Ho Hum.

Thanks so much for the gorgeous moonstone ring!!! You know who you are... I didn't know if you'd want it publicized so I'll leave you anonymous. You are far too kind. <3


And Dressage Woman, thanks for your comment. For some reason, Blogger won't let me comment on your blog. :(


*~*~*~**~*~*~**~*
It is common practise among attorneys (and probably lots of other professionals) to dictate letters and pleadings and court notices and the like onto little tapes, so that their secretaries can play those little tapes back on a machine and type out everything their bosses dictated. This comprises most of my day at work. It's pretty easy stuff, but I must say that it's highly unpleasant when my boss--in the middle of his dictation--decides to cough or clear his throat very loudly. I listen to those tapes on headphones, and that cough is usually quite a bit louder than the speech. It's really not cool when I'm in the middle of typing a letter and suddenly get my eardrum blown out by my boss's coughing fit. 


I have successfully fasted for 48 hours. Nothing but coffee, tea, and emergency V8 has entered my stomach. I have also not exercised, as it would probably be unwise to burn 500+ calories on the treadmill while taking in less than 200. The anxiety of Not Exercising really sucks. I need to keep telling myself that my life will not be ruined because I did not go on the treadmill 2 days in a row. I am not going to gain 20 pounds overnight from not exercising. 


The fast shall continue until Mum notices and starts getting suspicious. So far I've managed to get out of dinner yesterday and today, but I doubt it will last much longer.


I found something fun under my bed yesterday:

It's a colour-your-own tarot deck. Now I most certainly do not have the patience or artistic skills to sit down and colour 78 tarot cards, so I thought perhaps I should dole them out amongst like-minded individuals. Anyone want a tarot card?? I thought I'd maybe start each one with something--like colour in a section, or start collaging--and then send it to one of you lovely ladies. You could colour and decorate it and then we would each have a piece of the deck; perhaps even exchange finished cards once they're done? Or maybe play with it for a week or so, and then pass it on to someone else? Idk, I thought it seemed like a cute idea. Let me know if you're interested, and what card you'd like!

Not much else to report. Life has been unnaturally quiet since the holidays ended. It's making me kind of jumpy, actually. My life is rarely this calm--there must be a natural disaster or plague outbreak headed my way......
