shapeofthingsNearly 9am and I'm yet to do any actual work. My mind is slowly starting to focus enough to potentially work on that pesky paper, but I'm procrastinating over a cup-o-soup. So far this morning I have tried (and failed) to get around the work download blocking to download some good new classical music from Epitonic, followed by surfing the journals of ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
androkles and ruralrob to steal all my favourite images on the hard-drive. I then tested out the various images as my wallpaper - the almost square shape and high resolution of my TFT screen means few images work well. I've settled on a lovely pic from Ian of ornamental chillis, replacing my earlier desktop of Robby's "the Gut".
I eat so much when i'm tired!
Outside the sky is immensly blue and the wind is blowing. I never grew out of getting hyperactive on windy dys and i long to be out there, bundled up and battling my way along a bluff or sea-side cliff somewhere, or up in the mountains, watching the clouods scudding and listening to the trees sighing.
So here's the plan: no caffeine, MSG or sugary foods after midday. Regular bedtimes and wake times. Turn off computer at least a half hour prior to bed and start getting some more exercise once the back is up to it. I think I'll also visit my GP and enquire about Melatonin supplements to kick my body-clock back into rhythm. It's just a pity I'm a natural night person, but with Alex up at 5 I've already been woken, so any further sleep isn't good enough quality to make uo for a later bed-time, so I'll just have to adjust to early nights :-(
Meanwhile, enjoy pondering the brilliance of my friend, Mr. Escher...
