(no subject)

I'm somehow both awake and tired it's kind of weird, even for me. At least the coffee is good again so I can drink some more wake up juice after my bottle of water.

I love the cup my hubby picked for me: I picked it up from Redbubble for him but he seems to feel I should I use it more: "Save A Spaceship, Ride an Engineer..." I bought it when he got his degree in Electrical Engineering.

I'm cheerful for the second day today. Part of me is worried that it's a bout of mania since I was depressed a few weeks ago. I hate the mania more than the depression. When the depression lifts things look up when the mania leaves things look worse and I hate it more because of it.

But I could be borrowing trouble maybe it's just two days in a row where I'm happy? It's been known to happen.

But I wish I could have at least inherited my mothers ability to eat whatever she wants without gaining weight along with her mental illness and frizzy hair? But nope, it seems like I look at bad food and gain a ton of weight. But at least I have an anxiety disorder to keep the worst of my manic impulses under control.

I'm in love with the icons I made last night for yesterdays prompt. I should play with greens more since I loved bringing out the vibrant green colors. I may need to buy a paid account for dreamwidth since that's where I'm having most of the comments and I need more than 15 icons...

Ian and I made a nice tasty guiness stew with chicken since our planned dinner of teriyaki chicken had to be postponed because we were out of honey. And now I'm not sure if I want that or the tabbouleh I made for today's lunch because I love both.

Dinner will be my husband's amazing teriyaki chicken. I love it so much and it's been ages since he made it.

Panera is giving us free bagels this month which is cool but I find hilarious because I just bought bagels because they were buy one get one at Publix and I haven't had bagels in forever... But like hell I'm turning down a free Asaigo cheese bagel or other lesser flavors every day this month.

I don't know why we were selected or if every one with one of their rewards card gets one but free bagels.

Today's plans consist of writing up an entry for fic writer Wednesday, deciding if I want to participate in femslashfest, organizing my icon folders, and starting an icon making project I've decided I want to do, and write up a kind of who's who and about me entry for more blog since I've made a few new friends.

Damn you Ants

I went downstairs to feed the cats. My Boo and my roomate's cats Sebastian and Ariel, were all hungry so I poured food in the bowl.

Boo meows at me. I tell him annoyed I just fed you, I literally just poured food in the bowl, you watched me do that.

He meows the meow I interpret as his "But, Moooom..." meow because he only uses it when he's trying to get our attention.

I look down ants are in the bowl. All over the bowl and the floor. For the third time this week. I poured out the bowl, washed the bowl, wiped down the floor to hopefully kill as many of the little bastards as I could.

I've moved the food upstairs and my OCD cat is upset that I've changed a pattern again. I joke about it but I'm pretty sure Boo has OCD since any changes we make send him into a tizzy.

He's pouting as I write this.

I know the ants are drawn up because of the rain but damn it ants stop stealing my cat's food.
