I warned my roommates that today I would be extremely irritable. I was doing overtime with studying for an exam and preparing for a presentation. And then after all of that stress, would have to sit down to write three papers...all due in the next three days

I haven't really been able to say much to all that is going on partly because I've been away and partly because you post erratically :p, but I think what you are going through is not bad or abnormal. Grieving takes time. Two weeks is not abnormal, and you are still pulling through, so you should be proud of yourself for keeping things together.

Hah! XD I didn't mean to disappear from lj, but it kind of just happened. Though I have been working on a post since following the funeral...but haven't been able to finish it and I found I didn't have anything else to say...

I actually honestly think the two key things to pushing me are 1) dressing nicely, and 2) moving my body in forgotten ways.

This entire semester I've dressed so down...partly because of the weather and partly because I no longer have time to spend on my physical presentation. It was warm enough, and I needed to dress the part for my presentation, but I felt the transformation take place...and getting to move around in my new persona was icing on the cake.

Only one thing left now: getting sleep.

And I've got a lot of work ahead of me...so that might have to wait...
