Good things:
1. I just bought a car! It's old and I think might be a bit temperamental, but thank God I no longer have to rely on buses to get where I'm going (note I don't say 'on time.' That's never happened to me, in two and half years here).
2. I just got paid for a story I sold. Only $45 (£28, what happened to the exchange rate?!) but wow, someone gave me money for something I wrote :))))

Less good things:
1. My boss (one of them) is a crazy control freak and if she doesn't stop, I'm going to snap.
2. I'm so tired! I want to sleep, and instead I wake up at 4 in the morning. I don't want to be awake then! And I have so much work to do, and my family is descending this weekend, which wouldn't be so bad except that I'm working Saturday. I have no idea when my minutes will get done, none. Particularly since I'm so tired I'm having trouble focussing - makes reading my shorthand really difficult.

Time stamp ficlets coming along, slowly.

Congratulations on 1 and 2!! Er, the first 1 and 2, of course.

The second 1 and 2 are very likely interconnected. Job stress can cause insomnia, fer shure. The waking up at 4 AM variety is called 'terminal insomnia'. I like an herbal sleep aid called Valerian Root. It doesn't smell good, but it has helped me in the past to either stay asleep, or fall back asleep. Not that I have anything against stronger measures when called for!
