Holy smokes, I'm doing good this week in the dragon department! I got a two-color hatchling, my second and third dino egg, and two silvers! Whoohoo! *does an extremely nerdy dance*
In other news, I've managed to hurt my back. Lower back, to be specific. Pulled it, I think. Evidently I somehow did it in my sleep, because I went to sleep at one point and was just fine (though I'd slept funny on my neck so that was stiff), and woke up to my back being all seized up. I think it's the same spot I pulled a couple years ago while moving into the new apartment. Hurts like hell, and makes walking a bitch. Guess it's a good thing I don't have any very pressing errands to run in the next couple of days. Sheesh. |

Yay, nice big super attack with lots of shakes, spasms, uncontrollable muscle contractions, funny vision, had to remind myself to breathe much of the time... Not sure how long it lasted, but it was a while.
Oh, and I've still got my cold, or allergies or whatever it is. Majorly congested. Fun.
I need to run a couple errands, but I don't think I'm going anywhere today.
Sigh. |

Obligatory eggies:    
And now for the real entry.
Feeling better than yesterday, though still pretty blah. Got a headache. >.o
My obsession with vernal pool invertebrates is increasing. >>; I have three species of brine shrimp, and a freshwater species I'm waiting on. :3 I've found a bunch of other people online--with a lot of effort o_o-- that have the same interests. Not only are they interested, but some of them breed various other species, from fairy shrimp to clam shrimp to water fleas and triops, and a lot of trading goes on between the members of the community. Plus, I'm picking up tips on how to find my own little crustaceans out in the wild, and I can't wait to go hunting. I'm hoping to get a good look round the ponds the next time I'm at my folks' place; I'm pretty sure there aren't any fish in their ponds, so they're fairly likely to be full of critters. :3
Silly? Maybe. Adorable and fun? Totally. ^^;
Meanwhile, we've got storms here, again. Which actually ties into the above, since the rain will fill up the pools my little pets tend to appear in in the wild. I'm hoping I'll feel well enough one day this week to go explore a little. Gas is kinda expensive, but since I haven' t been driving back and forth to work, I think I can get away with one day of driving around country roads. ;) And at least it'll get me out of the house. Blargh.
I guess that's it for now, except to note that although I've been hungry, I've had like no appetite for a few days now. Although yesterday I somehow managed to inhale nearly an entire box of Cheez-Its in one sitting. I'm a little grossed out by that fact. >>;;; |

I'm now convinced that human saliva has healing and/or pain-reducing qualities.
How else could jamming my pinky in my mouth after dropping a two-pound glass bottle of spaghetti sauce on it actually bring the pain down to bearable levels? |
