I mostly failed at sleep last night and I have to get up in the morning to get a train to go to sister's for long weekend. ugh. Also I have not yet packed or anything. But I have washed my hair (for the first time in, um, at least a week, yuck (but it's cooooooold, dammit, whyfor I wanna get nekkid? and then have wet hair?)) and I have a list. And, um. There was something else I did, I think. Hmm.

I've spent a few hours at the parental's project flat this week, stripping wallpaper. It's looking more and more like I might end up living there, which would be awesome, though only marginally less pathetic than living here. Also it is low-pressure time spent with paternal which is good (mostly for keeping him off my back the rest of the time). Though we were talking about job-hunting which was depressing - he was made redundant a few years ago and applying for jobs "every single day" and it took him a year and. aggggghh. I think I ought to give him my report from the work psychologist to read, which basically says I shouldn't worry about work until I'm less mental. But, hello, awkward conversation number seventy-three! ugh ugh agh.

Dammit. Totally gonna turn the 'puter off and sort myself for the morning. Right.

That seems reasonable to me. Sitting waiting for them to look at it would be a bit fraught and awkward for everyone and also it is in itself a useful explanation of why you might hand it over and run away. Useful, that.

You do not do it to yourself, the Smurfs do it to you. I am getting a weird thing lately where bits of mad sort of separate themselves out and I look at them and say Who are you? and they say I'm your weird living arrangements or I'm a bit of childhood that makes you scared to express opinions, and I am surprised to find that they are not just bits of me and even more surprised to find that there is a me left. I should draw this as stick figures in order to make it more real, I think. But anyway, a surprising number of things turn out to be Smurfs all along. That is their evil power.
