o stressoramaaaaa
urgh. it's been one of those weeks, you know? I tend to have quite a simple wee mind, can easily gauge how stressed i am by whether I can hearing screaming in my head.
(this is possibly something only I do. I'm not mental, promise.)
anyway, not much screaming this week, but if I clear my head of all rational thought (easily done) then I can just hear a sort of whimpering. hmmm. not bad. about a 6 on the stressorama scale.
the palpitations aren't great, though. might lay off the caffeine. need it to function, though. sigh.
yeah, so not doing any work sort of caught up with me, in that my paper draft is now 2 weeks later than it was already (oops) and is still not really written. I'm stuck on results. trying to compress 4 tables into one, and microsoft word is being a tit. you know when it just will not behave? yessssss. it's doing that. spent about 15 minutes trying to get one table into landscape view, when it insisted on doing it to the papers above and below this table as well. finally sorted. i'm not touching it again. i fear a fair number of my woes stem from user error, but wtf. stupid microsoft. easier to blame them.
I thought it was tuesday yesterday. bit of a shock when realised it was friday. had traditional friday brewski with fun half of ward group (i say fun...I mean alcoholic), then went home and twitched a lot, glaring at all these stupid results. then watched american psycho. felt confused. possibly not a great stress reliever, that film. really rather fucking funny though.
have run out of food money for the month. unfortunate. have a good supply of lentils, soup and chopped tomatoes, so should last until october. gas bill, on other hand, not looking so friendly. oh crap. i am tempted to extend my overdraft, but am too scared of banks at moment to phone up. wtf, stock markets? i donnnnnnn't uuuuuuuuunderstand. going to call up bff who has cambridge economics degree and ask her to explain it all.
hmmm. grrrrr. probably shouldn't have wasted my money on kitsune maison compilations, but hohohoho have been dancing around like a motherfucker today! definitely a stress reliever. i do rather love the yelle remix. fun fun fun.
right. okay. plan. i made a plan today. woot woot.
need to prune results, methods and intro. need to finish last section of methods. need a discussion. need references. need abstract. must not forget abstract.
also need to check emails. haven't done that properly all week.
in down time, the book idea that has been assaulting my brain all week (come back sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep i miss you i do!) needs written down. and plotted. and jesus, it is lovely to fantasise about my fabulous future as a novelist who warps children's minds (in a nice way, though) instead of focusing on dreadicine.
also need to plan elective. currently looking up things in south africa, might be able to score a placement that spends time in cape town and out in townships. at same time, might want to think up an area of research for elective. mmm. audits for the win.
also must not forget to do project work on child and adolescent psychiatry for next week. and learn how to take a mental health history. fucksies.
bit of revision probably worth doing, too.
oh dear.
on plus side, PETER! CARLOS! aaaaah, lovely! aaaaaaaaaah! don't look back in anger? some strange shit about futures? microphone sharing? together again? LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
must. focus. do. not. want. to. but pete and carl are just making my week fucking almighty, really, what lovely lovely times
