I hope the therapy helps, MissC! Yes, it's gonna suck, but no claw hand! The way I get through shit I'm not gonna like is to keep telling myself "It's gonna pass and be a memory, soon."

I have this tendency to think of very morose topics. I mean it might help define my blog, but I'm feeling like writing something more upbeat. Not sure why, but otherwise running into a problem. It isn't really writer's block, just thinking it should be at least tranquil. blah.

Have this urge to make soap with little spiders or bats on it. Hmmm. I wonder if anyone actually makes goth soap?

You should. Get some novelty moulds and practice with melting down glycerine soap first, because saponifying oil and lye is tricky and the bars can burn your skin if not left to cure long enough and tested for pH. (Though you can get stuff from aquarium shops for that)
You can get colours and scents online too, to add to a plain soap base.

Thanks. I have made soap years ago and have been meaning to do it again. Was thinking about getting a melt and pour kit, when I get the money.
Awesome link. Thanks. I'll bookmark it and study it later.

No worries. I was looking into it years ago for fun and studied up, but never ended up doing the cold process as my facilities were limited. Here are some cool black soaps http://www.soapbops.co.uk/index.php?cPath=3
Well, I'm cleaning this flat up so it looks like less of a dive, getting food made and Macgyvering storage/laundry lines.... things are better than they were. Still cranky though.

Got stopped this afternoon and was asked why I wasn't in school. I'm nearly 30 and apparently I look like I should be in school. :-/

Don't worry about it. When I opened the door to pay for my pizza last weekend, the delivery guy asked if my parents were home.

You guys are lucky - I got ID'd a few months back and was all smug and preeny as I handed it over, only to have the checkout woman ruin it by whispering "I know you're nearer 30 than 18, but we get told off if we don't ask everyone who looks around 25..." while she took it off me. Bitch nearly lost her fucking hand.

I'm pretty certain it's my height that makes people question my age. I don't think I look that young in the face, I'm just really short.

How the fuck should I know who I am...
Although a recent poll showed that 95% of people thought I was crazy... the other 5% who voted not crazy were later found to be eccentrics like myself.

I quit smoking last week. The last remaining addiction I had left.
Looks like Internets is going to be the crutch I lean upon whilst I get over the physical and mental aspects of withdrawal.

Soil classification systems are so very exciting......
ohhh now i think I've bumped up the stats to 96% or maybe 99% because even that's a little too eccentric for most eccentrics.

I just quit weed too (and by "just", I mean "yesterday"... hoping this one'll stick). I hear herbal Nytol is good for sleeping... :s
Nice to finally meet the famous Mir, by the way. Ever since the Zombapocalypse thread, I've just had this image of a giant pink brain inside which Jimi Hendrix is always playing.

Welcome back!
Quitting smoking is hard. I've done it a few times...
The only thing I refuse to give up is coffee!
This coffee is mine! There are many others like it, but this one is mine! Without me my coffee is nothing! Without my coffee I am nothing!
