Little niggling things - like the jaw (have medicated nasal spray to work on sinal passages), the foot (aches a lot after hockey), and just general muscle aches, particularly in the calves and in the temple and back of the head.
It doesn't help that I'm having that whole "why do I think I could write saleable stories" crisis again, fuelled by too many ideas, not enough focus, and (possibly) following too many people who are successful/popular at telling certain types of stories and thinking "I could never write (like) that".
And the unit of work that I'm presently on is...tricky. Plus, temp!supervisor and his timesheet fussing is getting on my nerves and I'm anxious about the hours that are ending up assigned to that, especially if we end up going down a wrong path.

Positive things:
I did have a delicious golden nugget pumpkin for dinner last night - they're small-size pumpkins, practically individual servings. You carve out the insides (seeds and pulp), put in your fillings (chorizo sausage, bacon, lentils, tomato, snow pea sprouts, garlic), and steam for about 30 minutes. I didn't grow the pumpkin (or the lentils, tomatoes, snow peas, or garlic), but I got it at a Crop Swap a week ago. Definitely a nice easy dinner, would make again - possibly even with a 'big' pumpkin as a side dish to something else.
We drew our game on Sunday, but we definitely dominated the field.
I think I've managed to pick all the papers out of my Passacaglia; now I have to put together a backing, and quilt it before the 8th June. While finishing another quilt. EASY PEASY. (ahahahahahah)
