Chocolate required

Nothing profound here today (or indeed any day, say some of my cheekier readers). Can hardly believe it’s only Monday. Woke up feeling exhausted and haven’t improved as the day has gone on.

Numbers and percentages make me panicky. Look at my tasklist for some time to try and identify anything that isn’t horrible. Settle on writing a few more information literacy programme reports. This is vaguely heartening as I realise I have actually done something useful in the last year. Some nice comments on the student evaluations.  In the afternoon have a meeting about a whole other area of work which has looming deadlines and will entail much fiddling and technical jiggery-pokery. Surely by now it is time to retreat to the safety of the duvet?

Lunchtime: buy speaker gifts for our CDG Raising the bar conference. Chap in Waterstone’s is a bit nervous, says thankyou about 500 times during the process. Drives me slightly mad.

Serious need for chocolate before heading off to the vet’s - by 7pm I will no longer be the grumpiest member of the household…
