snippets from my thought processes

I'm at work. And bored stiff. I totally don't want to do any work at all. Tres boring.

I've done all the references for my Tutorial paper, can't work on my module for education because I need the readings, and I can't really do much else. Meh.

I'm hungry. Can't eat until the last patient leaves, and that looks like it's going to be at least another 30 minutes. Dammit.

So yes. Bored.

Am working. *sigh*

I don't want to be here. I want to be at home with my husband. *grumps*

And it's quiet. So the last 2 hours have passed So. Slowly. Despite the mounds of work I could do.

*yawns*

Dumdedum...

Talk to me? Anyone?

I feel like crap.

Yes, I am sick. Again. I have my usual sinusy-sore throat-achy thing. This time, I have a fever. How exciting! *sniffle*

I am hoping I get over this super-fast because I have an exam on Saturday and I would like to actually study before it. Unfortunately, I cannot wing this one. I simply do not know enough to pass. Tragically.

Work today has been a bit of a trial, but ok. I have anti-biotics which hopefully should work. I'm having tomorrow off, which is wonderful because I have this stupid Vanuatu stuff to get done aswell.

*sighs*

I do not wish to read ANY. MORE. ancient sources. Not Tacitus, or Plutarch, or Pliny, or Suetonius.

I still have to read Tacitus, Dio, and probably some Josephus. *sighs*

I just have no motivation. None. I think it's because I'm tired. And because I've been doing this assignment since the DAWN OF TIME, DAMMIT.

...

Ok, so it's three weeks, but I've still got oooodles to read. And that doesn't include stuff written by people who are actually STILL ALIVE.

Heh. I'm never doing honours. You spend the whole year researching and writing ONE essay. When I say I have the attention span of a gnat unless I'm actually interested or about to fail, I mean it. Zippo.

Maybe I should start researching for media studies. That's technically due before ancient history....

Ooh yay ancient history lecture in half an hour. Excuse me while I shoot myself.

I bought a new top. It's blue with white polka dots and has 3/4 sleeves. I love. I got in on sale at General Pants Co., so I'm stoked. And I wasn't even really looking! Yay!

I have decided I want a new job. But I don't.

Humans + change = ...stressed humans. Tragic.

I am SO BORED.

BORED.

Bored!

I have done all the paperwork I can do. There is only one doctor on so it's only 1 patient every 10 minutes, assuming they turn up. The phone rings occasionally, but it's usually to see if we're open tomorrow or have any appointments free, so they're quick calls (we're not and we don't). At least I'll have the banking to do when Pav finishes, but that takes all of 5 minutes if there's nothing wrong.

Someone entertain me? I'm stuck here till 5pm. It's getting to the point where I'm going to start playing Canasta at Yahoo Games...

I need to change my Christmas icons.

It was 33C and disgusting yesterday, and now my computer is telling me it's about 22-23C. And it's cloudy, and everything is *yellow*. It's a bit eerie.

In other news, it's one of my colleague's last day today. In some ways I'm sad because she's really reliable and intelligent, but I'm mostly happy because she manipulates people constantly and is completely unhelpful at times. I don't mind her, but I find whenever I work with her I end up angry about something - usually because I feel really manipulated and hurt. Conflicting emotions.

I got 23.5/30 for my History essay. Not as well as I would have liked, but still a 6 (Distinction). Now I just have to get at least 75% for the exam, and I'll get a 6 overall. YAY. Must study hard.

I woke up this morning at 5:40am, rolled out of bed, got in the shower, and realised I start at 7:30, so I didn't need to get up until about 6:15am. *cries* And I might not get a sleep this afternoon because the brother is meeting me at Uni to look at some books, and I don't finish until 3pm anyway. And I have homegroup tonight, and a 7am (definitely!) tomorrow. And I had a 7am yesterday.

Three 5:30am starts tend to tire me out, especially when I don't get to bed on Tuesday until after 10:30pm because of homegroup, and then have to be up at 5:30am. *sighs*

It is SO HARD BEING ME.

OMG IT'S DONE.

I have just finished formatting the proposal for the Vanuatu Cervical Cancer Prevention Scheme for my boss. All 50 pages. It's only taken me 2 hours. *sighs*

This also means I got no Uni work done. *freaks*

Bed now. Stress tomorrow.

I scored a 512MB USB key last night from my father in law. I was telling my mother in law how I lost my pretty formatted/referenced version of my essay, and he brought out this USB key he'd scored from Ford. He organises the company cars for the whole of Queensland through them, so they do nice things like give him stuff and taking him racing, etc. He already has about 3, so he gave me this one, just in case the other one was about to die. Husband should be happy now; he can have his USB key back. ;)

Finished work early today because one of the specialists decided not to rock up without telling us, which meant we had too many staff on. It was too late to call the new girl (who is going to be an ex-employee very soon), so I left 2 hours early. It's good because now I can finish going through my essay and print it out before the lecture. Yay.

I think I'm just going to head home after classes today instead of staying back and going straight to homegroup. I'm pretty wrecked - I've only had about 6 hours sleep two nights in a row, and I slept really badly last night. I was going to stay behind and work on my other essays, but there's really nothing here for me, except to save time by removing 40 minutes of travel time. I don't think I'm *that* desperate yet. Besides, it'll be nice to actually arrive at homegroup in a car. And not have to have Macca's for dinner.

Dammit, I still have to go to lectures. It feels like the afternoon already. Maybe I'll skip the tute...but he knows I'm here and it's a small class and I'd feel bad...

Hmmm. Should actually get some work done.
