"Jewelry. Jewelry! It's jewelry, people!" -Amy Wong, Futurama

I decided to rearrange my talisman jewelry into what works best: two amber bracelets, honey and lemon, plus a multi-color tourmaline bracelet on the left wrist, and a citrine yellow jade bracelet on the right wrist. Around my neck, a pendant that includes the Ouroboros pendant with the honey amber cabochon, the wand made up of selenite, kyanite, black tourmaline, and copper wrapping, plus tiny beads of green tourmaline and citrine. I feel very balanced and energized now.







I have tiny wrists, so my jeweler friends made all the bracelets in a size 5, which I've been told is normally reserved for children.
My main motive for the gemstone bracelets is to force my brain to be aware of my left side, which is why the left arm has three bracelets. The citrine jade bracelet is heavier, but feels perfect on my right wrist. The yellow and gold stones are all connected by another stone made of tiny citrine stones that sparkle happily. Citrine and yellow jade are both full of positive power and soothing energy.

Of course, then there is the Australian crystal opal ring that my mother gave me, and the silver wire-wrapped ring with blue kyanite and lepidolite.

Kyanite and Citrine are the two gemstones that never need cleansing, too.

Very random pretty things

Dear everyone:
I'm in the middle of okay and not okay. Just so you know. No need to worry, but since I am still in the post ictal state (after seizure), I may type randomly weird things that are randomly weirder than usual.
♥
And now, random things that are random!

You know what is awesome? Brand new boots that generally cost over one hundred dollars, bought for a whopping twenty dollars each with coupons. Mainly because the Ariat Fat Baby Copper Gator Print boots are no longer being made. The Ariat Fatbaby Cognac Ostrich Print boots are insanely cheap, too. Yay, Ariat. Yay, sales and coupons!

So, I use this as toothpaste. I mean, obviously it is a shampoo and a skin cleanser, but it makes a good toothpaste as well. I embrace my weirdness quite happily.

Also, this makes an awesome tooth cleanser and face toner.

Aww, look, it's my wedding ring which began as my promise ring, minus the snake details!
Technically, this.

Stupid sore throat. Stupid fibromyalgia attack. Stupid depression attack. Stupid anxiety attack. Stupid after seizure effects. Stupid me. Also I am feeling insanely insecure, and I know I have gained muscle and tone but I still want to slice out any excess fat with daggers. Such is society's cultural pressure on women and also anorexia scars and anorexia worms that push me into wanting to emaciate myself which would be a horrid hideous thing. I am a fighter. Fuck all of that. I am at war with so many things right now, and the scars are just part of it. I don't even know why I'm talking about that, it's so private. Oh well. Pain is pain. I am in pain. I am anxious and depressed and bleeding inside and I am exhausted and I am still fighting.
I shall raise my spears and scream until I am sore. Again.
I shall meditate while grasping my heart love duck figurine. Maybe I will feel better.


Migraine is still pounding. Off to shower and bed with pills now...
