floatingleafIt's HOT, and I feel exhausted. And lazy. And entirely devoid of any motivation to be productive in any way whatsoever. Woke up with a migraine today. Don't know why. Could be dehydration, because I'm not necessarily drinking more water than usual, and in this tropical weather I probably should. Or it could be because I stayed up too late both Friday and Saturday. Just because I theoretically CAN sleep in longer on the weekend, doesn't mean my body actually WILL be willing to sleep past 6 a.m.:/ Yesterday, it wasn't. Today it was, but mostly because I felt like crap and needed painkillers. I REALLY must have a very regular sleeping schedule. As in, bedtime at 11:00 EVERY DAY, no matter what. That way, even if I wake up during the night to go to the loo (which I always do, at least once), I STILL get a decent amount of sleep by 6 a.m. It seems quite simple in theory, but somehow never happens. *sigh*
Or it could be just because I don't tolerate the heat quite as well as I thought I did. I always say I am much more bothered by the cold - but this weekend I've just felt so utterly drained I don't know anymore. Yesterday I got home from my chiropractic appointment (which involved a 30-minute walk in the blazing midday sun) and simply collapsed like a rag doll. I lay flat on the sofa for about two hours before I was able to drag myself out to the grocery store. And then I collapsed again. And today I didn't properly get up till late in the afternoon. It probably doesn't help that I am barely able to bring the temperature in my apartment down to a tolerable level. I know I complain about the freezing A/C at work - but spending most of the day in a well air-conditioned place helps me endure the toasty evenings at home. On weekends, I am basically feeling toasty all the time. I mean, I am perfectly fine lying down with the fan on - but when it comes to actually getting up and doing something, it's not so cool anymore (pun intended).
That said, I have been graced with unexpected visitation from my wayward muses. I thought they were gone forever, but apparently not. For the past 2-3 weeks or so, I have been working on a new A/L ficlet. I didn't want to mention it here until it was finished - in case that never happened - but now I think it's almost done. *knocks on wood* It's very much my "typical fare", for those few who might still be interested. It's actually kind of amazing that I am still able to keep reworking the same topic after so many years - paraphrasing myself ad infinitum, as it were.:P I think that's called obsession.:D But true love never dies, they say - and it is a saying that applies to my life in a myriad of ways. And I'll probably continue drawing from this endless source of inspiration in some way for another handful of years, even if no-one cares to read it anymore...
