(no subject)

Everyone teased me unmercifully about forgetting to bring in the Christmas card from Waldorf the Mole.  It was an odd coincidence, because CeeJay had just purchased one to send TO him. 

On the other hand

I just realized I have eaten nothing but chocolate so far today.  So now I'll have a nice nourishing bowl of rice with cheese and gravy before I go brave the crowds. 

I thought I was doing alright

Emotionally - even though my desk is a mess and the presents weren't bought for so long, and then it was taking me forever to get them wrapped and sent out - I thought that I was keeping an even keel.  And today I snapped.  I missed some work and had a headache all day.  But, I did get the damn presents sent out.  Since it is a slow time of year at the moment (that will be different in a few days) my co-workers were very understanding and said I probably should just have called in sick entirely and had a chill day.  A couple of times people told me to go home - said my face was pale, my lips were pale.  And then later I got flushed.  I think that was mostly because of the stress, but on the other hand I didn't eat well earlier today, nor drink enough water. 

I've got to get on top of taking my vitamines and such. 

And... I hate to say I'm going to do something and then not do it, but I think I'm going to set myself a goal with I hope will be realistic - I'll try to stay away from LJ in the mornings on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.  That means I won't be able to read every entry on every one of your wonderful journals.  That doesn't mean any of you are less worthy.
