After a day off yesterday for a stomach bug that I'm still not over, I feel like I have to get a week's worth of work done in one day. Except I don't have one day, because I'm out at a meeting this morning, then singing carols at lunchtime. So it looks like my one day is tomorrow, when I have 3 things in the diary already. Thirty-six hour days would be really useful at this point.
ION:
~ My stomach is fine until I give it food, at which point it decides it doesn't like me any more. This should be interesting, since I have a habit of fainting if I skip meals (or when I don't. It's a thing). On the flip side, I'm definitely going to my Slimming World group next week, although I don't recommend this as a long-term weight-loss strategy.
~ I won something! I've known about it since Monday, but didn't want to say anything in case it wasn't real. Because I never win things. Ever. Except this time, I really did! It's a Sony Pocket Reader, and is very small, sleek and shiny. Right now, I don't think I'm going to keep it - what I *really* want is an iPod touch, since I get all my books for free from Bookmooch and the library, and don't really want to start paying for them! Hopefully selling the Reader should offset the cost of that. But still. I won something!
~ Last night, we finally got ourselves into gear and booked a holiday for January. So from the 5th to the 9th, we will be in Morocco \o/ We're staying in the same place as last year, and managed to get a small discount on the stay, as well as bagging cheap flights. It's mostly to get some sunshine, rather than do anything specific, although we did have a list of things that we didn't get to, so we're going to work our way through that. I was a little unsure about the whole thing, but now it's booked, I'm definitely sure it was the right decision. Sunshine!
~ I had to drop out of
sga_santa thanks to this wretched bug. Since the Yuletide deadline is pretty close and I haven't written a word yet, looks like I might be 4 for 4 on fic failure this year. Go me /o\
~ Assuming I don't pass out in the middle of the carol service, there may be more later. If I do, hope everyone has a good day and I'll catch up soon ;)
