darchildre: rebis in a purple trenchcoat, looking enigmatic (rebis says:)
Yesterday, it was too hot to do anything. So I spent the day sitting at my desk with a fan on, reading fanfic, and compulsively listening to this song over and over again.

I'm a little bit sad that I can't do the same thing today.

Today, I am woozy. I feel light-headed and like I can't quite focus, and when I close my eyes, I can feel myself tipping slightly. And I've run into my desk three times already.*

The other problem with the wooziness is that it also seems to coincide with bad hearing days, when everything seems oddly muted and I have trouble distinguishing sounds when there are a lot of them going on. And then I have to keep asking people to repeat themselves, which is irritating.

Fortunately, the library isn't terribly busy. I think that this would be the kind of day where I could very quickly end up hating everyone in the entire world




*To be fair, I'm not actually that good at not running into things at the best of times, though. This is partly due to my unfortunate habit of looking mostly at the ground when I walk and partly due to my other unfortunate habit of tending to walk close to walls/furniture, rather than in the middle of a corridor. I run into door frames a good deal.

Conversations that other people don't have:

Coworker: Oh, look, the Bride of Frankenstein dvd, Sara!

Me: It is a beautiful film. I would live in that film.

Coworker: You're hilarious.

Me: No, seriously. Well, actually, what I want is the castle in Son of Frankenstein. That is my dream home.

Coworker: Your dream home?

Me: It has that beautiful staircase. I covet that staircase. Come here, I will show you a picture of the staircase.

Coworker: That's an...interesting looking house.

Me: If I could live inside a German Expressionist film, I would be a happy woman, I tell you what.
