Jan. 6th, 2011 07:59 amThis is one of those days I shall take one step at a time. The migraine doesn't want to go - sound and sight are still magnified. The virus is improving - I'm out of bed! The deadlines remind me they're still here - I have a long working day today. What this means is that I shall take today very carefully. I shall complete all my work and rest, sequentially.
If I improve enough, I have an Angry Robot book to report on this afternoon. If my head still hurts when I look at my computer screen, then you get the report tomorrow.
While I was feeling sorry for myself earlier, I realised that I didn't get my 2 weeks leave in September. I took some of it (for AussieCon) but missed much of it due to university deadlines. And I didn't take leave over Christmas, because I could see no reason behind taking time off when there was no-one to spend it with and nothing to do (Canberra closes down more than most cities at this time of year - it won't start up again until next week). In fact, I had trouble even taking weekends off, because of the boredom factor and the deadline factor. I've met all my first year's milestones, however, and probably ought to take a couple of days off before teaching begins. The question is, what do I do with them? There are all sorts of restrictions on my activities due to the money and the health issues. I suspect, however, I would not be hurting as much today if I took a bit more time off occasionally. I shall think on this further.
