Curiosity!

How was I not earlier aware of the fact that NASA was launching another Mars probe? Today? At ten o'clock Pacific Time? Launch and other poorly organized information at the NASA site. Basic mission info on Wikipedia.

Today is an Art Day and I'm very much looking forward to it! I think I might cover some boxes, or perhaps work on a big canvas project that I've been putting off for way too long.

On Tuesday, I forgot about my acupuncture appointment. My appointments are usually on Thursdays, and of course this Thursday acupuncture wasn't happening, so I'd scheduled for Tuesday and then forgot. I'm already having some swelling issues. It's going to be a long week until my appointment on December 1.

Looks like it was ten o'clock Eastern Time, not Pacific Time. :(

This makes me very happy! The colonization of Mars (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/space/8091965/Nasa-unveils-bold-plans-to-send-humans-one-way-to-Mars-to-colonise-planet.html) is still a go? I had lost hope. I only regret that I'm not young enough or educated enough to be considered :)

Happy Art Day!
I'm bloated like a pumpkin, too, guess I'd better get out some dresses for the week.

i think i don't know the purpose of acupuncture. i never considered it because of the whole penetration with many needles thing. dude. freaks my shit out.

Hurray for art days!

I'm becoming convinced that (for some people) acupuncture can help just about any physical ailment. It helps me so much with my inflammatory and autoimmune issues.

They really don't stick the needles in very far at all. Sometimes I don't even feel them. Although sometimes, especially if something is really out of whack/unhealthy, some of those trigger points can be real zingers.
