I Have A Shitload Of Work To Do

But I'm starting to get all panicked and short of breath so I am going to take five minutes out of work to do this and calm down a lot.

I think the best option is to list all the good things that are happening at the moment, because there are also bad things but I like the good things better and so let's have those instead.

1) My English coursework is MUCH better than all of my previous coursework, and shows GREAT PROMISE.
2) I actually had a pretty darned good Valentine's Day, which is shocking for lots of reasons. Some good ones are that I got post it notes for leaving gooey sentimental messages for each other hidden in each other's rooms. So far I have hidden them in his pocket and under his pillow, and he got all melty which was the desired effect. I also got a shitload of chocolate and a rose, which is just adorable.
3) I get to see my whole family next week, which is total bliss because I love them all (it's for a rubbish reason, but we're not focussing on that).
4) My boyfriend is a complete miracle, for more reasons than I will ever be able to fit into one blog post. He does cracking cheese on toast and rubbish pancakes, he has more patience with me than I really deserve, he understands all the mildly geeky things I say and none of the uber geek things I picked up from exes gone by, he suggested that if I wanted to borrow his guitar while he played but he needed his six string that I could play his seven string which he really doesn't let people do, he buys food a lot but lives far enough away that I'm working off all the calories, he actually comes to see me (we rarely have a day off from each other), and yeah. We'll stop this now while I still have blog readers that haven't abandoned me because I've turned into a sap.
5) I have a new favourite item of clothing. It is my hat. It is brown with a black trim on it and goes with freaking everything, which makes it blissful. AND it was bought for me :) It is one of the best birthday presents I have ever had and I got it early :D
6) The psychopath who went to my senior school no longer frightens me, and instead just disgusts me, which is a vast improvement.
7) I JUST FOUND THE COURSEWORK I DID LAST YEAR WHICH I AM REDOING NOW SO NOW I HAVE A GREAT BIG CHUNK OF 600-ODD WORDS TO ADD TO MY PIECE OF SHIT COURSEWORK THAT I HAVE SO FAR. FUCK. YES. That has literally just made my day. Sorry about the caps, gentle reader.
8) I have another vintage fair outing planned for June which will involve dressing up and therefore gives me an excuse to go out and buy a vintage dress.
9) I am almost 18, which means I am allowed to go to The Hobbit when Luke and Hannah ask me to go to The Hobbit, which will be wonderful because I miss them the most of anyone who left last year.
10) This list has actually calmed me a considerable amount.
11) There is minty hot chocolate at home.
12) I am going to crochet the ghosts out of Pacman and give them as random feel-better presents the minute I get some decent yarn.

Yes :) That'll do nicely.
There are also lots of bad things, but they do not need to be focussed on in this sunshine flavoured post.
I have realised that I would quite like to give free hugs to all the librarians, because they are nice but misunderstood. Misunderstood here meaning that the people who use the library are all noisy and the librarians go SHHHHHH and the noisy people get all pissy, which is not the librarian's fault, it is, after all, A FUCKING LIBRARY YOU NOISY BASTARDS.
I'm done with the shouting. I think I want to put a picture into my post, as pictures make everyone feel good. I shall go scouting for one.

There you go. A happy cactus made of wool.
I am seriously considering creating a pattern for this and making one.
RIGHT. Sodding off now. Love to all :) XXXXXXXXXXXXX
