Currents of Time

So after yesterday's bit of stress, I completely jinxed myself and today I woke up feeling like crap. It may just be allergies, I am going to pretend it is still just allergies, but, uuugh. My brain feels fuzzy and my neck hurts.

30 Days of Video Games

( Day 14 - Current (or most recent) gaming wallpaper )

My brother has taken to the habit of "spidering" me. ("Spidering" refers to linking someone with any sort of fear of spiders to images of or relating to spiders.) It bothers me less than you'd think, though, because looking at pictures of spiders doesn't really bother me. Sort of them are actually kinda funny. Here are some examples, for the brave (something similar happened to me once it was terrible) and/or curious and/or stupid.

ALLERGY MEDS I HATE YOU AND YOU ARE ONLY MARGINALLY BETTER THAN ENDURING THIS HELL DRUG-FREE.

I like that I can get out of bed in the morning and that my mouth does not itch. I dislike that I am brain-scrambled and woogly. Also they do weird things to my appetite. I am not hungry for hours and then I eat everything I can get my hands on that seems even halfway-edible. It is annoying.

30 Days of Video Games

( Day 11 - Gaming system of choice. )

I really hate these shorter days. There are a few more later. Should I cheat and just post them together with another day, thereby cutting my total Days of Video Games down, or should I just keep posting them one at a time?


...This icon makes me happyyyyy. ♥

So, no, it wasn't just that whatever I am allergic to bloomed early this year. CONFOUND IT ALL.

Local comic shop. Very nice. Very, very useless, if you don't read the big sellers. (In their defense, since they still have comics from Devastation, I can kind of understand why they are reluctant to get in new comics that aren't for special orders, and I'm not interested in a subscription.) So I am finally giving up and ordering the first issue of Last Stand of the Wreckers off of SHADY INTERNET SITES.

They aren't really shady, I just felt like saying that.

its the allergy meds okay leave me alone


Hopefully they arrive sooner rather than later, but for now I'm going to stare at the page and wonder if my story-completionist really, really needs the All Hail Megatron TPB volume 2. (I have 1 and 3, and have read nothing else since, partly because of not having had money for it, partly because of not being able to find it, and partly because the soft reboot [yes, it is, because - see next sentence - you just can't have that much inexplicably different and call it anything else. Other than LAZY AND STUPID, which I kind of doubt is what they're going for, here] kind of annoyed me because I kinda liked the setup they had going. And because that's an appalling number of discrepancies, even for this fandom.)


And next maybe I will pass out in my chair.



...Yeah, that sounds good.



Also, here is an adorable picture my brother linked me to. (I don't know where it comes from originally.)

I've been overwhelmingly exhausted for the last week or so! And my eyes and the roof of my mouth have been really itchy! And maybe I've been a little sneezy, but I am not sure on that one. Last year, I did not figure out - oh! I have seasonal allergies now! CURSE YOU, LIVING IN TOWN! - until late May. Shortly before BotCon, actually. And they'd cleared up by the time I got back from that, because whatever sets me off evidently doesn't exist in that area of CA at that time of year.

So I thought, maybe I'm not sleeping well? Maybe I am getting a cold! But, no, I drugged myself last night and I've been feeling better since then. So. Allergies.

... It is totally not late May! So either I've picked up more allergies in the last eleven months, or things are coming out a little faster. I'm hoping it's just because spring's a little earlier this year, and that it'll pass quickly again (I only needed to use six pills last year, though I endured life without them for a while). Still. Not happy. At least I'm not having to fight the urge to nap all day quite as much? But it's still making a mess of my brain. Hopefully once I'm settled into DRUGGING MYSELF again, that'll start to ease off, as well, 'cause I'm kinda not digging the depressive state I seem to be sinking into again. I don't want to have to wait potentially weeks to stop feeling so drained (physically, mentally, emotionally... take your pick).



Since I've mentioned BotCon, anyway, I'm getting kind of annoyed that they don't have any information up for us yet ('cause, you know, speaking of when it isn't, it is now not early February, late February, or even early March! OR LATE MARCH). No, 1.5 figure previews does not count as information. I know I can approximate the costs based off previous years and all, but I'd like to just have it dealt with, already, and it cannot possibly be this hard to set something up.
