I told myself that I would try to make more of an effort to post on DW, so here goes.
I woke up this morning at 8:30am, and it felt absolutely luxurious. I don't know if that's a product of me getting older, but damn. I sincerely miss the days when I could sleep until noon. Of course, these days I have a cat who harasses me if I don't feed her and give her attention when she decides she needs it, so perhaps she's another reason.
Also, having gone from being unemployed to 15ish hours a week to 35+ now that I'm a supervisor, I'm shocked at how much energy it takes for me just to exist. I get home, and all I want to do is watch television, read fic, or sleep. I feel like I have no energy for creative projects, and that kills me. For the past couple of years, I feel like my writing output has been about 1,000 words a year, which is ridic. That doesn't count everything that isn't finished (like my 13k Thor/Loki fic, or my 50k SPN fic omg that should have been finished FIVE YEARS AGO.)
That's enough about writing, because damn, I'm depressed about that.
In other interesting news, I got my hair cut, which was badly needed, so now it's asymmetrical and short-layered in the back, and I went to Memphis with![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
dungeonmarm this weekend! We went to the Pink Palace Family of Museums on Friday, and then after his hair cut (he has really curly hair, so he's been going to a Deva trained specialist named Melody, and she's really cool) we went to the Memphis Zoo. I hadn't been to the zoo in I don't even know how long. But we spent about five hours there before we drove home. I learned that Dominos actually makes a pretty good veggie sub, and that there is a Chinese-fusion place near the Memphis Zoo called Mulan's which had really, really good veggie lo mein. And the best rice. Man, I'm having a rice craving.
I took tons of pictures on my phone, though, so if you guys want to see any museum things or zoo animals, just let me know!
I did not, however, get any keychains. There weren't any that appealed to me, and that made me very angsty. There's always next time.
