The answer...

The answer to all my life's problems, unfortunately, was not at the bottom of my mug of hot chocolate. It did make me feel better though.

Had a down day today, and I'm not sure why. Classes went fine, and was really productive on the translation. Wasted productivity though, as it turns out I had translated something that didn't need to be translated, hence wasting about 5 hours of my time. It's my own fault for trying to get ahead I guess. It also turns out the translation is about double the length I realised and so the work is not so much of a bargain for me, shame that. Had a skype with a complicated friend, which didn't help my mood and I'm not sure why.

Then I discovered that the help I was pushing away was actually the help I needed today. I said I don't feel like talking, but actually that was exactly what I needed, to talk about other things. I never made it to the bath I'd intended, nor to Hati and Dom's, but nevermind. Hopefully, I'll get up on the right side of the bed tomorrow. Luckily, I had someone to cheer me up.
