[mostly note to self]

[wispfox]

This is mostly a note to myself, as I appear to continue to be poor at noticing these kinds of things.

If I'm intensely grumpy, and it feels out of place, I _really_ need to do an internal check to see if I'm in a seriously overstim'd state.

Currently, combination of lack of light box (which I have used since I got home) for 4 or 5 days which were also intensely social, the fact that the weather thoroughly screwed up my schedule, and an unexpected conversation with someone who is often high energy-requiring for me (esp over the phone, which this was) appears to have put me into an _INTENSELY_ grumpy state. And, as I noticed a couple of seconds ago, _INTENSELY_ over-stimulated (shakey, skin-crawly kind of thing). Not that there was much I could have done even if I'd noticed earlier, since today was almost entirely taken up by travel.

Icky. At least now I know _WHY_ I'm so damn snappy/grumpy. And now I can go hide or something for a little while.

Blanket fort! *glee*

If the snow had been a bit less fluffy, and I'd been a bit more dressed for it, I'd have tried making snow forts last night while I was wandering around outside. Snow forts are _fun_!

And now fort makes me think of Fortinbras, aka the dog in Madeleine L'Engle's Wrinkle in Time series.

So MANY books in my head.
