day one

the list of items i've been meaning to post about has piled up so high, i'm not even sure what's at the bottom anymore. i mean, i never even posted about hawaii, and that was in september! i think the best way to conquer it (along with the general wall i keep hitting every time i log on to LJ) is to once again tackle Post Every Day This Week. i need that extra motivation to push past the exhaustion and malaise at the end of every work day when i zombify in front of the telly.

i have nothing exciting prepared for today, but i can tell you that last thursday night a spider (i presume) bit me on my cheek. and while i haven't gone full-on elephant man, i am still sporting a swollen bloom beneath my left eye that is both tender and itchy (and not one spidey-sense to speak of yet! what a rip). what does one do for spider bites? is there anything other than wait it out? bahhhh. :*(

aside from tolerating my deformed face, i spent saturday at the park for my nephew's birthday, saw the film melancholia (which i didn't necessarily love, but i'm still thinking about it, so), and then sunday was spent gardening at the shop (out with the dead, in with the pansies) before plunking down on the couch for six hours. and now it's back to work for me, because we are an evil company that doesn't take today off.

hey, flisters, hey.
