In which there is stuff

I get more done between 8.30 and 11 than I do for the rest of the day, I swear. It's almost lunchtime and I have huge piles of stuff and huge piles of meh. Maybe it's the rain, but I'm just feeling restless and moody for no particular reason. This is not acceptable when I have lots of work, most of which is already overdue.

On the plus side, I work in a place where the fact that I am typing with a small toy pig cradled in my arms doesn't raise any eyebrows. So it's not all bad. And the pig is very comforting.

Right now I would like some real coffee, some no-fat chips, a blanket and a new brain. I am going to have to manage with the pig, a glass of water, the prospect of burgers and a pile of Indian law books which are covered in dust. *sigh*

What do you guys listen to while you're working? I usually go for Radio 4, but it's not helping today. I'm contemplating my Queen playlist, but I can't settle to that either. Maybe it's me.

Right, this my little list for today, slightly less comprehensive than usual, but hopefully actually achievable.

~ Receive all the Indian books
~ Transcribe Podtour
~ Transcribe Donut's beta
~ Check all the orders are placed

That's not too bad. Oh, I need to add a fifth:

~ Do not eat all the cakes in the staff room. This is important.
