I consider myself to be in fairly good shape. I work out on a regular basis and do quite a bit of yoga, yet I'm still totally exhausted from the run I went on with L this morning. Even my knees are sore and that never happens! I so don't feel like doing any work for uni, but I guess I'll have to since the deadline is next week and I haven't even finished my first draft. Besides, I decided that this year, I wouldn't hand stuff in so late...Speaking of late, I have fanfic and a movie review to write, but first I'm going to check out Murder City. Although I'm already getting frustrated with the camera work and I've only seen five minutes of it so far :-/

Somehow, despite add meds and caffeine, I haven't managed to really wake up yet today. Since it really wasn't a late night last night - all I did was go to group and to bed pretty much soon after returning. I was somewhat rudely woken by L (the one with the report) just before 7 a.m. this morning because she needed me to print out an essay. When I asked her why she hadn't done that the previous night at some of the public printers, she admitted that she couldn't figure it out (I installed OpenOffice on her new laptop and she apparently didn't know which format to save it under). I asked her why she didn't ask me about it yesterday afternoon or yesterday evening, but she was right in that I was asleep during the former and out for the latter. Apparently I'm harder to get hold of than I thought :-) I have been very tired the last few days. At first, with my meds all in a mess, I couldn't sleep at all, now I can't seem to stay awake for more than a few hours at a stretch.

...before there were computers?

My access to the internet and to computers has been very sporadic the last few days. L is still writing her report on my laptop and it seems like she has managed not only to wreck WORD, but also to mess up my firewall :-( The deadline for her report has been moved back a few days, but I don't think I was very subtle when I stressed that I expect to have the laptop to myself again on Monday.

No laptop also means (mostly) no fic, no movies on DVD and no TV. I did write a short SGA piece based on a prompt that was posted to a mailing list and will post to my fic journal once I get things sorted.

Also, I have a headache that could turn into a migraine and it wouldn't be the first this week. All ín all, I had better weeks than this one. I think I'm going to lie down now.

Still no Laptop :-( I really hope she manages to finish that report soon!

Because I have some work due, too. I thought I was done with most of the next s342 paper when I realized that I had made a mistake with the units and have to do all the calculations again. Not looking forward to that, but at least I noticed before handing it in.

Dear self,

you really, really should know better than to let someone borrow your laptop, no matter how well you know them. And if you do decided to let someone use your precious laptop, at least ask how long they will be needing it for. Don't just assume that 'typing a report' means that the report really is already written and just needs to be typed up. Also, don't assume that everyone knows how to use a word processor and won't come running to you with questions while you're trying to get some work done.

Sincerely,

Illman
