jadesfire: Bright yellow flower (SGA - McKay sleeping)
[personal profile] jadesfire
There are many things I want to do, including, but not limited to, replying to the 'fannish drift' post (it never ceases to amaze me that other people want to talk about the things I want to talk about. Spooky), writing up some recipes for [livejournal.com profile] ricecakefree, and reading some of the things on my 'unread' tag on delicious. Since I'm rather knackered, this is instead going to be a short 'how I was awesome/how are you awesome' post, then I'm going to bed.

Today I was awesome because I went to and stayed at my Slimming World group. Not only had I lost weight, I had a good time \o/ Every week, this is *hard* for me, but I keep plugging away at it, and hopefully it will get easier with time.

What about you guys? Conquer any mountains today?

Oh, and I managed to pick up a copy of Neil Gaiman's 'Stardust' for 50p. Result!

That is most definitely awesome! Go you! *twirls you*

Also, bargain book \o/

Today I was awesome because I didn't punch manager when she was being an arse broke the 2000 words marker! That's 10% of my Big Bang story written, and yeah, it's not perfect, but it's down on paper (well, y'know, a computer screen) and that is progress, damnit. I'll worry about editing once I'm nearer the end. For now, I just need to write.

*twirls* It's a hard slog at the moment, but I'm sticking with it.

Woot! That's awesome going, hon - we'll worry about editing later, definitely. Keep up the good work :D

Yay, well done you!

Today I was awesome because I finally got around to buying new windscreen wipers for my car. I also got some homework done.

Doesn't sound like much fun, so definitely awesome for getting that done :)

Oh, very awesome, especially sticking with your Slimming World group and finding the book. Those are great accomplishments.

I managed, despite the world's longest running head cold, to clean my house, run a few errands and make chocolate chip cookie bars.

It's so weird how I *never* want to go to SW, but *always* love it when I get there. You'd think it would have worn off by now...

*passes tissues* Trying to get things done when you're sick is hard - yay you :)

Yay for you and slimming world. And the book thing is beyond awesome!

I was awesome as I managed to sort out the wireless connection at home so Victoria could see it.

I was really chuffed with the book! It's in large print, but that actually made it easier to read on a rattley old bus :)

Trying to make computers talk to each other is worse than trying to get sulky teenagers to talk to each other - definitely a major achievement :D

I got out a whip and a chair (okay, my paints and my f-list) and tamed the Iris Pond commission today, so I feel Very Accomplished Indeed.

It's not finished, but it's getting there, and the client is thrilled with the update photos. So. Tonight I am very very happy.

Late awesome! Or early, maybe? Hope you don't mind. ♥

Today I spoke up in class, even though I didn't have to. \o/ So I had actual conversations in Japanese. And then I wrote a couple of mails to my Keitai Guy - also in Japanese! I also made another impromptu weird-cheap supper, which turned out delicious. And I posted a fic! (Which is something I usually only do a couple of times a year, so even though it's short, I think it's rather awesome.) And then I went to a comm and linked to my fic, even though I usually find self-promotion damn near impossible...

Yay! I was feeling kind of annoyed with myself about all the the things I haven't done today, but looking at it like this, I guess I've been pretty good. *g*
