Bleh.

I'm in a very odd state of mind today: unfocused, listless, unmotivated and forgetful. Even more so than usual. While not a crisis, it is a profoundly disturbing sensation.

Yesterday was far worse. Yesterday morning was complete emotional turmoil as I drove to work, wondering why I bother working for my employer, worrying about the future of my career and general fretting about a number of work-related items. By lunchtime, I persuaded myself that little issues were being blown out of proportion by a feeling of general exhaustion --I didn't sleep worth a damn the prior night-- and opted to simply ride it out.

I slept more than usual last night, getting to bed around 9 PM for the first time in months. Alas, a certain husband o' mine was snoring up a storm from 2 AM onwards but I resumed restful sleeping once my pillow & I moved to the smaller guestroom.

I don't think I'm coming down with some bug but I wouldn't discount the possibility of allergies kicking up. At the moment, I don't meet my own threshold for calling in sick to work so I'll see about having an early lunch and tough it out for the balance of the day. If I seem more clueless than normal today, try me again tomorrow for (hopefully) better results.

Whoa!

I just took this photo with my cell phone from the second floor of our office building:

I guess the next round of layoffs may be more severe than we thought... they're digging mass graves!
