Sweet and sour

That's how I feel today.

First of all, I woke up today to find out the thermostat of the water heater in my aquarium got stuck, and half my fish were cooked to death. Not funny at all. I'm still checking the body count with Belendor, and it seems I do have some survivors, but it still hurts me. I feel guilty about it.

Some of these fish had been with me for more than two years, and now most of them are dead. Although fishes are, of course, the pets I'm the least emotionally attached to, it still hurts me. I always tell myself I have animals because I can take good care of them, and now look at this mess.

Argh.

The Dark Tower V is coming out next Monday, and at last it seems I'm getting it on time. That's something nice. The sending of the payment gave me hell, but it seems it's finally solved. So I'm getting my book next Wednesday at the latest. I'm such a big geek.

I'm so tired. Arwen got me a gig assisting production for a music video last Saturday. I worked my ass off for 36 straight hours. My feet are blistered, my wounded knee is giving me hell and I still can't catch up on my hours of sleep, but I'm getting 150 bucks out of this. That's nice too.

Bel finally realized this is [i]October[/i] and we have a considerable amount of money to pay by [i]February[/i]. Now he's intent on selling +100 computers by that time, and although there's a potential buyer, I'm trying not to get my hopes too high. Just in case, I'm looking for a new apartment.

And still I can't get even a mildly promising interview. Sigh. Could it be that my resume sucks?

Another good thing: Halloween is coming, and my life always changes around that date. Let's cross our fingers, shall we?
