...and it feels great! I was stuck working a bunch of midnight shifts over the past few weeks, and man, did that stink. I was in a little bit of a rut to begin with, and that rut became an instant canyon. I was miserable and useless for a couple weeks there. I was weakened enough that I got sick. It was bad enough that I was thinking about going to the doctor, which would have put a hurt on my wallet. (hooray for being among that 15-ish percent of Americans who are uninsured!) On top of that, my readjusted sleep cycle made it really difficult to get certain high-priority to-do items finished. The two things I have in mind are actually still waiting to be done. *shame*

Thankfully, the slump mostly ended when the midnights did, on Thursday. I've had much more energy and rapidly recovered from that nagging sickness. Now if only I'd get off the figurative pot and get those nagging to-dos done. (Yeah, Bridge, that includes one pertaining to you...tis hard to send stuff off when one's sleeping through the post office's open hours. I WILL take care of that Really Soon. Promise.)
