You are a winner
My first day back at CrossFit in a week and a half, and with two faire weekends in between? Was really hard. I did not finish the WOD in the allowed twenty minutes. I feel tired and weak. I will get better, but right now I just feel beat up.
Saturday's weather was amazing and perfect and so very welcome after last weekend's heat and humidity. I was still pretty low energy, though. Thank goodness for an energetic audience and spectacular drumming.
I didn't go out at all on Sunday and it was awesome. Instead, I stayed home and got almost everything done that I wanted. Almost is close enough during faire season--I'll take it! Late afternoon I started getting lower abdominal pains that continued into the evening. I woke up around 2am with the pain having migrated up to my stomach. It was mostly gone by the time I woke up for CrossFit, but my whole midsection still feels a little delicate--like something's not quite happy in there. The fact that it traveled up my G.I. tract is kind of weird. Maybe it's some reaction to the last of the antibiotics (which I finished yesterday). I resumed taking probiotics today, with a double dose of 'em this morning. Perhaps that will even things out in there.
In Really Super Exciting News: the Archive of Own Own fanworks website hosted a membership give-away on their Tumblr last week and I got one! The squee was nigh-uncontainable since the normal wait time for an invite is something like eighteen months. Wheee! I am debating whether to register under the Chernobyl Red handle or sign up with Clever Manka, which is a handle I've considered adopting for a few years. I have an emotional attachment to Chernobyl Red because it was my first internet handle (back in 1989), but Clever Manka is...well, less based on a comic book character that nobody's ever heard of. DECISIONS. Any thoughts?

For those wishing to indulge you can always go to Chateau Avalon or Great Wolf Lodge. But I would rather you spend that money tipping the performers at the faire--just sayin'. :-)

What with Dean's back problems, I don't want to just drive up, go walk the faire all day, then drive back home-NOT FUN.
Besides, it seems like every time we get up into that part of Kansas, we have to IMMEDIATELY COME HOME, for some darn reason (or normally, just because!).
