Time on Treadmill: 30 minutes.
Pain level: Much reduced, thank you.

Oh, the difference a day (and a dose of prednisone) makes. Not only did I stay up all night working on these feather pendants (two oxidized silvers, one oxidized copper, and one fire-painted copper), I then had a fantastic eight hours of sleep, woke up and cleaned the kitchen, did some laundry, put the feathers on cord necklaces, moved the bench and surrounding items in an attempt to find the aquamarine cab that bounced off the table yesterday (couldn’t find it, but that’s okay — I can get another one on Monday), went out for a lovely Mediterranean dinner with Ramón, my editor, and her husband where we discussed the suckiness of the looking for work situation, replaced a fritzy socket in a table lamp (even better, it turns out the old socket was for three-way bulbs — once I put in the new single-intensity socket, the lamp became much brighter), and now I think I’m gonna put on my jammies, take my meds and go to sleep early because I can. dammit.

Also, my jawline is becoming more pronounced. That’s kinda cool.
