I've been quiet. Oops.

Hmmm... well, let's see. I've been a whirlwind of activity for someone with no real job. I managed to bring home well over $100 this past week in eBay sales; not bad for the first wave of auctions. I still haven't sold most of what I consider to be the cooler clothes I'm listing - I have no idea what's WRONG with these people. I mean, damn! I even model the clothes in the silliest and most fun ways possible. Cheap bastards. [hee!]

I've been spending huge amounts of time at WNRN, filling in for people, doing the Music Staff thing, helping Tiny DJ with office work, improving my Mike voice... [sometimes I think I missed my calling as an impersonator. I can imitate so many people's speech! I'm a freak like that.] Saturday I did a 3 hour Modern Rock shift, which was a bit harder than I would have liked, though by the end I had it all down just fine. I wasn't used to the dayparts, mostly, and Mike was there hanging acoustic tiles behind me, which made me nervous. At least I finally told him that he puts me on edge when he's hovering around the studio, and he seemed to take it well. I never know if he's going to start yelling or not, you know.
What else... did the usual stuff, The Dawning, SubShock, crap crap crap... my life is way busy. It is crazy. There are so many things I want to do that I can't seem to fit in... I want very badly to start writing stories again - I have three different storylines that I want to condense into one cohesive whole - but I need a full day to sit down and immerse myself. I guess I can put some time aside next week to do that. I need to weed the yard and work on the garden area in the back... today would have been perfect, since it is cool and breezy, but I scheduled myself to go shop with the Tiny DJ [who I love hanging out with, she's too much fun]... and I need to go out and get more things to sell on eBay anyway, so I guess this is a good thing. But - this *would* have been the perfect day. Maybe I'll be lucky and tomorrow will be gorgeous - oh hell, I can't tomorrow, I'm scheduled for my pampering, "I'm not working Food Service anymore" manicure at Oasis. I'm really looking forward to that - Oasis is a day spa that uses all this aromatherapy goodness - their services are well regarded in Cville, and this is a treat for me. I'm hoping I love it enough that I can incorporate it into a pampering ritual, rewarded when I make a certain number of sales each month or something like that. Rev Soup was terribly harsh to my hands, so I'm looking forward to a bit of repair.
I also spent some time these past few nights working on redesigning xiane.org. It isn't finished yet, but I'm on the way. I was going to incorporate a chromeless window flow, but I just don't feel it in the current design style right now. I'll stick to some basic javascript hoo-ha and [hopefully] a good sense of artistry. Yeah.
Oh, and I've been having a hard time going to sleep at night, and consequently, waking up in the morning. No, I haven't been drinking that much coffee. I tend to get really wound up at night anyway, and pair that with a natural nocturnal inclination, a lot of bad dreams, and tons of crap on my mind... well, you get the perfect recipe for insomnia. I need to incorporate a strong workout into my daily routine or something, to wear me out and defuse my stress levels. Besides, I don't want a giant desk-butt. I sit here an awful lot these days!
Okay, I need to get some crap done before Tiny DJ gets here. I'll try and be more prompt with my updates. Really.
