August 19, 1997

Tuesday is the absolute worst day of the week.

And today was one of the worst Tuesdays ever.

A lot of things came crashing down on me all at once ...

Today was my early day so I was in at 7am, bleary eyed and vaguely nauseated in that early morning way. Upload and a constant stream of corrections.

Then, editing and discussion and final nailing down of facts for the story I wrote for the paper.

Then files for a special issue of the paper needing processing.

Don't get me wrong, I was HAPPY to be productively busy. I just wish it hadn't happened on a Tuesday.

Too many bad moments when the screen swam and my vision fogged and I felt like I couldn't stand straight anymore.

Thank goodness this day is over. I just want to crawl home and curl up in a little ball in my bed and sleep and sleep and sleep.
