Either I'm running a low grade fever or my shower was too hot this morning. Uhg. Coupled with the sneeze fits in the morning the past couple days, feels ominous.
A ghost? What's the deal? Is every frat on this campus haunted? And if so, why do people keep coming to these parties, cause it's not the snacks.

Oh no! I was feeling vaguely feverish yesterday afternoon and hoping I don't get sick. I guess it's irrational to suppose that if someone I spend time with online every day gets sick I'm more likely to, but that is where my mind goes...

I am back at work after 6 days off. I have NO IDEA what I was doing when I left.

It'll come back to you. Or maybe it doesn't matter.
I feel good about this morning's swim, I was able to keep to my training program. Unfortunately, that puts me on pace to be ready for my triathlon in October instead of early September when it is actually happening. No word yet from the organizers about whether I can move my registration (there is , fortuitously enough, another triathlon in October, so that might work out fine for me).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Try not to get sick, people!

On Jesse's recommendation, watched a "Going Deep" last night - Shoelaces. I finally think I've mastered that tying a shoe in one move thingy, thanks to David Rees (well, thanks to his guest, Ian Whatsisface). And I will state that David Rees is completely and utterly adorkable.

Right?
So I just had to tell my boss there is nothing we could do differently with our tracking report that would get me to do the task I've been putting off/avoiding for months. It is not the tracking that's the problem!!

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Sure it is. I bet if you stopped tracking you could put off and avoid it with much less anxiety.

You make an excellent point. And actually, Step One is figure out if it's worth doing anything about, anyway.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Eh, they're putting in a new water system in the neighborhood, which will be a vast improvement over the grown-by-segment garden hose and pixie straws arrangement we've been living with. But people, we live on a mountain. And what are mountains made of? That's right, rock!
They started drilling for the new lines on our street, and hit bedrock, and random boulders, and had to bring out the heavy machinery. They've been drilling at the corner of our house since seven am, and honestly, right now? I'd give up showers just to get the noise to stop.
Yes, I could go somewhere, but I've had the cold from hell since last week, and I still feel grody and puny. I'd rather sit here in my earplugs and whine. Moooaaan.
