Monday weather report: Drippy
1. It was one of those weekends where I just couldn't get my brain to connect to the world, so although we got things done, I still feel like I largely wasted time. Being impressively ill on Saturday night/Sunday morning didn't help, and I couldn't sleep last night, so am still blurry today. I'm fighting not to go mad on the coffee front, because ( Read more... ) -

Thursday Weather: Turned out sunny in the end, but so cold.
1. To my delight, my brain coped very well with the 3D film last night. It took about 15 minutes for things to sort themselves out, but after that, I sort of forgot what was going on. The only thing I did notice was that you're more aware of the blurry background than in 2D, which I found distracting. I was glad to have seen the film before, and ( Read more... ) -
Wednesday Weather: Disappointingly Februaryish
1. I'm making labels for our shelves to encourage students to let us know if they "haven't found what they're looking for". I will have U2 stuck in my head for the rest of the day.
2. I'm seeing Black Panther in 3D tonight \o/ The glasses fit over my glasses pretty well, and aren't made of cardboard, so I'm quietly hopeful.
3. What I'm readingI ( Read more... ) -
Monday Weather: Grey and cold and more grey. And wet.
1. This weekend, I learned just how heavy washing for 2 people for 2 weeks is. Hint: very, especially when wet. On the plus side, we're now good for another fortnight, which is fine, because we might not get the machine repaired until next week. Thank goodness for friends and family ( Read more... ) -
Black Panther reaction [see icon]
I couldn't sleep last night after seeing Black Panther, because my brain was just racing. Go and see this film if you can, people. It's worth every minute.
I also find it striking that in Phase 3, Marvel have got the guts at last to make films that are different. Thor Ragnarok has its own distinct tone. I haven't seen it, but I understand that ( Read more... ) -
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 ( Read more... ) -
Wednesday Weather: On the turn from cold and bright to cold and damp. Not an improvement
Thanks for the kind thoughts, folks. I've had 2 good nights of sleep, which make a huge difference to the immediate crisis. I also made it to Pilates last night, although the effort of will nearly broke me. It was worth it, though, because I always feel better afterwards ( Read more... ) -
Monday Weather: Cold, bright and sunny. And Cold. Did I mention cold?
