Fireball head

Well, hi diary, and hi to anyone who cares to read it. I'm really tired today. Tired and cranky. Woke up with a head like an angry fireball - pounding, and not looking forward to the day ahead. Got up and went to work regardless.

I'm sorry to say that I've set myself some work deadlines that at best were going to be a challenge and that at worst are impossible. I'm so far behind in relation to them that the stress of it is making me irritable and far less rational than I should be. Booking in a job interview this afternoon was just dead wrong - I was tired, irritated and frankly I couldn't have cared whether the girl was rubbish or a godsend - whichever way it went I figured I'd give her the jopb. Terrible way to hire someone, but really...I was beyond caring.

I've done it to myself - become disorganised and therefore frustrated. Normal things go out the window when I'm like this - eating properly, sleeping adequately, going to the gym...and it's all bad for my mental health.

Tomorrow morning I've committed myself to going to a breakfast and lecture on Emotional Intelligence, and it's going to be a struggle to arrive by 7.15am. Actually its going to be a struggle to be conscious at all at that time!

Anyway, thats it for now. I need to take control of my head and headspace before things go downhill. Gonna start with some Panadiene - its a start at least.

Know about that head pain - not pleasant at all. Also know about the tiredness - I have had it for a couple of weeks - could be the fact the stress of the wedding is over and now I have new stress - anti discrimination trial.

Think you need to go to work and renegoiate the deadlines. You don't want to be seen as not meeting them especially if they are important ones.

Go G!!!

Hope Breakfast is good - EI is a great topic to learn about.
