Wow, I have a wicked headache today. We just relocated to the other end of the office (yes we moved AGAIN! this is at least the 20th time), and they had all the lights on. Normally Mike turns half of them off so we girls don't have headaches from the terrible florescent lights.) But Mike didn't get around to us until around 2:30, and by then it was way to late -- headache has already moved in and seems quite fit to stay for the night. Pressing all the reflex points isn't helping me either, might be a migraine, I feel sort of sick at the moment. Florecent lights are one of the main causes of headaches and migraines in the work place, especially because florecent lights flicker, even though the human eye cannot see it and that flickering can trigger migraines. I think I'm just gonna have to shut all the curtains and keep my eyes closed for a while.
Maybe I'll try some ibprophen first. :( Man, I certainly don't miss this pain though. Migraines run in the family though, but I haven't had as many problems as I have this year with them. I am very reluctant to use any medication for them though. But for the past month I haven't had a single problem until now, and that was brought on by the lights not being the way I am used to them. So I'm pretty confident that this Raw Diet is helping me a lot in that respect. I am just assuming that all the sugar I had been eating was triggering them. I hope it's not chocolate though. ;) I was going to make some more of those raw chocolate brownies this afternoon. I might put half carob and half cocoa powder in it instead this time. I really just want some chocolate, but I don't want to buy it from the store cause it has a bunch of sugar in it! :)
I think there were some recipes for raw chocolate truffles on the internet that I might try instead though, but I think they had basically the same ingredients.
I don't know what's been going on with me the past few months, but I am just not writing like I used to. I haven't really been writing at all. I think I have just been doing this particular book for so long that I am growing bored with it. Really I think it's just because I'm uncomfortable with how the ending goes. I hadn't really mapped out the last quarter of the book, so I am very disorganized and don't know what comes next. Maybe I should start with mapping it out. I gotta do something to get this jumpstarted and I have to do it soon.
On another note - I just remembered that I was supposed to be recording piano music all week -- And so far? I have only recorded one, and I will have to redo that one cause I hate it! :) And then I have to decide what I am playing for church when Aug. 1 rolls around!! I have a new song in the works, but I'm not sure if it will be ready by the end of the month. I'm still playing around with it. It seems that my longer pieces, the ones that have different - oh - movements in it, those take me well over 3 months to compose. I just play it again and again and again, adding more and more and tweaking with the harmonies until I decide it's finished. Those longer songs never have lyrics to them. Well, except for Lord God of Heaven. Which I will be recording this week! Whether I want to or not! I wish I could somehow record the organ part that goes with it. Cause it really sounds cool when it's all put together. Maybe if I wrote it out I could have Gin playing a piano/organ duet with me! She would love that. :)
I still haven't written out the music for any of these pieces in Finalie, cause my Midi just sucks. :P I will have to talk to that piano guy at the music store, he was saying I probably had my Midi set up wrong. Could be, I haven't used it for five years, I didn't really try to figure it out. I used it for a week and gave up. hehehe.
