocery shopping, and just veged out.  It was nice, I needed that; I've been going 100 miles an hour for weeks, it seems like; either work is a mess, or I have a million things to do at home, or I've been out partying, or the leftover tiredness from all that other stuff has wiped me out.  But not today.

Slept in, but not too late.  I finally, FINALLY got the curtains hung in the dining room; with the help on my snazzy new drill (with much less snazzy bits; I broke two of them in the wood, and now need to buy/borrow pliers, and get more drill bits).  The dining room will be losing the giant cardboard box today!!!  In other news, the lawnmower is still MIA, but that won't stop me from picking up crap, and pulling weeds out by the roots, so yard work goes on.

Writing continues to be slow, which makes me crazy, but with the wonderful encouragement I got yesterday, I'm hoping it'll pick up.  Dancing tonight at my favorite dancing spot, and trying to stay out of the ice cream in the meantime.  No clue what I'm wearing; I have a feeling I'm gonna be running around the house freaking out at approximately 7.  

I had an epiphany this morning, while watching Bravo, of all things.  I need to focus more on being joyful, than on being peaceful, which has been my direction for a while now.  My moods fluctuate too wildly for peace to be my natural state; I should just embrace the moodiness, but spin it into good cheer and laughter.  So, that's my new mental/physical health project.  I'll keep you posted.

Now, back to the dining room, to hang my 'curio' shelf.  And, possibly a painting; don't know if I have the right nails for that.  Much love to all!
