Being Emo

[batskeets]

I think I'm going to be Tired Emo skeets all week. All I feel like doing is curling up in warm blankets and sleeping. Fortunately, I don't have a lot of plans until the weekend, so I have license to be chill.

I'm eating very sparingly this week, which is HARD, because there's friggin' candy EVERYWHERE. But, I'm doing it. No sodium, few carbs, not much fat and it's all non-animal fat. It actually feels pretty good to not eat sugar and refined flours, because I haven't had much luck staying away from them since... probably PAX? Maybe after a week of this, I won't keep running back to that garbage all the time. The lack of carbs is definitely making it tough to train, though. I'm still debating whether or not I should lift today, or just go to wushu and call it good.

In other news, Nina fitted me for my costume on Sunday, and I got to take it home! It turned out so freakin' awesome. I also picked up the necessary Manic Panic to purple-ize my hair for it, and I'll get the final costume component from spiralshannon hopefully on Wednesday. THIS IS SO COOL, YOU GUYS. I am excited.

After I got back from there, we went to Amy's concert, and it was really nice. We were late, so we had to listen to most of the first piece from the hallway, but they did a cool Brahms piece after intermission. Then Travis offered to make his awesome chili, so we went to their place to hang out, eat chili, and watch C.H.U.D.

Vendor event on Saturday went fine. Attendance wasn't as stellar as everyone hoped, but we still met some great folks, got great comments on our art prints, and sold a couple of them, too. Boy's not-so-secretly hoping to do well in the art photography realm, so that was encouraging. And at least one of the vendors wants to work with us on a new headshot.

Friday night was lovely, too. matrixleap pulled a whole gaggle of Doomies together for a relaxing evening of Apples to Apples. I was only expecting a couple other people, so it was a nice surprise! It was really good to see everyone, it's been way too long. I'm looking forward to the Halloween Party on Saturday even more now.

Anyhoo, I think I may be keeping my head down this week and not post much. I'm a bit out of juice, both physically and emotionally. But I *am* reading your posts. :)

Oh yeah, it's way easier to avoid snacking on unhealthy things if you get all your meals in. I used to skip breakfast a lot, and I would always end up buying some sugary fancy-coffee and a giant pastry before lunchtime.
