struggling!

Arf! I am struggling! As the day goes on I feel worse not better! I am fine for the first two hours after taking my cold and flu tabs but then it starts to go downhill. Wonderfully, the rest of the reading I have to do, on the whole, consists of articles that I know inside and out anyway. They are just in my pile to remind me of their relevance to this chapter. I have about three more sets of notes to read and then this section is done, and it is straight on to my NGO lit for analysis tomorrow... woo! I shall work until 4 and then slope off downstairs and lie down on the sofa for the evening. I really wanted to exercise so much this week and have been once so far, and I am eating too much because I have no willpower - staying sitting at my desk is using it all!!!

I washed my hair earlier and my wonderful new hairstyle has been compromised by my lack of styling skill or imagination... Instead of looking like a coquettish pixie, because of an overzealous application of wax I look more like a greasy-haired letch. Especially with my rheumy eyes and heavy breathing. Not a look I wish to keep.

It's so annoying because the work I am reading now is really exciting but I am just flat as a pancake. grrrr.

Hopefully tomorrow will be better eh?!

PS: It's ok, we can all breath easy because I found my Mp3 player yesterday. Yes, yes I did. 'Phew!' I hear you say. It was hidden in the bottom of a shoe (of course)... Poor plumber, I ask his forgiveness in my imagination, although really it was DB who cast the initial suspicion so maybe he should take the blame...
