Laughter Through Tears

Yesterday was the big shared birthday party. It was a dinner party for about twelve, and we ended up making enough food for about twenty, I think. All in all, though, things went very smoothly. Both the food and the company were lovely and I am so glad I did this. Although there were lots of fandom people there, it was light on the fandom talk most of the time. Which makes a nice change of pace, I think.

I slept over at my sister's and spent Saturday morning with her. We don't often spend quality time alone together and we were both of pretty good spirits so it was very nice. I left her one of the mini-watermelons I bought that we never opened, and I figure I'll bring the second one to my parents. My mom eats a lot of fruit, and my fridge is already pretty full.

On the one hand, it's Saturday and I have every excuse to spend the whole day on Tumblr or playing video games. On the other hand, it would be nice if I could motivate myself to write some original fiction. I'm completely rusty, especially since I'm trying to write in Hebrew which AHAHAHAHAHA. And trying to write Hebrew language fantasy which HAHAHAHA-no. Maybe I'm kidding myself, but now is the time to do all the things I said I would do etc. etc.

As long as I keep a clear head and reasonable expectations about it.
