Frustration

-->Bad traffic in the morning meant an 8:30-4:30 day (though actually I managed to take that one pretty well, as it happened early enough for me to realize there wasn't a hope of getting in by 8)
-->Rushing to get a duplicate check done in time at the end of the workday so I could get out in time to catch my bus
-->Once at home, Mom opens the cupboard to get plates for dinner and it is CRAWLING with tiny ants -- we've been fighting them for a bit but this is the first major group we've seen. Dishes are yanked out of the cupboard, cleaned, and after supper Dad got ant-killer to spray anywhere they might congregate. Dishes are currently piled up all over the counter, so making my lunch will have to be a morning activity.
-->Finish that fun (and my shower), open DragonVale, get in position to take perfect picture of my new Lagoon dragon, Creature -- game crashes right after I take it, and the photo doesn't immediately show up in the albums (though it does later, thankfully). Game crashes again before I can get picture of Matilda (my Wyrmwood) and Wesley (my Quicksand), but I persevere and get all the pictures I need for Weyr Wednesday on my tumblr and e-mail them to myself. . .
-->And then suddenly my pictures aren't being sent as attachments anymore -- they're embedded straight into the e-mail where I can't get at them or edit them. After cursing, I finally strike upon the idea of sending them to one of my other e-mail accounts, where they show up both ways. Takes way longer to do and edit, and end result is I don't get anything done on Chapter 13 of "In The Land of the Dead."
-->tumblr itself is being pissy for a while and not loading all pictures on photo posts -- aaaand it might be fucking up reblog chains again. I think I've got the problem licked for Forgotten Vows's queue for tomorrow, but I'm not THAT hopeful. Had to stick one photo post someone shared with me in drafts because the bottom bit was refusing to show up. . .
-->And now I've kind of run out of time to catch up on my personal tumblr, but that's more or less my own fault as I was rereading old personal fanfics featuring Victor getting hypnotized to calm myself down from some of the earlier stuff
So yeah, Tuesday kinda bites. Hoping Wednesday improves things. Night all!
