On computers, toys and muggy weather
Jul. 22nd, 2011 08:53 pmUgh, it's a grey, horribly muggy day and I dragged myself into work despite a bad headache just so that I could have air-conditioning. I suspect that the headache (which started on Wednesday, double ugh) is due to the barometer and unfortunately last night's massive thunderstorm seems to have made things worse rather than better.
Can we please have some warm, clear days now? I'm done with oppressive and muggy. My poor head will thank you.
After work tonight, I am taking Mum out to test-drive some Kobos. I like playing with toys :-D
Also, I now have the money saved for an iPad but I'm holding out until my birthday later this year. That way it will come pre-installed with iOS5 and I won't feel guilty for spending money on new gadgets. It's a birthday present! To me!
( Cut for geeky rambles )
Ack, this is not something that I need to think about yet. Quit worrying at it, brain.
I'm worrying at everything right now. My brain won't turn off. It's very annoying. I'm pretty sure that a large part of it is the prednisone (I seem to get more anxious the higher my dose) and perhaps the reaction from being ill for so long with several set-backs, but it's really frustrating. I'd just like to relax a bit and stop worrying about everything around me!
Ugh. Maybe I should look into getting a massage or something, work some of the tension out of my shoulders and neck and then I might not feel so tense all the time and it will magically communicate to my brain that we don't need to be hyper-alert worried 24/7.
Anyway, it's the weekend and I intend to relax a bit, read a bit and generally enjoy myself without rushing around. I may even spare an hour to sort through some paperwork tomorrow so that I can feel slightly useful as well.
Mostly, I just want to nap and read. Although there is the final part of the Tour to watch and the race has been incredibly exciting, so some of my time may be spend in front of the TV. Oh, my life is so hard sometimes :-D
