All You Need Is Love....

I managed to get up at a reasonable hour today! Technically I woke up at 8:30, but I realized that I'd done all the dishes last night, and scrubbed the counters and stove, so I could afford to doze a bit in bed for a while. Now I'm up, I've got my protein shake, I took my vitamins, and I am feeling like a real human being.

We realized yesterday that my sudden breakdown, weird mood, and subsequent panic attacks through the day are because like the idiot I am, I've been forgetting my vitamins. I take vitamins mostly for the mental and emotional boost, and it's been weeks since I took my B-complex or anything else. So [livejournal.com profile] nijawial is going to draw me a little picture to tape to the mirror to remind me every morning to take them. :D

I had no idea so many of you had Facebooks! :D I'm still figuring out the site, but so far I'm liking it.

And thank you to everyone who commented on that meme. Reading all of that really, really did make me feel better. I have some amazing friends, and I am grateful for each and every one of you. I don't know what I'd do without my Flist.

We went with [livejournal.com profile] enigmablade and [livejournal.com profile] summoneddestiny yesterday to look at fish tanks, and were killed with cute by the dwarf hamsters. I fear we may end up giving one of the little buggers a home. We do have the big Habitrail cage that Hank and Dean have long grown out of - they live in a giant aquarium now, and are much happier with all that space. And plenty of shavings, food, toys etc....

Today on the schedule is:

Work out
Clean living room
Do laundry
Work on fic
RP in between

Everyone's posted for, actually, and my girls are on the move to hook up with their respective companions for the night. :D

I think it is still your turn for Myre in CU...unless that thread has ended without me knowing it.

God, the cute yesterday reached deadly levels! We should have gotten pictures or something. I am almost tempted to walk to that pet store just to see what they have now... x_x

I'm bad at remembering medications too.

I'm really glad you're feeling better. I need to work on fic too.

Dwarf hamsters are adorable.

I bought a dwarf hamster once that turned out to be pregnant, and the baby dwarf hamsters were seriously the cutest thing I've ever seen!

I didn't have a Facebook, but I joined it just to add you, and my co-author. Maybe I'll meet someone else on there. ;)

I'm still figuring it out too. It's nothing like LiveJournal, or what I saw of MySpace (which was a long time ago, I admit. I never really grew to like it.)

I had a hamster, a long time ago. Not a dwarf, but a regular one. He died, but it wasn't because of his lifespan. He got bitten by a mosquito and came down with something he didn't recover from (this was in Puerto Rico, so the mosquitoes are even more dangerous than usual!). I haven't had another one since. What about guinea pigs? Not that I'm suggesting one, but what do you think of them? I've always wondered what it would be like to own one.
