I think being tired like an exhausted pigeon is just my vibe right now. I stayed home all week and just WFH and didn't go anywhere except school drop off until Friday afternoon.

So Thursday was just a long ass day. So much going on at work. I was very tired when things finished. I don't recall what I did but Benton was home cause he was also coughing with his asthma and I did...who knows. I did managed to read through Lore Olympus 6 and 7 so those are off the pile. I also read Black Widow comics by Kelly Thompson that Ari got me for Christmas and OMG was that good. so that is books through 12 of the year. Well behind my goal.

The list thus far:
1) The Gospel of Loki
2) Killer Cocktails
3) The Golden Enclaves
4) Captain Carter: Woman out of Time
5) The Lights of Prague
6) Dark Arts and a Daiguiri
7) Whispers of Death (stopped at 50% complete not finishing)
8) Two Witches and a Whiskey
9) Demon Magic and a Martini
10) Lore Olympus #6
11) Lore Olympus #7
12) Black Widow
13) In Progress: The Alchemist and an Amaretto


There makes it easier than trying to find all of that over the last 5 months.

This weekend was Coronation. I had no other plans but sit and craft and watch. And survive. I had things packed up and laid out and then the morning of I again switched clothes and I'm glad I did. Things were warm except in our portion of the hall. I was not feeling bonita, I was struggling to breath, but we made it out of the house on time and to site and got a nice corner of the hall to sit. My only regret was I didn't bring a cushion for my seat. I did spin a bunch and then knit on mel's socks. I did finish those after coronation while the knights circle was going on. We had a lot of good things during court they announced 2 of the 3 new folks for Order of Mark. Only 1 was on my list. But I understand the others.

Wander made it and that was lovely. I took a photo of Poe, Willa, and Dominique crafting. I didn't get one of Mel, Wander, Ari, and myself doing like wise. Lol. There was lot of filks, lots of laughs and just a good day. Sutton and Celeste are our new crown and things will be different but that is okay. I did get to sit and meet Genevieve's "daughters" and catch up with some Ansteorrans who were there for Genevieve's Laurel. Mel was nice and drove us there and home. I had planned to drive us home but I was tired and I appreciated him driving. We had Willa with us for the drive home. Benton had played boffer with all of teh kids all day and was tired. I finished weaving in ends on mel's socks and took the most stripey picture of my clothes I can remember. I didn't realize stripes was the theme but all of the 14th Century Mafia was in grey and white stripes for Genevieve's elevation. Lol. So I fit right in in my norse clothes.

We got home and I ordered food and Mel went to pick it up. I made a double tiki drink (rum, lime, demerara syrup, maraschino) and we had a nice meal and pretty early bed times. Mel and I did get caught back up on Time Team as they have been digging at Sutton Hoo again and they found the bottom of the Bromswell Bucket and that was neat to see. Mel and Benton had planned on returning to the event Sunday. I was going to see how I was feeling. I woke up tired and my throat was sore.

The wind had picked way up and I was not wanting to risk another week like last week. I masked all of Saturday, only took it off at lunch outside, and then in a very well AC'd cabin. I was still just wiped. So I stayed home. Mel brought me coffee before they left and I dozed for a bit before getting up and playing games for a while before getting dressed and putting pork chops in the crock pot for dinner, and worked on my shawl. I remembered I had a lap desk/table and used that to set my pattern and the knitting etc on while I worked and watched TV. I caught up on some YT before pulling up Episode III. I'd never watched it but with now having finished clone wars I figured I didn't have to watch it in rapt attention. I could be reading knitting pattern charts and placing beads in my knitting. And ugh I did not have .6MM hook that worked for the beads but I did finally remember I had bought superfloss and that works better IMHO per this tutorial .

During the movie I'm glad I've waited to see thing with the clone wars but yeah so painful to watch. The boys got home about an hour before the movie finished. I got dinner finished up by adding in rice and beans into the pot and we had a nummy salsa verde style pork with rice/beans. All in one pot. Mel loved it. Put in frozen crappy cheap pork chops, cook on high and hour without anything, once those had defrosted a bit break apart chops and then add a large can of green enchilada sauce, powdered garlic, other seasonings and cook on low for hours. Add a cup of rice, cook for a while, add two drained cans of black beans. Let the rice cook and and then serve. We had hot sauce to go with it but it didn't really need it.

So I finished up the second chart and got into the Third chart. Only issue I had was I had to place a bead over the area that I had spliced the yarn together and I had to be creative with an extra stitch but I don't think that will be noticeable. But I got into the third chart which was nice. We finished Episode III, convinced the xbox to play the disk with the Theatrical Release of Episode IV. Enjoyed watching that. Benton was not cause "it was fuzzy" and played with our Disney droids. During the later part of teh movie, I heard a noise in the kitchen and saw Willow scurry off after she kicked my Maggie Coffee mug off the counter. Thanks cat. That was my favorite mug. Sighs. But we picked up the pieces and put them in a ziploc. I will see if Ari wants to try to fix it. Finished up the movie and mel was in bed early. He had fought the heavy King's Champion and won. And then fought the C&T tourney and finaled. So he's doing well. (wink) My brain was busy when I tried to calm to my evening routine. I was annoyed with the cat, it was windy and making my head uggy. I finally crawled into bed around 11 and then played on my phone a bit before just turning things off and trying to fall asleep. Mel was dead to the world.

Getting up today I'm still tired but managed to get moving. Benton was on the struggle bus with an allergy flair after being outside all weekend. When we were leaving I went to put coffee in my travel cup and I pulled the lid off and the cup came apart. Bye-bye 10 year old tervis cup. Sighs. I'm now have my old travel cup from a leadership conference in 2014 and I pulled an Ash and Griffin custom Novgorod mug down for coffee. It still sad though.

Well that is the update.

Work was work and I finished early on Friday and sat down an immediately finished the viking age necklace I had been working on and then did a modern one for myself. I wore the modern one when I went out to get my waxing appt.

We had leftovers for dinner and I got my spinning wheel back up and operational. I hadn't spun since September so things were dried out and needed oil and adjustments but I got it up and running. Spicy did take an unhealthy interest in my wheel which I caught in a series of three photos 1, 2, and 3.

She really wants the fiber and keeps running off with the batts or she batts at the bobbin when its not spinning. I have no idea what she's trying but she does it with Mel's wheel too. She's been around spinning wheels since we rescued her and she's sat on my lap while I've been spinning. I just think she wants trouble.

I knit on mel's socks a bit too. I'm about 3 inches from the toe decreases. I went to bed pretty much on time. I slept well. Managed to sleep in for a bit which was nice. The boys went to the dojo early so I managed to make myself some chorizo breakfast tacos, play some video games and relaxed. I got things together and chatted with my cousin Jason while he checked on things at the north house for me. We are going to do a BBQ when we get up there since I haven't seen his girls since they were tiny or non-existent.

I then trundled my stuff off to Grandma's for the Local Yarn Store Day for Spinning day and to support the shop. They also were running an Odyssey of the Mind lemonade stand fundraiser for the kiddos trying to go to nationals. The kids were cute but I didn't need the lemonade but I did drop them a $25 donation.

I spun most of the afternoon on my wheel but I did stand for a while and do my drop spinning...slowly making progress on the purple that has been my SCA spinning. I have just one bump left of the pink I started in Sept on the wheel. My setup at the shop which shows the mug I bought with some fiber cause reasons. If you can't read it it says "Spinning cause knitting wasn't weird enough". which yeah.

Saturday was nice. I was very tired when I got home. It was peoply, even though it was a lot of my people but I did talk to folks who were visiting for LYS day and demo'd drop spinnning for folks too. But I was tired. Got home and vegg'd. We managed to have dinner and watch some TV but I was tuckered I think.

Sunday I woke up not feeling right. I cancelled my blood donation cuase I was just not feeling it. I'd been off my asthma controller for a few days since I couldn't get the order in on the app but figured out I could on the website? So weird but then due to things since covid the pharmacy hours are hard to get into for me to pick up. I thought they were open until 5pm on Saturday but they close at 4pm. Sighs. So I got it picked up on Sunday after I did a bit more spinning. I then headed to my hair cut appt but I'd been having weird dizzy spells. I felt weird when I was at the haircut but got it and did a return at Old Navy. I got home, the boys were playing borderlands and I went to take a nap. I was so tired and my head hurt. I thought it was a migraine and may have been but I slept till well passed 6pm. I got up and made a drink and had popcorn cause that was all that sounded good. I went to bed early and woke up feeling tired and lungs were unhappy. I made it through most of the day and at 3pm I finally just laid down for a nap and woke up at like 6pm Still very tired. I had dinner and then early turn in where I just rested and read until mel came to bed.

Today I'm very tired but and my lungs ache. Took my rescue inhaler when I woke up and let that settle for a while and then the controller. I'm work from home today cause yeah....just bleah. so yeah...ugh.

I'm almost done with #7 book.

Sunday was good and I made good time heading back up to San Jose. I stopped off at "World Famous Garlic World" in Gilroy and got some spice mixes. The drive was nice and took like 30 mins to get to Fillory Yarns. What I didn't know was that it was the Bay Area Yarn Crawl. If I had known that I would have made a different schedule to hit a few more but I made do. They had a few trunk shows including A Needle Runs Through It. Their bags and notions were so cute...I may have overindulged. I also got a set of yarn for a shawl in hot pink/black. I also picked up some berroco for Mel's new hat.

I made my purchases and then headed off to get gas and then hit the Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum. If you know anything about Rosicrucians it didn't get culty until the last exhibit on alchemy. I was running out of time so I made sure to just skip the creepy AI Thoth...cause that isn't effing creepy. And their claims of science is alchemy and how it will be the future...uhm no. But I had a nice time and here are the Sunday Cali.

I got to the airport without any issues and made my way through security. It didn't take too long but the girls in front of me totally didn't do a lot of travel and were a mess. I had plenty of time but I was tired and sore. My heel/ankle were not great, the skin on my heel had started to split Friday at the Mystery House, and it was making me walk funny which then made my knee and ankle unhappy and the Kia Soul and stop/go traffic wasn't teh best for my elevating my ankle etc. anyhoo..I was hurting. I bought some advil (I was out) and hit the Trader Vic's for a cocktail and lunch. They mix a potent cocktail but it was tasty. I got on my flight to Los Vegas and normally its easy but the airport was HOT, I was tired, I hurt and I killed a few hours drinking beers and having tacos. I did get a drunk guy who I watched loose like $6k on a game betting on his phone. The man was way drunk but bought me a shot. The servers were nice and made sure he wasn't been skeevy...he wasn't just drunk. He left for his flight and I had time to chill. I did lose money at the slots which was not my usual but it passed the time. Next time I will not spend 3 hours at that airport. Its too long. The flight to Tucson was okay. I read and started "Whispers of Death" by my friend AJ. Its a bit darker than I'm used to but while its a bit faster in the action than I expect but that is okay. I'll hopefully finish it up this week and get back to the normal TBR pile.

Last week I was tired and run down from the weekend. It was a lot of travel and not sleeping enough etc. Plus work was ugh. So much going on but bob was back from his honey moon and I missed my snark buddy. I had grand plans for the weekend and only managed to hit my waxing appt, haircut, eyebrows. My massage was canceled which sucks cause my knee did a weird snap thingy in the early hours of Saturday. grump. I did get the bathroom cleaned up and the front room/family room decluttered of my stuff. The boys did the same so it helped. Mel got the carpets all scraped and then vacuumed. I was just so tired. Sunday I still had the headahce I've had most of the week and now its yellow season here. So not surprising it was a migraine and I took a 3 hour nap and felt kinda better? I could just sleep for a week right now. Stoopid Spring. But I will attempt to get my ass back to the gym and doing things if my body stops revolting.

Boo hiss....

Last week was way too many work annoyances and allergy crap.  Giving blood always makes me more allergy issued and with the palo verdes blooming and working outside for the POD its been a bit rough.  My Wednesday meant I was at my 2 weeks from second shot. It feels great and Friday was my birthday so I took the day off and bummed around.  I had two errands to run and I got my eyebrows waxed and my toes done.  Its been well over a year for that.  OMG felt so good.  I also got Ari a fancy coffee and delivered it and an apple fritter.  So all good.  I then finished up my errands dropped off groceries with the boys and went off to dink around 4th Avenue.  Bought a few things from local merchants and then went to the Midtown Mercantile and found a neat pickle fork and a German pudding like this (: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B009J9BF3O/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_TH0TG99A3NCGN4X3DQK0 ) and then i got us take away sushi which was sooo good. OMG I've been not getting take away sushi and I have regret.  Its online ordering and easy as pie to get.

Got home and was dogged tired.  I had a few drinks using my new bar tools that Mel got me from Barfly by Mercer.

Woot.

Mel made me a blueberry lime dairy free cake but he broke the whipped non-dairy cream frosting. But it was tasty with cocowhip.

I got spoiled this year.  Willa got me BFL fiber in a really pretty green called Jurassic; Ari got me a beautiful vintage scarft, a laurel pendant, a GoT Megablocks dragon egg and a pretty boar; Rob and Becca got me a new Xbox controller in bright red; danabren got me a lift for my computer monitors which I need to put together and mel got me a two cup shaker, two different jiggers, a combo stir spoon/muddler, a bitters in glass and a glass cocktail cup for stirring drinks.  They are all but the glass in a darkened stainless steel.  

Saturday I was up for relaxing and Benton went to Paul's to play with Skylar after the dojo and I got to watch TV all by myself. Then I went to pick him up and stayed hanging out for a nice nature walk and some time with the boys. Benton got to rid a scooter and learn a bit on how to ride a skateboard.  

Sunday I got up before everyone else and went to the POD and I worked at Registration this time. I didn't run the ipads just verified info and handed out forms but it was really good time.  Ran and errand when I was done and then just fell into a stupor when I got home. I was reading and then hung out in the hammock. I had forgot my inhaler and I talked a lot while I was on duty.  I was just done.  I was kinda lazy until dinner and then we watched a bit of YT and then I got to use my new controller to sit and play Graveyard Keeper which is like Stardew Valley but grim.  I like it but the mechanics are different than Stardew Valley so I was stuck a bit after 3 hiours but I read some today and its all good.

The only weird thing is I've been sleeping really crappy. Not sure if its allergies?  Work is annoying but not really stressful  but I think its still all of this crap with the plague still going and while my county is doing good but what about everywhere else?   Dunno, we shall see.

Well, last week I pondered on the yellow haze in Tucson and well it took me down hard. I managed to make it through 1/2 a day at work on Thursday and was home the rest of the week working from home off and on as my brain was really not making good connections. I did go to the doctor but he stated that I was not infected just had an "impressive" case of allergic rhinitis. So, I've been really good friends with my netipot, benedryl, sudafed etc. It made for an interesting weekend for being outside at SCA events but after 1.5 days of good rest and lots of meds I did okay on Saturday and did really well on Sunday.

Saturday was the Boar-onial A&S competition. We gave out an AoA to Annika and 2 Golden Blades, one to William Lochridge and one in absentia to Baba. We had another planned but we will have to catch up with that person at 40 year.

My student, swordmage won with very, very good scores the Championship!!!! YAYA!!!!! Lady Arianna Hunter got best of Novice, Populace and Laurel's choice!!!!

Sunday we had breakfast with lferion and then headed out to Thunderbolt Tourney in Mons. We all had a great time. We got roses (made of duct tape) for the tourney prizes, got to watch the "wheel of misfortune" make the tourney fun, Benton got to get really, really dirty and snuggled up with Mel and I throughout the day because he was still tired from the day before where he didn't nap but had fun including a mud puddle. I also got a dozen tiger stripe which is so pretty from one of the families. We headed out after the auction and then home. Benton was asleep very quickly after getting in the car. We got back to the house and he got a bath when we got home and then we all headed out for family dinner at Chili's.

It was a great weekend and only towards the end of the day was I really starting to drag and everything felt puffy. The allergy meds are making me swell a bit but I'm coping. We headed to bed uber early.

Saturday night I managed to finally finish the vegetable book. It was not the historical book I needed for SCA research. It was put together in a very higgly-piggly fashion that I could not figure out. I'm just not happy with the book but I'll cope. It was #12. Now I'm in Magic at the Gates by Devon Monk which is back to supernatural schlock which is just fine by me in my allergy riddled state.

I'm doing okay this morning minus just wanting more sleep. I did not do my dose of benadryl last night but my ribs hurt...not sure what that means if I've got stuff out from wearing a crown for two days or if its my allergies. Hoping to hit the gym even with how I'm feeling to just get the blood moving and maybe get the swelling down on my limbs.

Friday was a weird day. My headache was pretty much gone but I was still feeling the affects of it. I was tired and rested when I got home on Friday. Mel hit the antiques store and the asian market. I rested and knitted which was good. The gaming group came over and we had a nice evening of violence...though we kinda thwarted an attack versus getting into one which is pretty good actually.

Saturday dawned okay. I was tired and laid in bed finishing #14 for the year Nightlife by Rob Thurman. At first I was rather annoyed at the abrupt change in style of writing midway through the book..thinking back on it...wow, the author had to make some serious changes in his style to get it to work well and it did. It was very into the characters head and sometimes this works, sometimes it doesn't. This time it did. After I had a shower I headed of to WWKIP day. The Tucson knitting groups were meeting at Beyond Bread and we had a nice time. I got to meet folks from ravelery and knit and it was good.

Got home and mel and I then headed to Tom's for pre-luau party time with the household. I got in my swimsuit and enjoyed the pool and the sun and some good drinks before the kids arrived and took over the pool. Mel enjoyed rough housing with the kids and throwing them around. I hung out and chatted and then knit up in the house chatting with folks until it was time to go. Mel was pretty tispsy when we got home and he went straight to bed. I started in on Dead and Gone by Charlaine Harris. I'm a book behind in the series but this one was interesting. I think it was better written than the last one and the story was entertaining...brutal but entertaining. I got to sleep about 1am or so though my breathing was off. I almost got my inhaler but didn't probably should have.

Sunday was groggy getting up but I managed. I was glad I had had a shower before bed since I felt clean but stuff up and my throat was all craggy sounding. Had a good breakfast with the family at Joe's, teased Joe's youngest a lot about being spoiled and then it was home to work on things. I was tired and didn't feel great. I managed to get the studio to almost working condition. I chatted with my mom. My step-sis gretchen had to have an emergency surgery so I was getting an update. She is doing really well and that is a good thing. Mel played with lego's and played video games all day. Which for him is the perfect way to spend your b-day. I ended up crawling back into bed and slept and read all afternoon to early evening. I finished #14 Dead and Gone and then read Undone by Rachel Caine as number 15. Hoping I can get more books in this year but we shall see. This AM the allergies are not as bad. My throat is still a bit craggy but I'm trying to drink coffee and keep my water fluid up too.

Need to get the house picked up for scribble and for my peace of mind. When the house gets cluttered I can't work on projects well. I need to get it decluttered and picked up and cleaned to get things working well in that arena. Deadlines are approaching on the horizon and I need to have that all working well. Tonight I will sketch out the A&S scroll and then I will work on calligraphy. Lots to do. I hope to be cutting out fabric tomorrow so I can be sewing thursday and friday. All good and doable if I can keep on task and get the house in order.

Snuffly was an understatement. I used tissues at work when I was at my desk and I filled up half of my wastebin. Bleah. On the factory floor I was miserable and my little hanky got filled pretty quick. The assembler I was working with told me to go home since I looked so miserable. I felt miserable but my mind was working...I just sounded dumb. I decided that home to rest would be better than being a snotty nose at the gym. Got home, had to call the doc to return a call and then snuggled up with a book on the couch.

I slept about an hour. Tati came over and mel and I got dinner on for us. I did sweet corn on the grill for the first time. Its nummy but it takes some managing. I had to keep poking at it which is annoying. I'm not playing medieval playstation. But the hassle was worth it. Had a nice dinner and just relaxed watching tv with family. It had been a long time since we had dinner with Tati and just hung out. I managed to get part 3 of gift 2 almost done and should be able to finish that tonight which just leaves putting closures on all 3 before that project is done and I can start on the blankie. I also need to continue sketching on the scroll stuff and I think I'll be ready for more of that on thursday night. That will leave the weekend for blanket work and I'm good with that.

Went to bed on time and I slept okay. I'm still stuffy. But way better than yesterday. I hope to hit the gym tonight and just push out some reps and then head to knit night and then out to a dinner. Should be good. If I'm not too tired. We shall see.

Work was odd. I spent most of the day unpacking and re-orging my cube multiple times. I have about 4 cabinets of stuff I'm trying to fit into 2 and its not been fun. I think most of the desk toys will get tossed or brought home. Did manage to get another monitor which is nice but it took me a while to get the monitors set to what display I wanted. By the end of the day I was tired and my allergies were fighting through the claritin I took under duress that morning. I was miserable when I woke up and took one. All of the time at the park and lack of sleep wasn't good.

It got through most of the day okay though all of the dust kick up in my cube from me rearranging. I came home a bit early to defeat the laundry hydra and continue to clean up the house. I also ended up taking an hour nap and after I woke up the drugs really weren't working. Meh. Got the front room picked up and vacuumed it and the family room and I dusted the entertainment center. I got the bathroom half cleaned and then folks started arriving. Oh, well. I can do more tonight. I need to wash rugs and mops floors. I did get all of the laundry done and I got the text on the scroll I need to turn in for Saturday. It was hard though...my brain was done. Ari was having similar issues and we realized she hasn't knit anything in 2 days. Poor girl. But once I finished the scroll, her brain turned on and things were good. Had a really nice scribble, small but good. I got rid of half of my old garb stash to icka and Elsa. I think the rest will go to saint felix.

I was a good monkey, or maybe not, and took some benedryl to sleep and help with the allergies. I got to bed a bit late after shutting down the house but I slept well. The girls were snuggly. I did not want to get out of bed this AM. It was comfy and now I'm pretty much in the same place as yesterday AM. Yeah, miserable on the drugs or off. I have hopes of fighting at practice tonight but it will all depend on how I feel after the day, hopefully hitting the gym and then after.

So, hopefully today goes quickly. I have some phone calls and some hardware to inspect. The hardware will be later today. I have to sit in the lab and do that so that would be a good time.

Well, its monday again and boy is it striking with a vengeance. I did not sleep well and I think part of that was soreness, part of it was my brain being on and part of it was just oddness in general. Course I also got some skeeter bites during the night that don't make me happy either...bleah, I hate skeeters.

The rest of the day sunday it was hard to motivate to work on things I needed to. I watched tv, relaxed, napped and worked on presents. I also managed to get my studio cleaned up, fabric pulled for a few outfits and got my new wrap around hangerrock pattern figured out. Its a nice rosey pink and I need to figure out what to trim it in. Hopefully I'll have that figured out today so I can work on the handwork and get it ready to wear for A&S. I also plan on getting other stuff cut out so I can have new stuff by the time the reign starts which will be nice.

My allergies aren't happy with me this morning. Guess I don't get to skip meds much anymore...sighs. I was hoping. Here's to hoping things kick in soon.

Today at work is going to be *fun*, since I have lots of paperwork to do. But I will prevail over the mountain of red tape and triumph in the face of change notices, variances and their ilk!

Well, yesterday was exciting. I think I found a correlation in our data behind our failures. We shall see how that pans out but it might be one of those statistics where don't buy a car built on Monday or Friday type of things. Not sure. Got home a bit late than the regular time. But mel was in a tail spin and had to replace the cooler pump again. Not a happy guy. I finished cleaning the grill and got dressed before he got home. We got things loaded up in both vehicles and mel pulled out while I waited for richard to come and pick up the grill. Got to the park things were setting up and everything fell into place. It was a muggy night, no wind to speak of and quite warm. Lots of fighters on on three erics were auctioned off.

I didn't do too bad on the list at least in my opinion. I legged quite a few, killed two and paid attention to all of the good things we've been working on. Morgan and I got to talk after our fights and I was much improved from my zombie performance last week. About half way through the night my eyes started bothering me from the sweat and then they got all allergy icky from me rubbing them. I stopped after taking a stout arm shot, being given my arm back and then getting hit there again and across the shoulder by Sir Gavin. My eyes were done and after trying to cool them down, drops etc they were not happy. If it was normal FP night I'd have just packed up and gone home but the tourney still had about 20mins and then there was court. I got my stuff packed up and chatting with folks and was miserable.

I left very shortly after court ended. I drove home one eyed and blurry, got home, took the contacts out and things were kinda better. Got the girls fed, got a protein shake and then got a very nice shower. Got out of the shower and marveled at the glory my arm/shoulder is gonna be and then crawled into bed. Mel got home while I was trying to read...btw, Assassination Vacation is marvelous. I went straight to sleep when he climbed in the shower. My eye pack wasn't working very well.

This morning things were still blurry and its hard to focus using both of my eyes. I'd have stayed home but I have charts to make for tomorrow's meetings. It will probably be an early day though...I'm not sure how much I've got in me when I'm not seeing clearly...and another few hours of sleep would have been much more curative I think. We shall see.
