Derailed Hours (D)

Gainesville

The day had such a promising start: up in time to get everything done, even the sheets changed, before getting to work at a halfway decent hour. Alas, after less than an hour, I got whacked with a killer sinus/migraine headache, and it was a sick-making one. I struggled to keep working for another hour, but finally had to have Bill take me home when he got out of meetings around noon. Haven't had one this bad in several years. As usual, a couple hours of sleep is the only thing that helps at all.

Felt enough better tonight to go ahead with the planned meal-- a rather uninspiring sweet and sour pork. Folded a big load of Bill's Big Whites, and am waiting for towels to come out of the dryer (both bathrooms nicely done). IOW, everything on schedule except work and CAD. I've got plenty of slack built in for the paper, but sometimes I wonder if I'm going to make it through another seven months. It gets harder and harder, like a mountain that gets steeper as you near the summit. Is it even worth it, I wonder.

'Nuffa that. Here's some 1952-Fu:
