blip-pop

I took a photo of a flower. I don't know if it was a flower kind of day. This poppy was a long time ago, in the distant morning. Today has included tears; support from colleagues; satisfying research results at work; not much progress on my own dissertation project; a visit to a doctor to explain my illness; a lot of cycling around wearing heels with a wonky pedal not quite concentrating where I am; a work friend for dinner (which was lovely but more procrastination on my project); some chat about an exhibition, a putting off of the Hispanic Festival Board business I have no head-space to think about, letting down the people I am supposed to be supporting, washing the dishes, feeding the cat. I have another interview to do tomorrow, I am woefully under-prepared, still to recruit more people for the study, need to rewrite my interview protocol, worried about how I will get it all done, and still undermining myself by letting myself be distracted.. And not going to bed and getting enough sleep makes it all worse so I am off now.
