half my life's in books' written pages

flyakateMental note for tomorrow: only ONE soda. You have gotten down to just one, so all this excess caffeine is pissing off the stomach. Silly girl. Also? NO CHOCOLATE. See previous stomach pissing off. No good, I tell you. Fuck this anxiety shit; tonight is one of those times I wish I could be one of those "normal" people whose bodies didn't randomly freak out for no reason. On the upside, I've gotten the blood numbers back from the doctor (who says that my family is not crazier than Sirius Black's, for what it's worth. god he's strange) and I am exceedingly healthy. Which is nice. Except my stomach gets PISSED OFF. *would glare at it if that would help*
On the plus side, I own some actual excerise clothes, which I can wear and get fit in, and they are mine. *is five, gleefully* Also? I procurred House of Leaves from Borders--which took a bit of finding because I would have put the book in Literature but it was in horror, oooooh scary, which I guess makes sense too--as well as Finding Serenity, for pure geeky fun.
And, with what I've heard about HoL, to give myself something to read when I can't sleep at night for fear. Oh goody. Is it sad that I'm excited? Clearly a masochist, me.
Got to see mom's mom today (which doesnt connect well with masochism, although is amusingly apt. I mean...) which was nice. Also, had childhood-reminiscent cheese soup and bread for lunch (and dinner!). Mmmmmmm. Also a rambly drive past all the housese I lived in when I was wee. For, in case you were unaware, I lived in CA until I was 10. Still miss it a lot, and will most likely return there after finishing Grad School. At least, it's looking that way at the moment.
Only two more days until Family Fest, or The Reunion. Whichever. Lots of caps and such. Because it deserves it. There are campfires and cousins and a softball game and kids games with a balloon toss and t-shirts and laughter and booze and camping and early mornings and late nights. Sooooo excited. Nostalgic, but excited :o)
On a sidenote, for all its corniness, I love the 'Aslan theme' on trumpets that runs through so much of the Royal Shakespeare Company's version of "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe". It almost makes up for Lucy's line about feeling as "lonely as a teddybear that has lost both its ears". WTF does that mean? "Always Winter Now" and "The Lion Leaps" are still my favorite. Though I am now thinking that poor Lucy is just getting stuck with all the most ridiculous lines. Poor dear.

And California rocks. I have a love/boredom relationship with Cali, but in the end I always come back to love. :)
