I dreamed about the woman I can't have, listened to the second half of 'The Five People You Meet in Heaven,' walked in the rain to the library, took out and read a few graphic novels ('Exit Wounds' and 'The Plain Janes'), while reading them I transfered 'Ender's Game' to my iPod and took an hour nap, then started reading 'Coraline,' taking a break from that, thinking about starting a new blog. I ate some stuff at some point.

Thinking about eating some more (rice mixed with corn, onions, broccoli, and ground beef). My plan for the rest of the day is to finish 'Coraline' and start on 'Ender's Game.'

woke up still tipsy from last night's pity party.
did three hours of stats homework.
made breakfast of sauteed tomato, garlic, pepper, chives, oregano, cracked pepper, salt and one whole egg with two whites, drank a bottle of water.
walked 3 miles to and from the market. drank two bottles of water.
braved walmart AND lowe's. drank two more bottles of water.
fertilized plants and used new hose to water them.
stained shelves, waiting for them to dry so they can be hung over the stove to hold up my sprays, oils, etc.
finishing another bottle of water. (I refill a lot of them)
cracked open a Harp whilst waiting since it is still 100 degrees outside.
grabbed a hunk of the sundried tomato-oregano-garlic-whole grain bread bought fresh this morning at the market.
started episode one of Kitchen Confidential on hulu and marinated in my own sweat while waiting for shelving to dry.
once they're dry, will hang them, hang pictures on wall, rearrange cabinets, change litter box, take a shower, debate what to eat and possibly go see The Hangover at 9:15 around the corner.
will possibly then walk home with grumpy facial expression and pepper spray in hand so as not to be molested or spoken to by any weird people in the neighborhood.
and do the dishes at some point.

Acted like a fish and drank.

Cooked up some pasta- Leftover slow grilled chicken breast with grilled veggies (peppers, onions, mushrooms, garlic and capers) mixed in with some marinara and poured on top of rotini then topped with some fresh parmesan.

Then I ate and drank.

Had a yard sale. $160 for setting up a shitload of shit in 95 degree weather. Then having to pack up the shit that didn't sell for Goodwill. This is the 3rd yard sale I've had. I'm never doing one again. Unless I have like, 3 people helping.

Ended up in the ER around 4:00 for abdominal pain. I'm a regular there.

Came home and slept for an hour.

...i transplanted a gazillion baby Basil plants which promptly began to droop in the heat so i performed emergency surgery on them...individually shoring them up with extra soil and more water. I just checked and they've all perked up now...phew.

...moral of the story: don't buy 2 packages of seeds and sprinkle them all willy-nilly in a few planters....unless you want to make Pesto for all the TFPers here...and then some.

...i showered and then i went to the mall and bought a little summer dress to stay cool.

Put together another order of fish. Redistributed my cory fry among many tanks so they will grow faster. Changed the water on the upstairs tanks and cleaned the filters. Made souvlaki for me and the girls. Sweated. A lot. Like, did I have a saltwater tank, I would have been able to do the water change with Sweat.

Tried to take over the world.

How funny is that. I too had basil issues today. Planted from seed in pots. They're getting plenty of water but they're still wilting. Could it actually be the heat / sunlight?

I also cleaned up some today.
Transferred a snake plant to a much larger pot and brought it indoors. This thing is massive.
Transferred a black sweet potato vine to a hanging basket.
Spent about 20 minutes w/Dad.
Ate veal parm takeout for dinner.
Sunday night tv.
Computer.

Went to work, came home, put some laundry away while playing Sims 3, went to a Father's Day dinner, came home, played some Sims 3, went for a walk, and now we're watching Sunday night cartoons while I post on TFP...before some more Sims 3.

Slept in, watched four episodes of Band of Brothers, went to my aunt and uncles place for dinner, came home and watched two more episodes of Band of Brothers to finish up the series. Now I am sitting here while I finish my bowl of yogurt and granola then I am going to brush my teeth and go to bed. Yup, pretty productive!

So far, nothing productive and I'm liking it.

I slept in until 11:30; given the crazy insomnia I've been dealing with for the past month or so, I'm quite pleased. I feel great.

This afternoon we're going to be hanging out with Magpie's fam, because it's her sister's birthday. That should be a good time. I like her sisters, and her sister's boyfriend, and readers of my blog know that her parents are completely in love with me. It's a good thing overall.

I woke up this morning to go for a long bike ride with aberkok and his wife.

It's a ridiculously glorious day today. Sunny with big fluffy white clouds as far as the eye can see. At in a naturalized park trail, and there you have it.

Now I need to finish an assignment and do a bunch of dishes.

I'm hoping to sneak in a cat nap somewhere.

Tried to sleep off the world's worst hangover, fucked around online, read a book, watched TV - basically avoided the real world until I felt like a human being, again.

I'm still working on it. I'll probably sleep again, soon.

Slept the most pleasant sleep this week. Woke up this after noon to the sound of a semi truck on the beach. The stage is leaving! No more Mexican Woodstock out my back door!

Wonder what excitement awaits me next week?

8 hour fish tank day. Changed water on a 40, a 33, two 25s, three 20s, eight 10s, a fie and a half, and a 2 and a half. Separated out 12 albino bronze cories, 17 or so Gold Fundulopanchax gardneri, and 5 Hererandria formosa fry to get my breeder's award points at the meeting tomorrow. Also switched my Aphyosemion striatum and Fundulopanchax gardneri breeders in the hopes that the Aphys will breed in the tank the gardneris were breeding in. Culled my guppies - kept the best 6 males and 12 females, separated out the 12 remaining males and 20 best remaining females, and tossed 30 or so into my bushfish tank for snackies. What else? Redistributed the larges fry from my stage 1 cory and whiptail growout to other tanks. Set aside a pair of mature male Heterandria formosa for a friend, 12 good sized whiptails for auction, and 4 sterba's cories for auction. Also got 3 fry and 30 eggs out of the sterba tank and put them in the stage 1 growout with some malachite green to inhibit fungus. Thinned the salvinia and watersprite where it was getting out of hand, and started making a list of fish to enter in the fish show tomorrow: Ctenopoma acutirostre, Trichogaster trichopterus (I have a gorgeous female), Yoyo Loach (Botia almorhae), Diamond Tetra (Moenkhausia pitteri), Siamese Algae Eater, Rineoloricaria eignemanni (Whiptailed catfish), My male Festivum, my male Fundulopanchax, and one of my Bandit cories. Going to be a bit tricky to get them all there. Also, finished reading "An Empire Unacquainted with Defeat"

Took vicodin for the wisdom teeth that are no longer. Also a high powered antibiotic. Switched the 5.5 gallon Betta tank and the 5.5 gallon puffer tank so that the puffer tank would have more light. Woke up at 6, but probably have slept 8 of the last 12 hours.

Also, tried to take over the world (is difficult when you brain is detached, confuzzled, and 3/4 asleep.)

Drove for 45 minutes so I could wait for half an hour so I could do 2 hours' worth of work that got thrown away because it didn't need to be done. And made an effort at socializing that was a good diversion, but ultimately devoid of pleasure.
