Superlative day

[lizblackdog]

What with one thing and another, I am getting either no sleep, or sleeping like a zombie at the stupidest times, so that this afternoon's pet food delivery woke me, and I had to scurry to put my teeth in while the nice blonde who brings me dead mice and green tripe languished on the doorstep. Then after she left, I put my hand to my neck and felt... something. I looked in the mirror and found myself covered with dried melted chocolate from chin to clavicle. It was only one small piece that had escaped from my bedtime nibble stash, but oh, how it had spread. I looked like I'd been mud wrestling. That would be an immensely fun thing to do with... never mind.

I'm getting past my slump. You can tell because I am posting, I am no longer invisible on AIM, I hoovered last night (actually, at 10am this morning, but I hadn't gone to bed yet) and I am horny almost past the point of endurance. Unfortunately, the yeast infection that I only just got shot of has joined forces with The Athlete's Foot That Wouldn't Die and attacked me with tinea cruris. It's minor. It's treatable. It's responding to antifungal cream and tea tree oil. But I still feel like Typhoid Mary and the itch has to be felt to be believed. I don't normally scratch my crotch maniacally in public, but it's actually impossible not to.

This, too, shall pass. Soon. Please.

Sounds like my sleeping pattern there. I hate it. Bleh.

Yeah. Most of it is my own fault, but not all - there have been a few nights lately where I lie down and just cannot sleep. And I'm too old now to do that and not fall asleep in the afternoon. And then it all just goes haywire. My circadian rhythm doesn't know whether it's bum or breakfast time right now.

Last night I wondered what the hell I was doing wide awake at 2 am. I had fallen asleep around 10.30 pm and then when I woke up to go to the loo I couldn't go back to sleep again. And it's not because someone was stealing the duvet or snoring or trying to elbow me or anything. I was just awake. It took two bloody hours to go back to sleep again (one hour of reading) and in the morning I woke up with a splitting headache. That's the worst thing - the headache I've been having the past days because of my lack of sleep. *sigh* The whole day is ruined by it all. Because I'm not in a creative spell right now (I sure could need one of those creative spells right now though) I can't work late or all night either and use this to my advantage. Oh well. I only need to be completely done by May 22^nd. No stress. No stress at all.

[lizblackdog.livejournal.com]

James, dear, linoleum gives you dirty visions.

Oh, speaking of dirty visions, did you ever read the Tribbles parody?

Of course you caught the bit at the end that made me think of you ;-)

I sympathize with the itchiness. My first outbreak was insane. I had to wear heavy socks on my hands when I slept, otherwise I scratched in my sleep so bad, I actually created sores. It was near madness if I started scratching because I honestly could not stop.
And I was like that for a month.

So, yeah. All I can recommend is oatmeal baths, and anti-itch cream and heavy socks or ovenmitts for your hands. And I'll send you lots of good thoughts.

Yes. It burns, it burns usss, preciouss!

This morning I dug out my epilator and ripped most of my pubic hair out by its roots. That has helped a lot, too.

This is me not going anywhere near this conversation

[lizblackdog.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I'm sorry. I am so pissed off with my bits right now.

"A hairdryer is useful if you have hairy groins."

Multiple groins?

Yeast infections are the absolute worst, so you have my sympathies.

TMI Tip: Once the cream kicks in, masturbation really helps. You get to rub yourself like crazy and there's an extra pay-off at the end.

I know! It's the one consolation I have in all this XD
