T Minus 5 Days

Aug 31, 2013 11:01

This week, I took a class that my boss was teaching, which was three days (it went from Tuesday to Thursday) and had to deal with how to present positive feedback and how to manage a classroom environment as a trainer. It basically meant three days of being in a classroom with four other students instead of closed off in my office, which took a lot of mental and emotional energy because I’m kind of a misanthrope if you let me be. I passed the class, mercifully, and even picked up a few things, which was fun, but the downside was that for the past week, I’ve been exhausted.

It didn’t help that I didn’t get much sleep Monday night after getting my Big Bang fic turned in and was sort of running on fumes on Tuesday. Getting home on Tuesday involved nuking a meal I forgot to eat over the weekend (it’s a regular thing on a deadline), crawling straight into bed, and staying there, facedown, for eleven hours. I’ve somewhat recuperated but everything being in flux means that my equilibrium is off balance and I don’t like it, but chances are, I’m not going to get back to normal any time before the end of, you know, September, so I might as well deal.

Writing-wise, you’ll see some Chuck fic from me this week and hopefully my massive Avengers journalism AU, which I hope I can post before I leave. I made homemade shawarma (chicken) last night and we watched the movie again, spending more time giggling at jokes borne from Tumblr than the dialogue itself. So hopefully that should launch me back into writing Clint and Natasha again.

I leave on Thursday! Let me know if you want a postcard.
