This is definitely a day where I am so daunted by my various to-do lists that my first inclination is to fuck off and play nintendo all day instead. And by "play nintendo," I mean "watch Netflix." I'm not gonna, mind, but the temptation is there and it is STRONG I tell you.
This afternoon I'm shipping out to Boston (WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAA) to pick up the kiddos. Actually looking forward to the drive and gleefully burning a few CDs for the trip. Of course, some major CLEAN ALL THE THINGS and other stuff has to get done first... boo. Maybe after cup of coffee #3. *sigh* Glad the kids are out this weekend, honestly. I need as many reasons as I can get to completely forget what day it is from now until Sunday, and they are VERY good for giggly 24 hour distraction.
I made the observation to
cell23 this morning that in terms of MAJOR stressors, I'm down to exactly one - money. Compare and contrast this to six months, a year, two years ago, three years ago, five years ago? I'm doing pretty good. I am still marvelling at the complete lack of drama in my interpersonal relationships right now and it is pretty damn awesome. Course, money is still a major source of angst and stress, but really at this point? Nowhere to go but up, and I think my brain has bounced enough to actually get a move on getting that handled. Still... I'm pretty okay healthwise, my friends are awesome people, and
cell23 and I not only haven't murdered each other yet, but we seem to actually really like the whole living together thing. So you know, for being fairly broke, life is pretty good.
Still going through books like whoa, and am really happy that I managed to score the exact edition of
The Master And Margarita that I lost off of Paperback Swap. My library feels a little less bereft. :) Currently reading
The Season, which is
adorable - it's a young adult Regency romance written by a friend of mine from Smith. Gah. I have GOT to start writing fiction again. Well. On the bucket list for 2011 maybe.
I've gotta hit the road by 2, by hook or by crook, and this thousand mile to-do list isn't going to do itself. Off to cry havoc and let slip... something.
