nausicaa83: (<the world's end> out of order)
First day of my period, I got a lot of cramps this time around, so I wore two layers of clothes and sat around wrapped in a blanket all day, much to Sakura's delight. Apparently the softer I feel the happier she is. I only managed half an hour worth of therapy the other day because my therapist was trapped in a hospital council that went on forever, but luckly we're meeting again tomorrow morning. I still have to share the good news, I've been sleeping like a baby these past few weeks, and haven't had a single nightmare in nearly a month, it's a personal record. *____* It has probably a lot to do with the fact that after the panic attack I cut off caffeine, but still, I'm going to take a bit of credit for that one. ;)

I just got another call from my cellphone provider who's trying to sell me their landline/internet deals. They opened up with a very smooth "we noticed you currently pay 70 euros bimonthly with your provider, and we'd like you to offer you the same deal, but for only 39 euros a month". I waited for the punch line, and then replied "so you want me to pay 80 euros instead of 70 for the same thing? do people fall for that?" and hung up the phone. What the hell. That's a very skeevy thing to do, trying to trick people like that.

In fandom news, I started watching Arrow again. I dropped it a year ago around episode 7, because I had lost interest, but while hurting from cramps and bleeding it's actually a good distraction. It's nice, still a bit boring, but I like it. I'm not sure I'll be able to follow it weekly without getting bored again, but I'll probably pick it up again next summer when the second season is over. ^^

I got an announcement to make, thanks to the wonderful [livejournal.com profile] harriet_yuuko, on March 15th next year I'm going to a Mumford & Sons concert!!! Because she's awesome like that and checks the band's website for tour dates. It'll be in Florence, which is great because I've never been there, only drove through it once, and that's unacceptable, I know. :D

Weird anecdote of the day, I was in my friend's car going to the gym, and we were talking about Lucca. I was telling them about my cosplay, and all the while her niece was in the front seat, doing what I thought was checking messages on her phone. Not twenty seconds after I mentioned the word 'cosplay', she perks up and tells me:

Her: "You looked really good in it"
Me: "Thank- wait a minute, how could you know that?"
Her: "Isn't this you, in the miniskirt?"

And she shows me a picture of me with other cosplayers on her phone. Turns out she just had to write my name on her phone, and the internet gave her a picture in less than twenty seconds. A picture I didn't upload online, I have no idea where it came from, and it took her less time to find it than it took me to tell this story. This is witchcraft. Also very creepy.

By the way, we have a new lady in our gym group. She's very nice and everything, but she has a problem with rhythm. It's not like the other new girls, who stumble about for a while until they get it right. She moves in an entirely different rhythm from the song that's playing, as if she was listening to another song in her head. I have a feeling it's because she knows... mambo, or something similar, and just does that hoping it'll work. Which is incredibly weird, because she's standing right in front of me, with the teacher two steps further, and they move following entire different beats, and believe me, it gave me a headache. I'd rather die than tell her and risk embarassing her, so I'll have to move to another spot without her noticing. It's either that or doing cardio with my eyes closed, I haven't decided yet.

On the health topic, I skipped therapy today because I wanted to have another couple of days before going through all that "they found cysts in my liver" conversation again. I had it yesterday with my aunt, and it was brutal. She got scared out of her mind, and even talked about jumping on a train and rushing me to the ER to have it checked again. Thankfully, I managed to calm her down with the promise of talking about it throughly with my oncologist next month. Go for the breasts, stay for the liver.

I know that if the doctor didn't make a big deal out of it, it's not a big deal. But in my family it always started with a couple of cysts here or there, and ended in pain, so her reaction was to be expected. I'm taking a couple of days to clear my head and see if I can move my therapy session to sunday. ^^

Changing the topic, I started watching Arrow, and I really like it! Not a surprise, what with me being such a fan of Nolan's Batman. Yeah, new tv show that promises bucketloads of angst! I'll never learn. :D
