07:44 pm - Whew!
Today was the search for a new desk, which took several hours, and ended us up in an Office Depot purchasing a particle board friction desk (tm), which I'd sworn not to do again. However, the wooden desk I had been using was a kids' desk, and tennish hours a day in front of it was killing my back. Now I have to learn to sit like a normal person again. Oh, and I have to put my apartment back together. Going from a 30" desk to a 47" one required some interesting rearranging. It looks like a furniture store exploded in here.
Honestly, buying a desk just feels so wrong. Especially buying one new. I feel like I've broken the scavengers' code. But it's much comfier than the old one!

11:41 am - Look, a bed!
Here's some of what I've been doing with my time. In early April, I built a loft bed in my room out of white pine 2x4s and 2x6s. It's extremely rough, but it holds me up, and seems to be sturdy enough. Guerrilla carpentry at its finest. It's been done for a bit, but I had to clear out the area underneath and remove enough sawdust to take photos. As an interesting note, I've made it a rope bed to avoid having to figure out how to fit slats in a way I could take back apart. So far, it's working well. Room's still a mess and the underneath area will eventually be more hospitable.

01:20 am - Taking the crazy out for a walk
Been a loon again, cranky and cynical, and prone to bouts of weeping. I wish I could figure out why. Slept a lot this afternoon, due to a severe headache, so I'm up later than I ought to be. Going to try to do a bit of actual work before sleep, to make up for not doing much earlier in the day. First, however, my new chair:
