Petit coup de mou

[castalie]

So you thought I wouldn't post again this week, uh? Or maybe it was just me. Ahem. But I'm here \o/

It's not so much that I had a busy and hectic week (even though I did), it's more that I was feeling a bit under the weather. I'm lucky enough that I never have a problem with running out of spoons to achieve whatever I need to achieve, be it mundane or more "elaborate". I mean, obviously I get tired and stressed out about things but they never become Too Overwhelming. This week, though, I've been tired and yesterday, I felt like I was about to misplace some spoons.

In the morning I did manage to muster the motivation to work on two assignments from 10.00AM to 4.00PM (go me!) but when the time came to leave for a family reunion, I almost couldn't go. I just wanted to curl up on the couch, not speak or interact with anyone, and rest. In the end, I did go and it was ok (which is why I said "felt like I was about to misplace some spoons" because, again, I was ok enough to go out of the door and interact with my family).

This morning I was quite happy to be with everyone (we slept over at my aunt and godfather's with two of my cousins and nephew) and I was as happy to go back to Paris afterwards in time for our French Posse Annual New Year Afternoon Tea at M.'s. This evening, Cookie and I ordered Indian food and ate in front of Daredevil (am still watching it as a matter fact, oh this show ♥) and I feel much better. So all in all, I'm fine but I just didn't enjoy the past week and there are some personal issues that are stressing me out on a regular basis. Sometimes I wish we could hit "pause" when things seem to be getting a bit too much so that we could breath a little before hitting "play" again and resume things...

Oh well, as Wesley said in Angel once, sometimes you need to wallow ;)

Hope you had a good weekend, flist. And that the upcoming week is a pleasant one.

Hear, hear. Though I've been feeling like this for, uh, most of the past decade and a half (with some on / off moments), so I might not be the best to appreciate a sudden onset of it. >.>

Same with a RL Ctrl-Z button (Cmd for Macs... ;-) )

I am also very tired, but part of it is self-inflicted: after I found that I was jetlagged after all, I... stopped fighting it. 5 am doesn't make a good sleeping time at my age. /o\

I know, this is why I was cautious in the way I phrased my entry(or tried to be) because it's not something I usually to fight against, something I'm grateful for.

The past two weeks, it felt a bit too much: work and school and personal issues. I'm already feeling better though so I'm not complaining.

Oh, yes, a Ctrl-z button would be amazing as well!

Hope your sleeping pattern is getting on track now?

I second the need for a pause button as mentioned in the comment above! Or a time turner just for wallowing and napping. *g*

Glad you had fun anyways, and I hope you have a good week too. ♥

Enigel above suggested a Ctrl-Z button and wouldn't that be amazing as well?

The week has been quite hectic too but I felt much better, thank you :)
