Des is slowly regaining her sanity (unfortunately?)
No one big thing in particular, just lots of little things all piling up. First it was that my email was down and I couldn’t get my email and I was expecting a lot of important things and I needed to email the frickin governor (and his little dog, too) and harass him (them). Then it was a very stressful four hour meeting where I couldn’t make it through the agenda by the end of the meeting and I had to rush through things. Then I came home to find that my email is still broken, unless I use my new Vista laptop, which I haven’t migrated to yet, so I have to do downloads and installs and configurations, and Vista’s just annoying in general, but at least I could see my email, even if all the documents I need are still over on this one. Then my dad called (because his email is down too) and we discussed and debated and he told me how I should be doing everything differently and so on, which just made me more tense. Then I had to yell at a certain person for screwing up a certain thing for my son. Now I’m setting aside all of that and starting to think about all the things I’m behind on and need to do now, which doesn’t help.
I can’t seem to unwind, which is unusual for me. I’m just sitting here at this high level of tension, trying to think of something I can do to help. If it were a little warmer, and if it weren’t nearly sundown, I’d go for a run. Chocolate isn’t going to make a dent in this. I’m not a warm bath person. I’m not sure what else to try.
What do you all do to unwind?
