Yesterday was physical work-o-rama. Cut down weeds in front/back/side yard, pull up ones that are too tough, put skeeter beater everywhere that bugs could breed, sweep out carport (harder than you might think, with all the junk that's there and Mr. Gothboy's welding slag), pick up fallen branches all over the place and throw them out in the woods. vacuum and wash car, which was nas-TAY.
2 1/2 hours of hard physical labor.
Soak in bathtub with epsom salts.
Do my haircut.
Do proofreading.
The next few days will be proofread-o-rama. I have a ridiculous deadline to meet. But I need the money so I never turn down a job, no matter how crazy it is. Plus it keeps the ol' brain in shape.
On another note, I got an ego boost. I was taking a break out on the porch at work and this woman walks up talking on her cell phone. She sees me and says hello. I turn to her and say hello. She drops her phone and shrieks OH MY GOD YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL! Daaaaamn, that was nice. I don't even have my hair styled, or anything special on...it's just plain ol'. But hey, I'll take it! Got a similar reaction from a woman at the club in Columbia last weekend. Y'know, when I was young and thin, this never happened. Never. LOL I guess I look better plus sized and middle aged.
When I look in the mirror, I wish I could see whatever they see! I just see a chubby old goth with thin hair and skin problems but nice tattoos. Meh, perhaps it is better not to be excessively vain though. That would *not* be beautiful.
Pancakes and scrambled eggs or tuna salad for dinner? :P
