Sep. 19th, 2023 02:30 amDear potatoes,
Thank you for being delicious and helping me through this difficult time of crampiness and headaches. Ooh. Ahh.
So. My original plan for the weekend was to put up more Halloween. Only when I got home I didn't, for whatever reason. Oh! Yeah, that's right. I got my flu shot about two hours before the end of my shift and by the time I got home, I was tired and my arm decided to hurt about the same time I got out of the car. Fun. Then I timed my sleep vs caffeine wrong and well, you were there for that.
Today I debated it, but decided I'd count putting batteries in my witch lantern (and the one that's outside) and try to ignore the annoyance at half my strand of purple lights giving up the ghost. Boooooooo. Instead, I thought I'd finally tackle organizing my nail polishes.
Yeah, no. It started off much better than expected. A lot of me reminiscing over various bottles and colors and noting how often I'd duplicated drugstore polishes (not as often as you might think and I suspect those were gifts from a coworker who died a few years ago) and a huge chunk of that time was me being very, very confused as to where all my WnW polishes were, beyond the Fergie ones.
And then I hit the big containers and immediately slammed into the wall I'd feared would happen. I found polishes that belonged in the other two containers (dammit!), realized at least one of them was not destined to live with its brand anyway and then trying to figure out which polishes had been swatched drove me to madness because I swear on all that's holy that some of the polishes I couldn't find on my spreadsheet were absolutely swatched, so either Google hiccuped (likely) or I've lost my mind (equally likely) and at this point I just couldn't do it anymore. Sooooooo... in terms of getting my stuff sorted, I failed hardcore. In terms of appreciating my older polishes? Solid win.
Depending on my headache and nap situation, I may try to work on figuring out the swatch situation again, and resume work on that. I may also decide to hell with it for now, head to the bookcase for my Readalong books, and then look at old Halloween pics to decide what I want to do this year since the cat has decided her greatest joy in life is hopping up on all surfaces and knocking shit over.
Future!me- take the bigger pieces off the second tower and put them on the headboard. They're big enough that she can't knock them over as easily.
Oh, and I finished a book I got from the LT early reviewers and I was so disappointed. So. Disappointed.
