bending_sickleToday's Win: Talked to mom. Went outside for an approximately two hour walk (during the day, due to mom's prompting). Had a healthy lunch of vegetarian falafel with stuff-it-into-the-pita salad bar. Decided to call doctor tomorrow for appointment due to a) skin going back to its fucked-up status and b) fear for my kidneys (both reasons which, y'know, suck).
Today's Fail: Broke down completely after speaking with mom. (Ah, wrenching sobs of indeterminate fail, brought about by massive hormonal fuckedness, social withdrawal and panic over the future, how I loathe thee.) Didn't look for a job. (Major, major fail.) Instead, knit and watched Nevermind the Buzzcocks for fear of the Dodo of Doom dragging me down again. Also, number of tabs with fics pending to read: eight. Likewise, Human Target scribbles to be written as a review still pending, as are three dreams - to say nothing of fic - and has been pending for about a week now.
Squee of the Day: Anon.'s Watchmen Fic, Sweet Child of Mine is Updated \o/ And now goes up toeleven twenty-six!
Meme - 30 Days - Day 13 → A fictional book: Hilariously, I think the memester meant fiction book, as in a work of fiction, rather than fictional, as in only exists in a work of fiction. Still, I'll take the meme at it's word. Wiki knows there's a lot of fictional books out there. So, here's a list of fictional books I'd like to read - either because they're useful or interesting - once we develop L-space, listed as: Fiction Book by Author: Fictional Book by Author.
