...'Cept a cold. My head is tired and my body is too. Came down with this sucka on Friday and had a busy weekend in spite of it. Helped my boss move, had dinner out, watched a movie, cleaned house, went to Sunday lunch with the family, ran errands, etc. etc. Oof. To top it all off, I finally disengaged my childhood belongings from my parents' house and took all that I could find back to our apartment. I was inspired by others posting about doing the same, so I took the whole closet-load home and pillaged through it, sparing only what I couldn't bear to part with. Rupert helped too. (Actually, he only got as far as destroying an ugly plastic flower, but that's all I expect a fat kitty to do.)

Cleaning up all this stuff is part of the self-reorganization (a bit of Spring Cleaning) I'm doing right now, in addition to filing some OR State back taxes and attempting to begin meditating and writing a more introspective paper journal. I guess I'm trying to put "me" back on my daily "to do" list. Hm, that sounds wrong.

I'm dead tired, got a stuffy head, and still have to shelve the rest of the dusty books I pulled from boxes. I got nothin' else to say, so enjoy this pretty picture of the Andromeda Glacier from Banff, Canada. Someday I'll finish editing the rest of those photos and stack them in my gallery when it's working again. Back on the blogging bandwagon soon.

Liberated from parents! Yay!

At least now you won't have to deal with your mom threatening to throw it all out every time you call (or maybe *your* mom didn't do that). Ryan and I are going to have to do some major reorganization of our tiny apartment once we get all the furniture from my folks' place.. NOT looking forward to that.

What's up with your gallery?

you seem to get sick a lot. you seem to eat right, get exercise and sleep, keep stress low as possible, get love / human contact, all the right stuff... i found once i made a conscious effort to get those in my life i never (knock on wood) hardly ever get sick..... i wonder if i'm just lucky.

No, I don't get sick a lot... or at least I didn't used to. For many years while I was in college, I caught one, maybe two minor bugs a year. I think it's all the stress I've been going through since my move up here. Part of the side effects of being anxious is constant exhaustion. Or, it could be that I'm in a 2-foot radius of 4 other people in my office and when they get sick, I'm in for it too!

Thinking back, I've only had one major illness this year-- in November. This cold and the one other I picked up were extremely light. I'm healthy again already, so this was something quite minor! :)
