I am having a gigantic crankiness problem lately, particularly in real life. I can tell I'm being really irritable and snappish, but noticing it tends to make me... more irritable. At least I can hide it a bit better online, but I'm still losing my patience way more often than I should--I get really pissed off about things I know are stupid, about things I know never used to bother me, but--it's completely involuntary and irrational. And I've been like this for weeks now, if not months.

I'm trying to work on it--I cut out caffeine again (a long while back) after I noticed it was making me cranky, I've been trying to eat better but more often, drink more water, get more sun--I already take a B complex and a multi-vitamin (and antidepressants, for those of you just coming in; I've been doing really well as far as the drugs + vitamins regimen goes, and for a long time now). I just don't know what else it is. Stress, maybe--stress of the uncertain and the unfinished, I guess. People around me dumping their stress on me, possibly. To be honest, I think a lot of it started six months ago when I began getting really emotional about turning thirty but not being what and where I wanted to be by this point in my life, and I don't think I've gotten past that yet.

I think I need more alcohol in my life. Perhaps something with fruit.

Zoloft 150, down from 200, day 2: Mmm, hot flashes. I dig the dizziness as well.

"Snakes on a Blog" on a premiere.

Snakes On A Motherfucking Press Junket.

Shouldn't the movie come out first, before we have Rocky Horror-style scripted interactions? 

British journalist weirded out by convention of Harry Potter slash and/or smut writers in Vegas. 

McGregor, Jackman are Tourists. Between this and The Prestige, Hugh Jackman is revealing himself to be a tireless advocate for female fanservice. "They want guys! Pretty guys! Two guys! Get me Jude Law on the phone, stat!"

"Fiction's for girls!" The best part is how plotless, "psychological" fiction is the fault of female writers. Which is weird, because I associate that kind of navel-gazing with hipster male writers. It's also the reason I've said, to hell with that people think is supposed to be "literary"; I want to write books with plots and stories and things that happen, that are also "literary." It just happens that I also think that psychology drives action, and that this Russell Smith in particular is an idiot.

I love Girls Are Pretty--which, by the way, has nothing to do with girls or pretty. Each day is a "holiday" of some sort, if you will. Today: "Everyone's Pretty Sure You're the Reason All the Kids Are Going Missing Around Here Day!"

From [livejournal.com profile] particle_person: Do you believe in the right to arm bears? The Substance Abuse page is gold, by the way. But then, it's a special feature on Jasper Fforde's site, so...
