On being exhausted & ghost-hunting

Needle-Felted Retro Green TV  - by ThingsByV - $20 USD

The last few weeks have been a whirlwind of one situation to manage after the other, guys. And to be perfectly honest, I'm completely exhausted by it all.

I thought that taking some time away from social media (I'm 12 days into a 30 day Internet Rehab, btw) would help give me some perspective about what I really need to accomplish in life.

Turns out that I just wanna turn everything to do with "work" (also known as the beast I constantly manage called nerd JERK) the heck off for a while.

This may be because I never get everything done my To Do Lists.. and in some cases, have never gotten back to some really kind people (I'm looking at you Cody from Daft Crafts and Katrina from toffee magazine)... but, again, to be perfectly honest - I just don't have the bandwidth!

It's gotten the point that I wake up in the morning, email people if I have to, then avoid everything by crocheting & watching ghost shows on Netflix.

I mean it, guys... I've even resorted to watching most of "Ghost Lab"!! And it's not a great show.

So now that it's late at night, I've spooked myself out by watching 12 hrs of ghost shows and my boyfriend and cats won't stay up with me to speculate as to whether or not we should do an investigation on our house (We totally should! But I'm scared!!!), I'm left here to whimper into the internets about how much I'm not getting done while getting a lot of other stuff done.

I need a real vacation...

If anyone would like to pay for one, or even wants to paranormally investigate my house, let's chat. ;)

Got Pac-Man Insomnia

Guess what? It's 4:30 in the morning and although it's been an incredibly awesome ( and long!) day, I'm still awake.

What am I doing with all my spare time, you may ask? Well, I'm playing old school Pac-Man on my Nintendo DS, of course!

And I've determined a couple of things while playing this game for the last 4 hours or so:

1. I am TERRIBLE at Pac-Man
2. My knee-jerks when I get eaten. I also cuss under my breath.
3. Pinky ALWAYS gets me! What a douche!
4. I can't get past the 3rd level (see #1).
5. I seriously want to sell my Pac-Man items again.

Once upon a time, I used to sell my Pac-Man amigurumi in my Etsy shop, until one day, Namco got poopy cos they didn't want ANYONE on Etsy selling anything to do with Pac-Man. Their 30th anniversary was coming up & I guess art inspired by their iconic imagery was not something they were into.

I was NOT the only one who came home one day with all of my Pac-Man related items pulled from my shop without my consent. However, I'm probably one of the only people that didn't put anything Pac-Man related back up for sale in my shop a few days later.

And over a year later, I still wouldn't want to put my items up for sale, only to get reprimanded again.

So, since I'm up and since it seems that sleep won't be coming anytime soon, I thought I'd ask my rad readers:
Do you think I ought to start selling my Pac-Man related items again?

Would love to hear what you think in the comments! :D
