lagilman: coffee or die (caffeine)
There's something I need to do today. I know it's important. I just can't remember what the hell it is. This is what happens when I have a period of social frivolity. My brain stops working.

Meanwhile, I am feeling indulgent and lazy. Overnight Houseguest and I went out for breakfast, to a place I hadn't been before (because The Pantry was closed) and I had a wonderfully greasy breakfast and a huge coffee and then we walked back in the nicely brisk air, and rather than being invigorated I have been craving a nap ever since.

Naps are for people who actually Get Shit Done. I aspire to be one of those people very soon now.

*puts in dvd of Dresden Files and pours some caffeine*

pending for the week:
shit I gotta do )
lagilman: coffee or die (brain.  hurts.)
I am a total waste of meat today.

I've tried to work on four different projects. No go. No juice at all. I can't even read critically for the line edit.

I hereby declare this Give Myself a Break Day.

This does not, alas, mean that I don't get to do any work. I have cleaned, and made some appointments. There's a spreadsheet that needs to be updated, and bills to be paid, and laundry to be done, and all that other stuff that doesn't require any sort of creative or critical thinking.

But, damn it, I hate it when I can't hit my mark.


ETA: it was pointed out to me that I put in billable hours this morning, before breakfast. So it's not a total write-off. But am still cranky.
ETA2: and, after giving myself permission to Not Accomplish, my brain decided to come back on-line and play nice for a few hours after dinner. Now it wants to gogogo when my body (having gotten exercise and activity) wants to sleepsleepsleep. Figures.
