The forces of the universe are conspiring against me. I was doing well in my quest to blog every day.
Then my internet stopped working.
Then I got sick.
Everything sucks. I got internet back today (!!!) but the sickness slightly prevails. They are all here in a master post because no one will go read multiple posts. I spam you poor people enough.
JANUARY 8: BUBBLE BATH DAY
I don’t really care for bubble baths so I bought a bath bomb from Lush. It was called Blackberry and it smelt like heaven. Unlike my prior bath endeavours, I was successful. I don’t have internet (STILL) so I watched Sex and the City. I don’t like Sex and the City but it was one of the few things I have downloaded that I haven’t recently watched. I’ve been suffering.
Here is a picture of my bathtub. There was no way I was gunna post a photo of me in the bath.
JANUARY 9: PLAY GOD DAY
I am an avid Sim player sooo I just played The Sims 4.
Then I remembered how much I hate Sims 4. It’s so boring.
JANUARY 10: CUT YOUR ENERGY COSTS DAY
I mostly sat around in darkness all day. What better way than to cut your energy cost than embracing your inner vampire?
JANUARY 11: CLEAN OFF YOUR DESK AND LEARN YOUR NAME IN MORSE CODE DAY
Firstly, “Cristina” in morse code is “-.-. .-. .. … – .. -. .-” Riveting stuff.
I don’t have a desk. My dresser, however, is a mess.
And yes, I do have a disco ball AND a wooden block on my dresser. I stole the wooden block from The Hideout, it was a strange night.
I’m a spacey person that is busy a lot, so everything of mine tends to end up everywhere. I try to clean more but………..yeah I just don’t.
It took about 10 minutes. My solo dance parties will now feature a funky disco ball for maximum danciness.
JANUARY 12: POETRY AT WORK DAY
I read a lot of poetry in my spare time but SOMEHOW this is a day I read no poetry. As I forgot, here are two of my favourite poems, written in full because I wanted to read them as well.
Mad Girl’s Love Song – Sylvia Plath
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead;
I lift my lids and all is born again.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
The stars go waltzing out in blue and red,
And arbitrary blackness gallops in:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
I dreamed that you bewitched me into bed
And sung me moon-struck, kissed me quite insane.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
God topples from the sky, hell’s fires fade:
Exit seraphim and Satan’s men:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
I fancied you’d return the way you said,
But I grow old and I forget your name.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
I should have loved a thunderbird instead;
At least when spring comes they roar back again.
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)

Xvii (I Do Not Love You…) – Pablo Neruda
I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.
I love you as the plant that never blooms
but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;
thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,
risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.
I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way
than this: where I does not exist, nor you,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.
JANUARY 13: I’m ignoring it
Today is National Rubber Duckie, Sticker, Peach Melba (???), and Skeptics Day. I am sleep deprived and I don’t care about any of them. Okay, except rubber duckie day but I’m not going to go outside and buy one because I am exhausted.
I’m giving you people a giant post, WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT FROM ME?
Oh yeah, cat pics. Look at the Star Wars one!!
What day is it even?
