Happy birthday! I hope it is/has been lovely, and may your following year be full of growth and wonder <3. A prompt that might be fun: magic books ^_^

Thanks for the birthday wishes and the prompt, @vazzle!! I told you folks that I’d get to the birthday prompts . . . and I am slowly but surely.

Have to say that this has been one of my fave prompts so far! Love my book-moths!!

Me: I've got art block, what should I do? Friend: How about paint handprints? Me: Yes, good, excellent! Hmm, but it's missing something... Ah, yes, time to make it disturbing!

Sometimes I just want to talk about some of the darkest things with someone, just as people crave casual, friendly conversations over their favorite drink. I enjoy all sorts of conversations, but these are by far the rarest, and I think it would just be nice to talk with someone about such things without reserve.

slept way later than I should have

no appetite. I did eat but it didn't taste good and I don't like forcing myself to eat when I'm not hungry because I'm afraid I'll start overriding my hunger cues.

My ankles are both really sore from tensing up yesterday.

shins feel really bruised.

running yesterday was a dumb dumb dumb idea. I knew I was lightly injured from running in bad shoes I should have rested now I'm in pain.

baby blanket is underway for our pending nephew. It's working up fast but my hands are getting whiny and it's upsetting me that I have to stop.

Not only did that steak go bad too fast but our bread molded. So grocery run tonight.

Even though I've been highly productive in the 3.5 hours I've been up I feel lazy and like a failure.

I know I'm not but it's how I feel.

I just want to knit and jam to music and crochet but my body won't let me.

I hope you all are having a better day than I am. 

Congrats Vaz on the acceptance letter from IU.Go Big Ten!

Self respect

  all found here

  No where in that does it say anything about showing skin or dressing a certain way.

  I get really frustrated when I see people get hate for posting pictures of their bodies or their progress and being told to "have more self respect." because they are partially nude. 

  Character, conduct, dignity, integrity....they should have no ties to a persons body. Those should be defined by their actions.

I want to go out for coffee and talk about intellectual things and then randomly belly dance on top of the coffee table with you so then everyone can appreciate our wonderfulness.

Yes.  Yesyesyesyes.  You are already one of my favorite people, this needs to be a real thing that happens at some point.
