I'm making something of this day off

_luaineach posted this article about stomach bacteria having an affect on brain chemistry and behavior. Just one more note of encouragement for me to get my adrenal issues under control, since out-of-whack cortisol levels inhibit healthy gut flora--and vice versa.

I Must Chill. And take my probiotics.

I went out with mckitterick and his buddies last night. I shoulda just kept it to a dinner engagement. I was bored and frustrated for the two hours I stuck it out at their bar. It was loud and I couldn't hear any conversations, there was a super annoying girl who joined the group while we were there, and the drinks were expensive and awful. No more attempts to hang with the guys at Harbour Lights for me. I've tried and tried and tried, and I just hate it there. I always wind up leaving with a bitter taste in my mouth--and not just from that rubbing alcohol they pour behind the bar.

I kinda feel like I wasted a lot of yesterday. I got a lot done--laundry, grocery shopping--but it wasn't very fulfilling. None of that today!

Today I'm going to sew some talisman/tarot card bags for otterdancing to sell at Heartland festival over Memorial Day weekend. I'm also going to give her the short bloomers that didn't sell at Wild Man Vintage. I'm crossing my fingers for making a spot of cash from that to help pay for my Memorial Day weekend at ConQuesT.
