I slept a LOT of Saturday, finally! Although it messed with my study plan, and I did not get up to go to the Language Lab, I thought my health was more important to do this so I would be able to function better in the long run. I even went to bed early Saturday night and slept more.
I still felt groggy Sunday so I slept a hell of a lot more, but I did not get as much as I did on Saturday. Oekaki called me.
I also got caught up with some of my SF reading. It was nice to read a little then roll over and nap for a while. Yes, even I have to get away from fanfic sometimes.
I was not able to sleep at all last night, however, I no longer have that fucking over-bearing groggy-stupid feeling that has been hanging over me for the past few weeks. This will be short work week so I will have to utilize the fact I will be off four days to get stuff done.
Mother Nature will be starting either today or tomorrow and the fact I have had decent sleep will help curb the severity of the headache that comes with it. The hormones help, too.
rat had to work Sunday so I had two days of no talking, lots of rest and sleep. My chest is feeling so much better because of it. It was SO tempting to call people this weekend but I knew I should not talk at all or I would blow my chest out again. I am hoping the office will be relatively quiet and I will not be called on to do much advising, phone calls or teaching. The big boss will be off all week so we have to get ourselves in a little early to open up the classrooms for everyone.
So all my study plans went completely down the drain. Craptop-ni sat next to the bed, taunting me while I looked at it from the pillow. No flashcards of the new kanji were made. The flashcards from the past were not pulled from the file box and put in my case to take and study at work.
The Kanji book the instructor wants us to have arrived. "The New Nelson" is what it is called by amazon.com and I confirmed which edition to get with sensei prior to purchasing it. The thing is a doorstop, folks. I am debating on taking it to class tonight, just to show it to him. It has a slipcase, weird.
The other thing I did this weekend was oekaki, because it seemed my creative urge is needing it badly. The LONG list of what and where it was done is over at the scratches and scribbles blog.
Thanks: --> to Lia, my sensei, who has inspired me to draw again. I
wouldn't be doing this without your support, Domo Arigato!
--> to Talon, for sending me her fabulous fics, inspiring me with her writing to draw my first
illustration for a story and actually liking what I drew.
--> to Dasia, for her words of encouragement when drawing her original chara.
--> to Joules, a wonderful epic fic writer, for liking my art enough to want to post them with Talon's
and her own stories.
--> to Lutra, the other half of the epic team, for being so supportive.
--> to Jacque' & Becca Raddittzu, we met on eBay as bidder and sellers and now we are face-to-face
friends. You showed us the real DBZ with your fansubs. It's all your fault the house is full of
doujinshi! *LOL*
