I just got back from the dentist. I have to get two small fillings, because I have a little bit of tooth decay in between two teeth. I floss all the time and brush my teeth often but I ended up with this stupid problem because I wasn’t using fluoride toothpaste. The dentist told me that it’s the type of tooth decay that everyone used to have before fluoride was a big thing.

 Stupid! Now I am 1000% behind fluoride toothpaste. 

I am going to try hard to get a lot of things done today. Here is my to do list:

-tidy up house
-draw something
-work on natural zine
-exercise
-make paper packs
-dentist
-buy soybeans
-plant rosemary
-post office

I already did two things, and erased them from the list. They were: make a followup vet appointment for 56, and finish packaging items that are mailing out today.  

Things I want to buy, in order of importance:

1. Macbook

2. Gocco screenprinting kit

3. Nice pens or something to draw with

Someone just posted a link to Keep Calm Ltd, makers of the incredibly popular “Keep Calm and Carry On” reproduction vintage posters. I had never seen their site before, although have seen and heard a lot about SFgirlbybay, an etsy seller who sells the exact same posters. I couldn’t find any connection between the two of them so I emailed Keep Calm and they told me that they were the first to start making the posters, with permission from HMSO, and that unfortunately SFgirlbybay started doing it several months later. Ooh! Poster drama!

Reasons why I am grumpy today:

-too many donuts, permanent sugar crash

-dalas “quit” his 1-hr a week job of taking ebay photos for me, meaning I have no idea what to do as taking photos of myself for this is very very difficult

-feeling generally mad and sad due to pms (which in turn makes me feel stupid for being controlled by hormones)

-we returned the van today, no more driving around

-permanently messy house

-computer is so bad, there is a constant delay so I can’t even see what I am typing

-not one single person has called me re: all the jobs I have applied for

-sick of dalas asking for dinner when I am not hungry yet and do not want to cook

-taste test rejection

-jealous of elephant’s amazing painting skillz

-etc. wah wah wah

I am SO MAD that dalas was selected for the soup taste test and not me. I need $20 way more than him. I also checked every single box for availability. I like soup! Why not me? So soup sad.
