Resisting Temptation

Oct 14, 2007 23:36

Recently I've had a bit of a health scare which has forced me to realise how much of a bum I've been lately. I've been putting all of my effort into taking care of things and other people, so in turn I've begun to neglect myself. After I'm finished with obligations I'm usually too tired to put the effort into caring for myself. If I had the time that I used to have last year it would be different, but, well, that's no excuse for me to run myself into the ground now.

I know there are people out there who worry about my health much more than I do, so for them I should start taking proper care of myself, because nobody is around to do it for me.

The Visa application was sent away today and now all that is left to be done is to wait for a reply. In that time I need to get my affairs in order. Tomorrow is the beginning of a whole new work week... and god... I don't want to have to face it.

I just about spent the entire day playing Phantasy Star Universe. I got my main account to level 37, a level three Fortefighter, and I just now have gotten my hands onto a 16% holy eight-star axe, which is pretty good. I just have to climb up one more level before I can use it, or go up one more license level. I'm saving for an axe photon art to attach to the weapon. Heh heh... the strongest weapon type in the game. Warren's going to be unstoppable very soon...

Usually when I walk to and from work or to town I bring a walkman with me so I can walk and listen to music at the same time. My CDs were getting a little repetitive so I went to the library and borrowed some audio books on CD. This weekend I tried going for walks with the audio books reading a story to me and it's quite effective. I really enjoy it. It's like I'm learning at the same time as I'm exercising.

I went for a walk this evening to buy some more coffee for when I'm at work, but they were all out of the brand that I liked. I bought this other brand that seemed pretty good and brought it home, then made myself a cup to make sure that it was okay. It was the most disgusting thing I've ever tasted. It was like melted chemicals in a mug. Ugh...

Also, I got an estimate on my tax return a few days ago. I'm getting back close to 2k in taxes, but I'm not quite sure what to do with it. I'll probably bank it if I can't figure out anything soon.
