In my skin today

Today is a good day. :)
No, really. I feel beautiful and happy and like a pixie girl.
I kind of feel almost halfway normal. I mean, aside from the hemiparetic tremors. And the muscles that are like burning, because fibromyalgia is a shadow everywhere all the time.

People wanted to know why I rarely smile fully in photos? It's because I can't hold a wide smile for more than a few seconds without every facial muscle starting to tremble and spasm. It's not pleasant and it hurts. I hope that answers that, because I don't like hurting when posing for pictures.

Beyond that, today is a good day, and I am a pixie girl. :)
And I love my hair. And my skin.

Ah, the company of partnership...

Adam came home tonight from his long job at the Gaylord Opryland Hotel in Nashville, a hotel the size of a city. He had clocked in at something like one hundred fifty hours in two weeks. He had better get some time off.

A few friends have often asked me what the Welcome Home Sex is like. To quote myself from earlier tonight: "Oh, Mighty Aphrodite, I think we smashed through the G spot and the A spot and rammed the Q spot at light speed. I need a few minutes before I can move. I need to put my brain back together. My Higher Brain exploded a little."

Dinner was baked salmon and purple rice, dessert was a Krispy Kreme doughnut or two, and after that I showed Adam the most recent Futurama episode, "Near Death Wish" - which was heartwarming, heartwrenching, beautifully sweet, and deserving of an Emmy nomination.

Tomorrow will involve running errands together. Yay!

I am having way too much fun with makeup colors to go with my amazing hair color. Who knew natural medium brown could open up so many possibilities?

I don't know about you guys, but I feel like some sort of Fae princess warrior all prettied up to attend a posh gathering.
