Went to my aunt's; chatted about this and that, had supper, potted succulents in bonsai pots, shivered under a blanket on the couch.

Woops, so much for a diurnal-person bedtime! At least my laundry is somewhat more coherent than it was.

Aiii brain spinning.

Yay awake.

Things you should probably know about [livejournal.com profile] sithjawa and me: we will occasionally shout "BANTAM HENS BANTAM HENS BANTAM HENS" at each other, completely without warning or provocation.

I have been having bad problems with ear-noise for the past day or so. I hope it settles down. (All the little background sounds are really loud, and when MissKat called, I got distortion when she talked. I could hear her just fine, but there was speakerphone-like ringing *around* it.) Am thinking part of it may be related to sleep-dep.

Also, reading Peter Morwood's The Dragon Lord, and unexpected Anne McCaffrey is unexpected!

Maybe I'm just having too much white noise around me. Too much, too loud.

Delays on BART "due to a civil disturbance" does sound ominous. I wonder if I'll hear what happened.

Also, desktop just unbooted itself. D:

Last night's fun: dinner with my aunt, crocheting, carrot cake, Mythbusters, my cousin showing off his Rugged Alaskan Man Beard and the midriff-baring steampunk shirt he's to be wearing to [livejournal.com profile] kestrelct's wedding today.

My ear-noise seems to be doing better. So far today: 2 cups of coffee. There was a whole little container of it that I made; I'll see if I want some later on. Didn't get enough sleep to want to drive in traffic or face up to crowds. Aunt may be Up for Stuff later. (So, I, like, went to bed at 3, turned off the light at 4, and then at 6:30, pop pop, there I was awake; listening to my cravings, apparently coffee (not soda, but coffee, which I don't have that often) was on the list. So here I am awake.) Meanwhile, I just discovered that my cellphone's Driving Mode is supposed to recite any calling number aloud to me, which is apparently just what I wanted for when I am In Bed, Dammit, with my headset, but my phone is on the other side of the room.

I was going to say something but I forgot what it was.
Oh! I remembered. When I eventually get published (and it is on the List, remember!) I may be one of those Crazy Cranky Authors who Has Weird Thoughts on Fanfiction.
My particular Crazy Position on Fanfiction is likely to be "Sure, write all you want, but IT'S ALL AU. ALL OF IT."

I might be awake. Then again, I might not. I hate my sleep schedule.

I seem to be awake yet again. It's also possible (she says after having read half the internet) that the head-buzzing of a few days ago, which did resemble high-blood-pressure side effects, was in fact due to a drug interaction between St. John's Wort and a too-ripe avocado.

AFAIK, people used to think that SJW worked as an MAOI, but current research suggests that it has minimal MAOI action at standard doses, so you shouldn't have to worry about food interactions.

(Which is good, because the list of things you can't eat when you're on an MAOI is tragic.)

This was the civil disturbance.

"Sure, write all you want, but IT'S ALL AU. ALL OF IT."

That...does not seem to be a Crazy Position. It seems quite reasonable, really. Of course all fanfic is AU, from the point of the person writing the canon. Hell, I imagine most authors have unwritten AUs of their own for their books - I certainly would!

Your cousin is also highly disturbing. Why does your family like disturbing links? :P
