Today I'm in a bit of pain so as usual, I'm not the happiest of campers. My monthly visit from Aunt Flo tends to make me feel depressed and since I'm out of Vitamin B Complex at the moment I'm just going to be sad for the week. Thankfully, I'm looking forward to Christmas on the weekend, a service at Apostles, and a visit to my grandmother for her birthday.
Today, however, is cold and dark and lonely. I tried to play something cheerful (Ponyo on the Cliff) but Pandora keeps bringing back really melancholy music - like Hallelujah by Rufus Wainwright. Beautiful song, but very, very sad.
I watched a stop-motion film that a friend suggested (some friend! haha) and...oh, great. Now "Imagine" is playing. BOO, Pandora. Anyway. Some friend who knows I like stop motion and bittersweet stories suggested this Australian stop-motion. I should have known better. NEVER EVER EVER EVER watch Australian stop motion. Nothing is sacred. Which I suppose means I shouldn't watch Australian movies, as they are probably the same. Or at least, the television programs there. Anyway...it was just TRAGIC. Nothing redeeming, although it tried very hard. Yuck.
I did find some happy things to do today - I downloaded some character questionnaires and am skipping a few steps in the Snowflake Method in hopes that it will be sufficient to distract me from the pain, which, I gratefully add, is not as bad as I was expecting. Praise to the Lord for this huge blessing. (I mean that)
I'm going to try some acupuncture massage tonight in hopes that my 1 Christmas party and our last D&D campaign of the year won't be complete disasters or canceled due to my Aunt Flo's hatred of my body.
Now if I can get through this week and record some harp music for Christmas presents, I shall be infinitely grateful.
