RBOC: End of the week edition

  • I spent this morning at my nephew's soccer game and now I have a ridiculous sun burn on the right side of my face, y'know the kind where you can see where your sunglasses were. ugh.
  • Went to happy hour on Thursday with some of my co-workers. It was fun and I'm so glad they invited me. I am the only one on my team at my level, there are a few above me and quite a few below me (in terms of job grade) and I was a little worried that it might make things isolating. But nope, not at all. Everyone at ANJ is so friendly and welcoming. My team is actually taking me to lunch on Monday and I can't wait.
  • 16 days until we close on our new house. Then we'll take about 2 weeks to move. I can't wait... but does that mean we've started packing?? Um.. nope. We should start that.
  • Tomorrow is going to be a rainy Sunday full of NFL football. DH's team plays at 1pm, my team at 4pm. Looks like it might be a PJ day.
  • I am still having headaches, everyday. I think it's an allergy thing because I'm also really, really tired which is something else that happens to me when my allergies are acting up. I really hope it stops soon.
  • I haven't done any manuscript writing in the past month. This isn't making me happy but I've needed the weekends to relax. I am hoping once we move I can spend a few hours a weekend and get some of my papers out. I really love my dissertation work and I feel like I can make an important contribution if I ever get the manuscript submitted.

You might consider going in to your GP to get your headaches checked out. Mine are allergy-related, so I take some drugs and feel better. No more headaches!

PJ days are lots of fun. Unfortunately (well, only kind of), we have a fancy new TV that other people come over to watch football on.

Spend tomorrow like I do: take loads of sinus meds and spend tomorrow dozing in and out on the couch.

Good luck with the packing and headaches.

Thanks everyone. I had a bit of a headache this afternoon but not nearly as bad as it has been the last couple of weeks.

The weather is starting to change, so I'm hoping the headaches will go away.
