Low Coolant

I was driving back from Spiral last night and my low coolant light came on. I knew this was coming, because I’ve been catching whiffs of burnt coolant coming from the thing when I turn it off. I’m not risking a long drive with a problem like that, so I’m going to have to bail on IPM. That blows. Also delays any plans of getting down to Ohio to visit. Sonofabitch.

Accomplished yesterday.

  • Made doctor’s appointment for today.
  • Did all of my taxes. (2 tele-files, and 1 mail-in… stupid Lansing City Tax)
  • Visiting with Ani and Abby (AKA catching up on gossip about ).
  • Mucho writing at Spiral.

To do today:

  • Doctor’s appointment
  • Buy stamps
  • Send out at least 3 resumes
  • Green Spiral
  • Vacuum room
  • Prepare lunch for tomorrow

Maybe I should be like and cross them off as I get them done. Hrm.

Musing

I bought a barely used leather trench coat yesterday. It hangs about three inches above ground level. It rocks.

I need to shave before I head out to Spiral tonight, as well as sending out those resumes. Maybe I’ll even have time to vacuum my room.

I wrote an entry for the . I’m taking a more active hand in things, and hopefully that will get taken up by the other writers.

Grey skies and misty rain make me smile. I’m totally digging this weather. A little bit warmer and it’d be perfect. I should do a small ritual today later on, maybe when I get out of work, I should head to Beal Gardens before going home. It’s been a long time since I’ve done an out-and-out ritual. Plus, I have a new trench coat. Cleansing and sanctifying everyday things for ritual use… I love crossing that line, because then there is no difference between every day and n ritual. Then you are practicing every minute of your day. That’s why I try to keep some representation of a dragon near me all the time… to remind me.

Accomplishment

Ok, everybody can rest easy now and quit bugging me. I made my doctor’s appointment for that bit of swelling that’s not going down on my knee. 1:30 tomorrow afternoon. I’ll know then if it’s water on my knee.

It’s a different doctor, cuz my normal doctor was out of town when I went last time, so I get to explain the whole situation over again. Woo hoo.

Done, not done, and to do.

What I did:

Organized my new photos into my album, and got them ready for scanning for an album project I’ve had banging around in my head for years. The layout’s in my head too. Fun stuff!

What I should have done:

Mailed out more resume’s to the openings in the Detroit area.
Stupid Skippy.
Vacuumed my room.

What I need to do tomorrow:

Work.
Keep up regularly on my ibuprofin. Knee pain makes me uber-cranky.
Send out resumes.
Watch and bowl.
Go to Spiral for the new version of GothScape. I wonder how many times they’re going to re-invent it.. I hear they’re trying to find a LARP to play there Tuesday nights. Interesting. Perfect venue for one. Horrible night for one.

Eye Squinty

Black Adder marathons are nice, especially when they’re with cool peoples.

Had a great time. Missed . My own damn fault. Next time, we’re gonna hafta plan a place and a time.

My game went ok. Need more players. Anybody that reads my journal interested in a Sabbat LARP? Heh.

I vacuumed my whole apartment. Well, except for the bedrooms. I’m going to vacuum mine tonight. I cleaned three layers off of our counters and stove top. More to do. Only so much cleaner chemical smell… wooozy….

I like juice.

Next weekend I’m going to go to IPM. Well, if they’ll have me. I had other stuff I wanted to get done in Detroit, but I can’t remember what they were at the moment.

That could be related to my attempt to wean myself from the ibuprofin. Maybe it’s too early, cuz my knee throbs.

Anime is good.

I am frustrated with myself again, but only in steps. I’m getting a lot done, but how much of that is just filling the space while I procrastinate from doing what I really should? Like making cryptic journal posts. :)

Yeah. Fun Black Adder marathon.
