on late boozing and earbleeds

well, i watched more of soul music last night, and somehow managed to convince the kid to come with to have a drink and say goodbye our ex-welfare officer, who left for nepal today.

*ahem* and cute friends *ahem*

we came home and watched some more how i met your mother, then i crashed. i woke up four hours later for a regular, merciless sunday morning.

today was AWEFUL. i spent the entire day dealing with procedural rubbish.
how much actual work did you do today, totalwaste? NOTHING.

we had an hour-long meeting wherein i had to pay attention due to the infrequent participation demanded. i was already a bit tired, and quickly developed a migraine... i struggled to keep my eyes open (i nodded off a couple of times), but the worst was the point when the argument began.

three highly-educated and intelligent high-ranking officers flinging long, complex sentences at each other at high speed, and the only image in my head was of a gatling gun loaded with words, and them blazing in my direction with me having to catch and process in order to survive.

i was surprised when i checked the mirror afterwards to discover that i hadn't been bleeding out my ears.

i wasn't feeling good when i got home - the whole day i've been suffering the pitiful strained muscles that i've just been introduced to, and after visiting the gym to arrange a meeting with a professional i did some quick shopping and came home.

after a long chat with my mum and then a quick salad supper (with some junk-food thrown in), i finished soul music (great series) and made my bed with the new flannel set i bought. fits like a glove, now to find out if it's really comfortable.
