Today is a good day to... everything!
Yesterday was a definite day of downswing. Mood, luck, Stuff, all rock bottom. Today? Is less than halfway through and already feels like that moment on the way up to the top on a swing, when your insides go over with the force of the lift and the iron frame around you shudders and lurches as your weight and momentum tug on its anchoring, and the wind and sun hit you in the face and it's all too exhilarating to be frightening even if it does feel like you're about to fall off. Today, so far, is good.

And this news article on measuring quantum effects without them realising that you're looking is just the icing on the possibly-existent cake. Apparently, if you can manage to observe reality without changing it, you discover that it is EVEN WEIRDER THAN YOU THOUGHT. Somewhere in the back of the universe, I can hear laughter. ^_^

In other more local news, it's so good to be awake and alive and not half dead with exhaustion for a change. ^_^ I even have a story blocked out in my head, which is great as I've been utterly useless at getting anything into pennable form lately. And today there will be pub food, and useful work, and friends, and also Judgement Day pay-per-view over at Mark's... yep, stuff is good. Life++.

Laters,
The Navigator

PS Also, new best thing ever: Body Shop's brazil nut body butter. I have no idea how it goes from smelling of warm and creamy and, well, brazil nuts in the jar, to smelling like WKD-Iron-Brew-over-hot-charcoal[1] on me, but the fact that it does is frankly just fantastic. Win!

[1] You will learn strange things from pouring alcoholic libations over a disposable barbeque. You may also discover the most unimaginably wonderful caramelised-sugar smell in the world, seriously... ^_^

Lupie! Weiß said you have some killer migraine medication combo but I can't remember what he said the names were - solzatriptan? salsatriptan? - and some orange horse pills for tension. I'm off to the doctor for a new prescription on Thursday, so if you could tell me what it is I could give them a try, please?

Also, where did you say you got that awesome pen again?

Oh! Right, yes, the migraine pills are sumatriptan, and the orange tension headache things are Syndol, which are over-the-counter thingers not specifically for migraine, but if you get the ice-pick-above-the-eye pain, it'll be amazing. Take the sumatriptan - ONE SUMATRIPTAN SERIOUSLY - at the start of the symptoms. No migraine. Simple. I like to chase mine with a couple of Syndol just in case...

And the AWESOME PEN is from Tindalls art shop (used to be Heffers Art) in town, on King Street. <3

	Thankee muchly. I shall be looking into the Syndol very soon, since I get the Trotsky effect very badly. Might even go and see if the useless chemists of useless have some tomorrow. Fantastic. I shall be sending money in their direction soon ... :: wantwantwantwantsthatpen:: (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Might as well post it here ... I give up with the LJ-IJ interface thing, bleh. I have an IJ, add it to your filters so I don't have to jump through six hoops to read your posts please? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	navigatorsghost 2009-05-21 09:48 am UTC (link)
	Right, which filters do you want? You have a choice of Fandom (me talking about stuff I'm into), Headcast (me talking about people resident in my head, some overlap with both Fandom and Religion), Religion (gods, monsters, and purple lobsters) and Rathangst.... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
