Emotional Yin/Yang

itsallovernowThings that make me happy today:
Dancing last night went really well, despite the fact that my CD didn't work and I had to do a Hail Mary effort to get music. Someone said I looked like a tall fairy, which cracks me up. If I'd heard that when I was dancing, I'd have lost it. Large parts of the bellydancing community are very new age and touchy and feely and while very nice and enthusiastic, they're a little much for me. Mostly, what I Iooked like was pale.
I have new tight, red corduroy pants on. They look hot, and I love them and have always wanted a pair of red pants. (And yes, the real reason that I can't afford to go to ScaperCon is because I spend to much money on clothing. But I love it. Oh, and DVD's and books. But I love them too).
It rained last night, so my head doesn't hurt anymore, and it's cooled down considerably.
LJ seems to be fixed, mostly. I've still gotten a few database not available notes, and have been afraid to check my journal, but I've been able to read and post.
One of my sources referred to students who dropped out of high school as leading non-traditional lifestyles. Which I included in the story I wrote. My editor just put it on my desk with a raised eyebrow. I just giggled.
Things that make me less happy:
I really would like to go to ScaperCon, even though I've never been to a con because I'm so intrigued by all the people I've met on LJ. You must all descend on Southern CA next so that I can meet you. I will have to see if I can finagle a place in the UnCon with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
searose and whitelight1 and themoonbar.
I had too much wine with not enough food last night and feel a little out of sorts. (And I do not drink as much as it sounds like in my LJ, but my social life revolves around eating out. For instance, I danced at a restaurant last night, so after the adrenaline and the dancing, a glass and a half of wine without any food or water was too much).
I forgot my niece's first birthday. She doesn't care. Her parents and grandparents do. It wasn't forgetting so much as getting the day wrong. I am a horrible daughter/aunt/stepsister. I admit this. But they forgot my birthday too, so there. Yes, I'm one with maturity today. I will see the munchkin in a week and have cool prezzies for her, so that should help. I gave her a pink, plush velour track suit for Christmas and she almost fits in it, so I'm very excited to see that. She's gonna be my little fashonista, once she's old enough to shop, and you know, talk:) She has curly red hair, just like me even though she has no genetic ties and I adore her. You'd think I'd remember her birthday. But no. I was close though!! I should get points for that.
