I made really yummy mashed red bliss potatoes with onion, garlic scamps, and kale. Because the potatoes were elderly and needed to be made into something before they ended up in asciikitty's compost like all the other potatoes I have acquired over the last several months.

Patrick Wolf is awesome cooking music. But any good music is good to cook to, so...*shrug*


Now I have to decide if I can stand cleaning my room a bit or if I should just go work on an art project instead. Art will probably win. Oh! I know...I should see if those pens I have are really waterproof and if my wicked old water colors are still good enough to use. Fuck I have not done watercolors in ten years and I used to watercolor all the time. Lots of really crazy watercolored dragons with many, many tiny scales. Because I was pretty batshit insane and dorky even back in high school.

So...I'm going to Worldcon. Actually, I'm going to be working at worldcon, doing some people wrangling and such. And it should be fun, but I am trying to plan for the inevitable onset "Oh my god I hate everyone in the entire fucking world" which I know will happen because...I'm a fake extrovert, not a real extrovert. So...I'm going to bring some art supplies (and snacks. lots and lots of snacks.) and whenever I want to kill someone I'll just doodle (while eating a snack) instead. Like, I was sort of planning to bring my water colors, but then I realized I had about six randomly acquired Faber-Castell Albrecht Durer Watercolor Pencils that I just found while looking for something else entirely and they are the best thing ever so I think I might go get, like, an entire set at Pearl tomorrow because they do have those "20% off any one item" coupons and...art supply porn. Like, I looked them up on the Pearl website and I almost started drooling. I mean, I'm not going to get the set of 120 because that would be...not very portable. And also it's $154. But maybe the set of 36. Because 36 is a lucky number. We shall see.

Wait. I know this one! I've played this game before! It's "why the everloving fuck am I still up?"! My favorite. Obviously.

I rarely suffer from insomnia. I often suffer from not-going-to-bed-nia. I blame society the internet. And the fact that I have an amazing ability to be distracted. It's my super power. Well, that and avoiding things. Plus, my room is like ten feet away from where I'm sitting. That's far, you guys.

I know it's not actually really late (yet) but all this past week I was participating in my very own sleep dep experiments (conclusion: I still need sleep. damn.) and I was totally going to go to bed early tonight and I failed. *hangs head in sleepy shame*

I've been kind of spamming lj/dw today, haven't I? Ooops.

I will say this: it is hard to read the internet with your eyes closed.

Also: eczema can go torment someone else now. I am done. I would happily give my eczema away to some more deserving soul. Who would you bless with a really annoying itchy skin condition, you guys? Man, that would be cool, if I could give people eczema. I mean, on the whole I think I'd rather be able to fly or photosynthesize (on both!), but...whatevs.

Right. Sleep time for farwing for real.
