Thursday Weather: Sunny again! Please keep this up, February. You're getting the hang of it!
1. I'm on the mend from the acute exhaustion, which is a relief. All my energy levels are still too low, and I've been in bed before 9 every night, but at least it's helping somewhat. The worst is when it doesn't. I'm having a more relaxed week from Whole 30, which will also be contributing, but you can't keep that kind of discipline up all the time when it's not a life-sustaining necessity. So a week off for the sake of sanity, then back on it next week.
2. Black Panther tonight! In the middle of Half Term! This may have been a tactical error!
3. I got a reminder this morning that my estimation of my competence falls vastly short of other people's. It's amazing how dangerous a good education is for making you sound like you know more than you do. As a result, I was approached to see if I'm interested in taking on a big and very public role. It's something that had been mentioned to me a while ago, and to which I'd already decided I'd say no, but even so, it was a bit of a boost to the ego to be asked. There's still too much to be done inside my existing job, and I don't feel I have a good enough grasp on the bigger picture. Maybe in a few year's time, but for the moment, I know my limits.
4. I really want to get writing again, but haven't been feeling drawn to any particular material this year. Which is ironic, considering how much I enjoyed the Snowflake Challenge. Maybe I just burned out during it, which is something I tend to do. With new Jessica Jones coming in early March, I think I'll want to do something with that, but for now, I've decided to try and get a Genprompt Bingo line with Rivers of London, using old Yuletide prompts to kickstart me.
5. To that end, any Rivers of London fic readers out there? And anyone want to vote for what I should write first? Or anyone want me to take one of the "prompts" in a different direction? I'm open to prompts/suggestions at this point!
