I do not have any photograph of my sister as an adult woman.

I need to come up for air more often than I do

This new bloody hobby of mine is taking over the whole of me

I usually have CSI type dreams where Dean, Barb and I are solving crimes.

I tend to have dreams with complex plots, but in my case it is action/adventure/fantasy rather than crime. I would like to have crime dreams, with a case to unpick. That sounds splendid.

I am having that 'squeezing the last bit of toothpaste out of the tube' struggle with verbalisation at the moment.

I used to type replies to people's posts and then panic and delete them and sit staring at the empty text box thinking, what would people say. Trying to learn to be kind.

culinary delights

I wouldn't go that far. But the Japanese tutor who held up a potato and was politely outraged when I didn't know what it was would surely be proud of me.

Are there any foods you like to hear about? I will try to cook them so I can describe them.

I was going to do kofta tonight but I ended up eating a croissant instead.

I have a history of people giving up on me in Late January.

I'm a little jealous - my dreams seem to fragmented to solve anything :)

I am not literally high-functioning at least since above 10 years despite good intellect and functional language.

Tired of Waiting For You, by The Kinks is my favourite song.

That's actually good to know.

I don't think I fret over projects like this valentines day project for FF62.
But if I do, I try to make it positive. That can be difficult when I have next to zero experience or knowledge about the thing I need to do the project. (3D Printing and object design from scratch using the tools I know nothing about.) So it is initially stressful. But I have something to show, despite the hundreds of ways I know how to effectively procrastinate. It's 2:31 PM CST (UTC-6) and I am about to start what I planned to start at 9:00 AM (same time zone). I have to keep it in mind that this sort of thing always works out. Except for that one time for ancient art history. That was a tailspin in the ground causing half of Springfield to burst into flames. Refrigerators, toothpicks, books, a glass of water, in Springfield, a mere tap will create a mushroom cloud explosion.

I'm tired of playing Cockney Rebel. I'm afraid that Germany has won me over again. That was a quick recovery. I have a pretty cool avatar for Music Mondays, though.

Just because I've been hurt doesn't mean I get angry and rebel. I can get through without becoming intense.
