hathycolI got through this week at work in a vague buzz of exhaustion, spending my evenings catching up with college and friends. Obviously, the college was less fun but the friends bit was good. Also heavily tapas based, which I am very much in favour of. Wednesday night was Catch Up With Fiona, who I don't see as often as before as she is now basically running Quidditch (from what I can tell from social media). On Friday I had Galentine's Day And Sorry I Forgot Your Birthday Mexican food with Iona, where we literally propped up a bar and drank pink wine. I'd never sat at the bar before, I felt ever so subversive. We gossiped and had the kind of chat that is definitely only appropriate with copious amount of pink wine.
(Oh, and I got a GP appointment via crying at the receptionist brokenly until they admitted there was in fact an appointment. Okay, it's not until next Tuesday and I have had to cut a deal with my boss which involves me working from home on that day and cancelling my annual leave the day before BUT THE APPOINTMENT IS MINE. "I have a vitamin deficiency, I think," is how I am lamely explaining it for work purposes.)
I woke up at noon on Saturday, because did I mention exhausted all the time. However, the long lie in really helped my mood and I cleaned most of the house (the rest is today, honest) and proceeded to just generally have a lovely day with Richie. Not even on purpose for Valentine's Day - just a day of catching up on telly, watching terrible films, and cooking food that is nice.
As such, I have woken up this morning, also at 11am but hey it's an improvement. I am also in a splendid mood, the kind I realise I haven't felt for a while. It's not 'I'm in a great mood but oh I'm tired' or 'I'm in a productive mood, at least' but just plain 'I am in a lovely mood'. Good stuff. I'm about to go and have a shower, have lunch, get food for the week ahead and then clean the living room. I was going to start on my assignments for college but pfft, it's half term and I am going to enjoy my good mood while it continues.

That is excellent news about the GP appointment (although it's a shame it required crying). I hope it's productive. I have been sleeping loads recently (slept until 4pm one day last week, although I had pulled two all-nighters in the four days beforehand, and have had lots of days where I sleep to 11 or 12) - it's really annoying when you want to feel awake and be productive, nice as sleep is.
