Ready to go

I'm ready. Or at least as ready as I am going to be. I am just about the world's least chill traveler ever, so a lot of today was spent freaking out. However, I did manage to finish up some things that I really wanted to do, like posting the next chapter of my Mass Effect story. I'm really enjoying writing it. While I've written science fiction forever (and interestingly enough, fan fiction too, since one of my early stories was about Clifford the Big Red Dog. I was promptly told it was copyright infringement and that I wasn't allowed to write stories about other people's characters. I was about 7.), I haven't written much romance at all. I also haven't finished many long stories either. I'm at 60,000 words now. I feel like this is helping my writing a lot.

So, that's about it. The flights are short, and it seems like everything should be pretty calm. I can buy anything I've forgotten in Vilnius, so I don't really need to stress. Also, I plan on eating a lot of peanuts tomorrow. That will fix almost anything.

Oh, and in mostly unrelated news, I figured out why my blood sugar is sometimes high in the morning. Okay, if I'm stressed, it is high, but also if I don't eat by 10am, then it goes up also. I believe that extra glucose is stored in your body (liver, I think) and pulled out when you need it. Apparently, late breakfast = using glucose reserves. This could be why not eating breakfast is bad for weight loss and why I've always felt sick/anxious if I don't eat by 10am. So, another interesting data point.

Now, to bed! And reading fan fic until I pass out. Whee!
