Work is Hard

This morning, I have:

- Re-upped on Dice and Monster.
- Signed up for the Harvard Business Review web site, which has a lot of good info and not nearly as much snootiness as expected.
- Applied for three jobs online.
- Gone out to the local food bank, only to learn they are open on Monday and Wednesdays.
- Sent a letter of inquiry to a technical writing agency.
- Began cleaning out my way overloaded email accounts.
- Had a snacky.
- Pandered to Gussy. I found him sitting under the kitchen heating vent, so I cleared out all the junk, put one of his beds next to the vent. Then I put a big pan of water on the stove to humidify the kitchen. Sheesh.
- Started a load of laundry.
- Avoided really looking at the house.


I was in a weird mood yesterday. I didn't know how to shake myself out of it, so I took a nap.

I am so cold all the time. I have the heat on 68F and I'm freezing. I think I need to drink more tea.

Oh, and insomnia has come bouncing on my chest in the morning. Wakey wakey! Rise and shine, campers! Heloo, wake up now! Are you awake yet? No? How 'bout now? Now? And because yesterday was so strange and so depressing, I have a to-do list that should keep me busy all day and well into the evening.

Alas, I have learned that there is no place in Jersey where I can sell my plasma. Pffft.

My heat is set at 73. Is 68 normal for you or a conservation measure?

It's a conservation measure.

Winter temp at night: 60
Winter temp during the day: 64 - 66

Summer temp at night: 72
Summer temp during the day: 78

I put the heated mattress pad back on the bed and it's heavenly.

Heated Mattress's are the best.

Are you getting any exercise? That's pretty important too.

Mark - I put the heated mattress pad back on the bed last night. It. Was. Heaven.
