I blame malign influences

[incandescens]

Feeling unduly tired this evening. Some people might put this down to a day's work, hauling a couple of bags of cloth (mostly shirt fabric) home after work and sorting them, or spending a happy while with a (new) rotary cutter and cutting board turning oddly shaped bits of fabric into usable squares/strips, but personally I blame the malign influence of strange and abstruse phenomena.

There are a lot of them around, I hear.

I also got some rather nice fabric which I suspect is usually slated for waistcoat or jacket linings. I wonder what size is appropriate for a soft toy snake.

Missed being chased round Leeds by zombies last week. I was vaguely aware that it had been going on, but didn't want to go on my own, and attempts to form a team with coworkers met with a sad lack of enthusiasm from coworkers. Alas. Ah well, it was apparently here last year too, so will probably be back next year if I really feel like it.

I subscribe to the Malign Influences Theory, myself, as well.

*wishes the ibuprofen would cut in*

Probably a bit late now for me to say it, but I hope that it did cut in . . .

At the very end of the night, around midnight, yah. Then it tried to come back today, but I had a chiropractic appointment today and while it tried to whine at me a little on the way home afterwards, it seems to have faded without recourse to ibuprofen. Crossing fingers!

*hugs*

It seems a lot of people are feeling unwell (myself included - I spent most of our little vacation trip this weekend in bed in the hotel while my hubby reluctantly went out alone and saw the sights we had pre-paid tickets for.) And those who don't feel ill seem ill at ease. I have a dear friend who does astrological charts and is genuinely rather psychic - she was telling me this afternoon that she's been feeling very off-kilter and that she has a sense of some kind off ill wind brewing (she said it much more elegantly than that, though!) She also mentioned that apparently there has been a unusual widespread amount of small earthquakes here in North America in the past few days, including a small one in the same place here in Virginia where the large one was last August (which badly shook her and me both, even though we live almost 200 miles apart.

Here's hoping whatever it is, it resolves soon, without any major catastrophes befalling anyone... I certainly am more than ready to start feeling a little bit better and would truly love to have a bit more energy (or ANY energy!)

Fingers crossed that we all feel better soon, then, and that there aren't any catastrophes in the meantime.
