Not doing so hot today. First off, I'm so tired. I hate this daylight savings bit...it's really thrown me off. Second, I drank too much last night, and that has always been bad lately-- doctor said it's a possible side effect of my meds if I drink...I hate it when he's right on that stuff. So I forgot to turn the oven off last night after making dinner. And I made some frozen garlic bread stuff, so it had to be turned up really warm. I woke up this morning and my apartment was freakin' hot, and I was all groggy and really, really wanted to go back to sleep. Third, my legs and-- I hate to admidt this-- my ass muscles are really sore. The best part-- I'm not 100% certain why. I think it was from yesterday, when I was up north helping my Dad. We burned a couple of brush piles, and tredging through the 3 and 4 foot snow drifts was tough. Then it was sawing up and removning a bunch of pine trees that were knocked over in the huge storm last week. My Dad's never one to cut a tree trunk into manageble sizes, so we had to both carry these 6-foot long sections of logs up the hill and stack them with all the other firewood to be cut and split. So I don't know, maybe it was doing that that resulted in the soreness. Or it could have been the long drive home last night too. In any case, I'm very tired this morning, trying to get some homework done, and really tired. I opened the windows to let some of that heat out, but-- and this should illustrate just how tired and crabby I am-- the damn birds tweeting and chirping outside are driving me nuts. I usually don't mind the sounds of the birds-- I have a birdfeeder set up-- but today I do. What the hell? Oh well, maybe I'll wake up later today and feel a little more productive.
