How are you doing, Emily?
Right now the answer is "manically awesome!"
A few hours the answer was "tired but ok"
Yesterday the answer was "...ok, I guess" with peaks of "manically awesome!"
Most of the last week the answer was "terrible." with lows of catatonic non-responsiveness.
Currently, I'm manically awesome because I'm feelin' pretty on top of the world-- I just finished a paper I started today that I was really worried about and that isn't due for 5 days. Getting it off my plate eliminated half the papers I have due in the next couple weeks-- now I just have the important one...
I'm pretty worried about my mental state(s) as of lately, which have ranged from psychotically bad to psychotically euphoric.
I bought a bike for $60 on Saturday, the guy was really nice, the bike is about as he described it... needs new tires, new brake pads will be needed pretty soon, but other than that a little lube'll fix her all up nice. She's rideable now, except for the flat back tire. It holds air a little while, so I *can* do short rides, to/from 7-11 or some such, but it's not good to ride on a tire with a hole in it. I'm excited for the project. I'm excited to feel like I'm doing something.
I downloaded the new OpenOffice pack today... by "new" I mean more recent than the crappy version of OpenOffice I used to have... so now I have a spreadsheet program on my very own computer! I have to say, I'm a little attached to Exel, but I'll get used to it.
Also, I was vegan for the first week of this month. I think I might make that a monthly thing-- it makes me a lot more aware of the food I'm putting into my body in general and got me thinking a lot about mental attachment to food versus actual need for sustenance. Also, being vegan nearly forces me to eat fruits and vegetables-- I was paying really close attention to my carb/processed sugar intake. It's hard to say how the week was on me, physically and mentally, because I'm tired as fuck, overworked, and trying to dodge the virus that virtually half of campus has right now.
