*I'm trying out lowering my topomax dose from 75 mg to 50.

*The weather is cooler thank goodness.

*I survived a large family gathering over Labor Day.

*I called Building inspection for city of Madison; a guy is coming tomorrow to look at the AC unit.

*Forgot to link it here-- I wrote a blog post at WordPress about working on anti-harassment for WisCon; in response to Jim Hine's io9 article. He RTed it so it got a fair number of hits!

*I'm reading a long DA:I fanfic called "Stuck in the Puzzle". I don't know this fandom at all, but the fic is really good so far.

I took a bit of an internet break largely because my internet (or computer? who knows) was being troublesome. Still is, but there seem to be periods where it works OK. I don't know what is wrong, so don't know what to do about it.

On Saturday some mysterious energy appeared in my life/body/mind and I cleaned my apartment, in anticipation of having a few friends over. It was very nice to see them. I've been feeling a bit isolated, so I'm going to try and make more of an effort to get out and see people. One of the great things about my friends is not only do I like them-- I also like the people they introduce me to! quality all around.

Of course I overdid it yesterday, and today I am exhausted. Today has involved sleeping and resting.

A project for when it is slightly cooler: I want to take pictures of my coats and post them. coat fandom yay.

I am trying to get rid of things out of my apartment and make space for as yet unknown new things. It's that time of year.

I am on a bit of an enforced internet/computer break for about a week. I plan to live like it's the 1990s and watch movies, read paper books*, go outside, etc. I have already watched a couple DVDs from the library. Best way to reach me right now is via text message.

I am also thinking about changing jobs. Working from grant to grant is stressful. Advice on this front welcome.

*My Kindle 2 is borked. It lasted a long time but the little LED light fell out and the screen is frozen. Since it's past warranty, a friend said that the company would probably just offer me a discount on a new one rather than repair this one. I don't know that I want another Kindle necessarily; but I sure miss reading fanfic on it!
