kittydesadeI spent the entire weekend being sick either in bed or on the couch. And we have a party to host in ten days and the house is a wreck. And the boy isn't much better than I am. Yaaaay. Slow steps over the next week I guess, and then a big push over the weekend, especially since I don't know if I'm going to have class. And it's only the main downstairs rooms anyway. Plus the bathroom which I'd hoped to have finished but fuckit, the boy can field all the questions about when we're going to finish our bathroom. Ugh.
(Unlike the office I don't actually care that the bathroom looks of drywall still, I just don't want to have to answer questions about it.)
I picked up two books from the library today for research on writing projects, plus Uncle Elf Lord brought back my guitar that he'd tuned up according to some web tutorial on electric guitar pickups, so now I've managed to caterpillar myself by counting up all the things I'm going to try to reintegrate into my life now that I'm back in a roughly normal human being energy level. *Crowley endless scroll dot gif*
Wake up, stagger through showering, some language practice on Duolingo, exercise with capoeira or yoga depending on how I'm feeling. Breakfast. Maybe physics?? Maybe??? Maybe knitting? Makeup, work. Maybe writing?? If work is slow. Home, dinner. Writing. Maybe physics? Study Hindi, Arabic. Somewhere, guitar practice gets crammed in here maybe. Capoeira class itself on Wednesdays. Stretch out, remind people to take care of themselves on twitter, wash and moisturize the shit out of my face because it's winter and my skin hates me. Go to sleep.
Or to reiterate: Study/review ten-twelve languages, exercise, practice guitar, study physics, write, keep up with crafts, do day job, do a beauty routine. In a 24 hour day and a 5 day work week, 2 day weekend. I'm fairly sure I can do this, I've done it before until my thyroid packed it in and it took me months to figure out why I was too tired for anything and then over a year to get the right dosage. And I don't have to do guitar practice all the time. Maybe Thursdays and Fridays. But .... but. I know that the trick to managing all this is relatively careful scheduling and, as with learning music, just to keep going when you trip up in one place. But. Argh. I have insecurities and worries and fears. Also learning electric guitar on my own is hard. I had enough piano lessons to be able to read music and figure out how to translate it to playing the instrument, but guitar? Ahahahah fuck off. Argh. (Any book or youtube recs would be welcome if the DWverse at large has them.)
I don't know. We'll see. We'll see if I can do it, how much of this I can do on a regular basis. One week, two. Three. I'll give it a shot. Right now I can barely keep a single thought in my head, let alone several. Writing is a chore. I'm exhausted all the time. Stupid crud and being sick. But I'll sleep it off and then we'll see. Plus I have books from the library. That's always cheerful.
