The weekly whatever
Aug. 2nd, 2015 07:18 amI'm up earlier than I wanted to be; I can feel my brain spinning and spinning and coming up just short of blue screen of death. Experience tells me I'm going to crash for several hours this afternoon because of it, and those afternoon crashes are starting to scare me.
On the other hand, I've gotten a lot accomplished. While there are things that I would *like* to accomplish today, there are only 3 things listed under "MUST DO:" pay the bills, create and print a flyer for Gridlock so it can be copied, and knock out another 5K. There's more under "like to do," but the musts are a short list.
The races are becoming... troublesome is not the word, but it's too easy to default to "well, I don't want to deal with the mess in the library and all the thinking that involves, so I'm going to jump on the treadmill." So. There are only 3 miles left to finish Road to Hogwarts, and the run slot for Quest for the Golden Pearl takes all of August. If I put in a 5K today, that's IT, race-wise, until the 22nd and the race slot for Galaxy Run opens up.
The intent is to meet up with friends and crank out that last 5K this morning and basically strip myself of the excuse to not deal with everything else I should be dealing with.
On the other hand, I must say that walking a lot has cured the everlivin' fuck out of my insomnia. Now, if it had just cured it in the night instead of making me fall over like a toy whose battery ran out in the middle of the day as well...
