I'm going to my parents' house for Thanksgiving starting tomorrow through Saturday (driving back on Saturday), so consider yourself informed. I can't take my computer with me, so all texturing and modeling work is straight out, though I'll take my sketchpad so any ideas don't get forgotten.
At least I'll be able to work on NaNo on my husband's laptop, because I've done a four-day catchup a few times and pounding out 8k words in a day is a brainkilling experience, plus the writing is shit. Not that the quality is important so much since it's NaNo, but I plan on editing this story after November is over to make it into something actually good, and those 8k word gaps of shit will have to be heavily edited or removed entirely.
So tired.. bed calling.. |

Well, I'm usually horrible at this kind of stuff, but if you reply to this post, I will tell you three things I love about you. Or, I'll try, at any rate :( Also, you should do this on your own journal if you reply so I'm not embarrassed alone. |

I'm weak, achy, swallowing snot, and have the chills. Oae's cold has captured me, but unlike him, I can't call in sick to my appointments. It's going to be a rough couple of weeks.
I should make the DOOM! userpic my default. |

For the first three people that reply to me (and re-post this challenge) - I will send you something made of awesome!
Whatever it is, I promise that I will get it to you in 365 days or less.
The only requirement is that you need to be one of the first three to reply to this, AND post this very same thing on YOUR live journal - spread the love! |

Your Score: The Gnostic You scored 20 Materialism and 70 Phenomenology!
To you, the word "pleroma" doesn't sound like a brand of hair spray. No, you're the Gnostic, and you've embarked upon the path of secret knowledge through gnosis, or total spiritual awareness of the truth behind the veil.
A key to ancient gnostic thought was the demiurge myth, i.e. that the material world was created by a dystheist entity, Ialdoboath, that set itself up as an impostor of the true, all-beneficent God. You probably consider the material world a distraction, if not outright malevolent to your spiritual well-being, and have a hostility to established churches (that they used to kill thousands of you outright probably doesn't help).
Thinkers you may agree with: Karen Armstrong, Elaine Pagels, Plotinus
Thinkers to challenge you: Iraneus, St. Augustine, St. Thomas Aquinas

Go in for a filling, get a root canal!
This is the second time this has happened. What the hell, teeth? They only got it half done today and I have to go in for the rest on Friday. Until then, I have a bottle of vicodin to keep me company. Sweet, sweet vicodin.
Also, I noticed I use my "DOOM!" userpic a lot. |

| |  frustrated | ] |
Once again, finding out something I should have known via a friend's journal. Joy!
It really is frustrating, because I'm very good at hiding how I feel inside. Nobody can tell when I'm ill or don't feel well because I look and act fine on the outside. Sure, you all know I'm not well because I write about it here, but to anyone who doesn't read this, I look perfectly healthy. It's also really hard to have people understand what you're going through, especially when they start thinking you're just making shit up. I always feel very guilty when my problems overwhelm me to the point that I have to mention them, because it probably looks like I'm just making an excuse to duck out of things.
I'll share a few of the things I deal with every day even though most are on here somewhere already, just for completeness of this post.
~
Major Depressive Disorder: I'm not even really sure how long I've had this. When my Psychiatrist asked me when it began, I could only give him a vague "about ten years ago" answer. The problem is, for the longest time I had myself convinced that what I was feeling was normal and I needed to "buck up" and get by because I'm stronger than that! Well, it turns out I'm not!
Nonentrained Sleep-Wake Disorder: Humans have a 25hr day, but the vast majority of people get by with our 24 hour day just fine. This is because their bodies get and respond to triggers about when it's time for sleep and when it's not--snlight, eating schedule, etc. Nonentrained Type is a disorder of this process and is a circadium rhythm sleep disorder. My day hovers around 26-27 hours and, if I let it go unchecked, I willwake up later and later each day, going to bed later and later, so at times I will be asleep during the day and awake at night, or vice-versa, or some crazy morning sleep, evening awake schedule. Of course, I can't let it do this, so I take a boatload of medications to coral it in. This was another one of those "oh I'm fine, I'm a teenager/college student/not working so it's normal for this to happen". I got 2-3hrs of sleep per night for all of my college career and most of highschool. I'm now 26 and still plagued by this problem.
IBS-C: No poop. Much more horrible than it sounds. My grandmother had the same problem (my mom, oddly enough, is exactly the opposite). Diet changes, drinking more water, etc doesn't really work and my colon laughs at fiber like it's a big joke. Oddly enough, this has vastly improved since I started taking Zoloft for my depression. Go SSRI's!
Low Blood Pressure: This doesn't sound so bad, right? Having low blood pressure is a good thing! No, not when it's this low. I get pounding headaches from too much activity, black out if I stand up too fast, and more. I managed to get myself completely off caffeine in January, but now it seems like that's the only thing that'll keep me from getting a blinding migraine when I go out for a walk :(
Chronic Migraines: My nervous system has a very twitchy trigger finger. Eat lunch an hour late? Pain! Get a bad night's sleep? Pain! Sometimes it seems to just be randomly triggered. A migraine is something you just can't convey the horror of to someone who has never had one. "Oh, you have a headache? Just take a couple Tylenol and you'll be fine." No :( |
