I am posting to keep myself from falling asleep
Important note before we get to me: My friend Aaron Allston just underwent quadruple bypass surgery. His family has set up a blood donation sponsorship. If you are in the Dallas area (or possibly anywhere in Texas? I'm not totally sure how this system works), please check out the information here and donate blood if you can. Forward this to any friends you have in that area. End important message.
So very very tired. I am at work right now for another whole hour and a half and all I want to do it curl up on this floor and fall asleep. I've been describing myself as tired all the time when people ask how I am, but that's a very low-level, background kind of tiredness. This is like YOU NEED TO GO TO BED RIGHT NOW OK? kind of tired. I'm also tired in such a way that trying to do anything productive pushes me over the edge into actual nodding off. Freaking work.
I am mostly caught back up on school work, although this week has been harder than last, which is weird, because there was a lot more stuff in last week. I have just been really tired/lazy/tired. (See if you can guess the theme in this post!)
I haven't been doing very much interesting stuff besides school and varying levels of tiredness -- oh, I got pleurisy! That was a good time, if by a "good time," you mean "felt like slowly having a heart attack over the course of three days until I woke up unable to sit up because of the pain and began crying in levels that rose to hysteria." It turns out that pleurisy is easily treated with massive doses of ibuprofen, so that turned out OK. It's almost totally better, but it sometimes kind of acts up. Also, probably from the fact that I have completely stopped exercising, every time I try to move in any way that's at all strenuous, I end up in some kind of pain. Like the other day I was trying to stretch out my back and ended up straining my shoulder in a new and exciting way. This is going to be fun to try to come back from.
Gah another hour and fifteen minutes can't take this gaaaaaah. Neeeeeeed sleeeeeeep.
