mousmeMy alarm went off at 3:50 as usual this morning, but after I dragged myself out of bed I felt mysteriously not tired. I went about my morning routine, got dressed and had breakfast and made my lunch, and still felt fine. I was awake and alert, and even bopped a bit to Simon & Garfunkel in the car on the way to work.
Was this it? I thought. Had I finally turned a corner? Maybe I'm finally getting used to the crazy schedule. Maybe I've plateaued at a reasonable level of functionality, and everything will be well from now on! For a few minutes, there, I was intoxicated with the feeling of power that came from not being tired anymore. It was glorious!
Alas, it only lasted a few hours, and I just realised about ten minutes ago that, no, I'm still tired. Whatever that was this morning, the feeling has faded and I'm back to being groggy and unfocussed. But having the fog lift for two hours or so was really nice, even if now the contrast is a little saddening.
Work has been a bit busier than usual this weekend because of this kidnapping that hit the news yesterday. Lots of messages flying around, that's for sure. I hope they can get everyone back safely.
The Overtime Fairy has visited this week for the first time in ages. I have to come back in to work on Friday, which means it's right in the middle of my days off, but I can't pass up the opportunity for double time. If nothing else, it will help to pay the vet bills. ;)
Right. Off to face the rest of the day. More updates as events warrant.
