Broken?

I feel like I may be on my way out of the Doldrums. Maybe. Right now, it's somewhat hard to say since I have a persistent lingering visual headache that seems to be a holdout from the game of Painkiller that I was playing earlier. That left me feeling vaguely nauseous. I'm also really tired, which is no great surprise. Guess I'l have to see how I feel in the morning in order to be able to decide if this little spell is over, or is just winding up to hit me again a little harder. I'm hoping for the former and not the latter. The way this whole thing feels like it almost snapped while I was at work does make me wonder if I was in the process of coming down with something, which then just had a synergistic effect with the downer. To early to call yet, I think.

Pink and teal for Jeweltiger tonight. Not bad at all.

From the looks of things, I can only hope that Jaws continues to spill crystal violet all over the place.

No holiday list exists outside of my brain, and very little of one even exists there.

Crap Monday

This has not been a good couple of days. All I feel like doing is staying in bed, which is not a good sign. It's not the restful, 'I have a day off and I'm not getting out of bed' kinda thing, it's more like an 'I don't have the energy to be interested in functioning' kinda thing. Nothing even sounds remotely engaging, and work is looming on the horizon, which will make for a looong day. I could just crawl under the desk right now and go to sleep. I'm starting to pace and pull at my hair again, and even naked time seems like way too much effort. Hopefully this will pass. Otherwise, it won't be long before winter becomes intolerable.
