the_eggwhiteWell, I was almost human by about 8pm last night... although I was still really quite tired. Still... here's a rundown:
I'd been in work on Monday, and went home feeling fine. by about 10pm I was feeling a bit off, and by midnight I was starting into the sparkly, blobby disorienting stage of a migraine. By about 6am, I'd still not slept but the migraine was dropping off somewhat, so I tried (and failed) to get some sleep. It's difficult to go to sleep when it's starting to get light outside and when everybody else is getting up. I eventually gave up on trying to get any sleep at around 11:30, at which point I thought I'd try to get some work done. Bad idea.
I managed about an hour and a half, at which point I realised that every time I tried to sit at a computer screen, my head started to throb and I lost the ability to keep my eyes focussed. So I downgraded my "late start, working from home" to an "off sick" and gave up for the day. I eventually managed to get a couple of hours sleep mid afternoon. As is traditional, I wasn't trying to sleep at the time, and just nodded off on the sofa in the front room. I woke up again a bit before 5pm with a sore neck from being propped up in a really odd way...
Since I was feeling a bit better after that and after a bit of a rest, and since I already had pancake ingredients, I made pancakes for myself and my housemates. There's plenty of batter left, so I'll probably have more tonight.
As a result of the weird day, I went to bed earlier than usual, so naturally woke up early this morning. Rather than hanging around at home, I came in to work a bit early as there's load I need to be getting done, some of which needs to be done first thing this morning. I thought I'd give myself a little more "first thing" to play with.
Now I just need somebody who knows the current state of play to arrive... which, in a fit of appropriate timing, they just have, so I'll be getting on with things shortly.
