Jul. 1st, 2011 01:10 pmTaking a break for a while with certain things. Drinking, for one. I'll probably still have the occasional drink but in my efforts to lose weight (official # now? 157.5lbs so the damage is worse than I thought) I'm cutting back a lot. I'll probably spend more time at home too, but that's unrelated for the most part. Just need a break from the louder socializing (ie Panoptikon*)... my brain just kind of needs a reset and spending some me time at home (and also importantly letting Will have some time just to himself to unwind on the weekend, as DragonCrest** hasn't had a full-weekend event in a long while)
I'll still see friends and whatnot, that's the kind of socializing I can definitely handle... and need, too. I can't ever go full-on hermit mode, I go just a wee bit stir-crazy. So for now I'm mainly just finding a comfortable balance to let myself get back into a bit more control of my life.
Got my Keenspot ad revenue at the last minute, so rent should be good to go. Also had surprise cash from generous sweet friends this week so yeah I had to fight off some tears, heh.
I finally get to meet my nephew. My sister and brother-in-law are moving to San Antonio (he's stationed there) and will be making a stop in our neck of the woods for a night. So I get to meet little Turtle! Also my youngest brother Joshua will be with them... he's 13 and apparently puberty has hit so I'm looking forward to seeing how different he is than the last time I saw him.
I dunno. Lots of brainstuff going on lately. My new shiny computerbits should be in early next week, so ART SOON! So excited, I've got a backlog of things to scan and color and post, ha.
The lack of completed art lately has been getting to me. I've probably been a bit of a pain to be around (Will is one of the most patient people alive)... too many things unbalanced and disturbed lately in life. So this break I'm taking is definitely for my mental and emotional health... and who knows, maybe it'll help a bit physically for me to stay at home and off my feet a little more often.
Anyway. I'm not sure what other life details I'm leaving out. Um. If there's anything you're confused or just curious about, ask! I'll answer whatever I'm comfortable with answering. ;)
*The goth club I frequent - good music, good friends, but loud and crowded sometimes.
** The LARP that Will plays... between weather and scheduling they've been sticking to one-day events rather than weekends. I can tell Will's missed his full weekends of hitting people with foam swords. ;)
