Today was a fairly quiet day. Granted, I had lots of work but they were quite evenly spaced out, which I quite like. I'm okay with being busy, but not okay being buried under an avalanche of assignments.
That ambivalent, though slightly despondent feeling I get when the weekends come is here... I used to have that when I interned in poly and worked 12-hour days. As a result weekends were terribly important and all I wanted to do was go out and shop like a madman and eat like a horse. I still get this feeling now but I'm also lethargic by the end of the week because I'm still not a morning person.
I haven't said this here yet but my working days start at 6 every morning, which means I have to be up by 4:45 each day to crawl to work. I get out of the office at 3 pm or so when the various deities and Norse gods of Asgard are smiling upon me, but that also means I look like this by the end of the day:
After that I head for Bikram yoga once or twice a week to defrost in the furnace we call a yoga room. It actually feels good because I get to regain all feeling in my limbs, despite it feeling like I just moved house from Jotunheim to Satan's living room.
I have another 30 minutes to go before I get to meet Cheryl for Maleficent! Plans: 10 minutes of furious clacking on keyboard and avidly frowning to look busy, 10 minutes to sit in the toilet to read 9GAG, and another 10 minutes to hide under the desk to pick up biscuit crumbs.
This weekend will be much livelier than my previous two shitty ones- alumni dinner Friday and Kelly's birthday party Sunday. Saturday will be well spent online looking at clothes I cannot afford and watching Orphan Black.
End of this scattered thoughts fueled post. Will be doing another post on X-Men: Days of Future Past soon x
