Gusts of wind up to 40mph (tame in tornado country, I know), dust storms - I can see a big one blowing in from the west right now - and tomorrow, rain or snow depending on your elevation. Lovely finally on Tuesday when everyone has to go back to work.

Mild irritation. A colleague called in sick, meaning I had to do a one-hour seminar presentation on short notice. Not too hard, just recycled a lecture on the same topic I gave four months ago. Got the hand-outs and such organised in time.
More significant irritation. Total attendance at the seminar: one. One lousy, measly stinkin student. I still had to do it. :p

So did you sit down with a coffee to impart the info Zen, or did you maintain your professionalism? lol

Bank holiday. One day holiday may mean a three day delay in the return of my passport from embassy (a) before I can apply for a second visa from embassy (b) to go travelling. Flights already booked - departing 11th June. Cutting it fine :^(

Bone-crushing fatigue.

I've put on about 10 pounds because of my meds.

I'm not really sure, but I have had a vague feeling of unease all day.
I can't seem to settle to anything and feel generally unhappy, as if I've just had some bad news, or there is something coming up that I am dreading. Neither of which is true, but I keep probing the feeling to be sure. Payday tomorrow. Never enough money to go round. But I should be looking forward to it, as it's an opportunity to go out, even if it mostly means standing in queues to pay installments. Do you think it's possible to have a premonition of something insignificant? I might be having a psychic insight into my haircut tomorrow. I'll let you know. Off for a cup of tea now. It solves most disturbances in the ether.

I'd be dead. The extra ten makes me 40 over my fighting weight.

I feel your pain.
Besides the extra poundage chemo/steroid therapy laid on my ass, the premature menopause pounds laid it on me, too. When they told me I had cancer, I was like - cool! Now I'll get all skinny! And they told me, no...er, as a matter of fact, most breast cancer patients GAINED weight. How is this right? Everyone knows the bonus of CA is to lose weight!
