I'm feeling a little better now.
I'm feeling very lazy right at the moment. I didn't do squat over the weekend -- went to the grocery store, played Playstation (Diablo -- I died messily over and over and over... lots of gory "AAAAAAAIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! *gurgle*" sound effects reverberating through the house), straightened the house, played Playstation ("AAAAAAAIIIIIEEEEEEEE!!!! *gurgle*), slept, Playstation (AAAAAAAIIIIIEEEEEEEE!!!!!"), etc...
So you'd think I'd have woken up all energetic and ready to take on the day this morning, right? Ha. I think recent stress has decided to ambush me. I woke up with a stomachache, then felt faint and wobbly all morning, until the blinding headache hit. I feel better now, though, so I won't whine anymore.
The stressful stuff also seems to be easing -- thanks to all of you who send nice emails to cheer me up (especially Nancy -- that really was one of the nicest emails I've ever gotten, thank you). I still don't really want to discuss it here -- suffice it to say, the first year of marriage really is the hardest. It's been weird and tense and not very happy around our house, but it's better now. Hopefully it will continue to improve.
Barry brought home a copy of "You Don't Know Jack" for the iBook today, and I'm hooked. I suck at it, of course -- all that's missing is the "AAAAAAIIIIEEEEEE!!!! *gurgle." I suck so bad the annoying announcer-guy yells at me. He insults me for being so damn dumb. It's pathetic. But fun, really fun. So what if my final score is usually around -16,250...
