Evening Update

I am frustrated. Just a bunch of stuff, and I feel like there's no end in sight. There's a lot of stuff that has me feeling overwhelmed, not the least of which is my dissertation.

Speaking of which, I spent some time today printing off articles to read and write about this weekend. I've got them all in files that are color coded. I need to get one of those file boxes so I can transport them more easily. I figure that particularly with the writing workshop stuff, if I can get a page or two (some of them more) out of each file folder (some of them have a four or five articles in them), then I can easily get those extra pages that are necessary knocked out.

My plan is that I'm going to head north to Amish country after my appointment with the ortho on Friday and then spend Saturday writing. Without the distractions of my home, I'm really hoping that I can get the additions to that section knocked out and shipped off to my chair on Monday. Or at least I think that's the plan. Sounds good, doesn't it?

Work was rough today. I kept thinking to myself, what the hell? How is this my problem, and is this really going to be a problem? For me? Makes me grouchy. I know that I'm not good at thinking in the small term. I'm a global thinking. I see the big picture. Fine details often elude me. But damn. I was just annoyed as hell. I'm not good at hiding that kind of thing, though, so I'm sure that my irritation showed.

And boys. *sigh* Stupid boys. Don't want to talk about it right now. Dammit.
