Things to do on a Tuesday

[caddyman]

Tomorrow I could go into the office, but I believe that I shall take one final day on the back of Friday's distress to recuperate. This I rationalise by the fact that I still feel tired a lot of the time, despite getting plenty of sleep. Perhaps I lost a little more claret than I anticipated. Wednesday should be fine. I feel fine now, just tired. Of course, the fact that it's nearly 12.30am might conceivably have something to do with that.

No, tomorrow, I shall squeeze one further day of sick leave and stay home. It's not generally something I do, so it won't hurt for once.

And I should actually type up some stuff for NWO as promised a while back, though I must admit that nodding happily and saying yes was far easier than actually doing it. Character sheets are one thing, but Tribunal notes are quite another. I have to try and remember how we got where we did, and which characters are still alive, and which have met horrible, grisly ends in the name of art and free-form role playing. Still, if I can get through the sheets, I can reward myself with a nice, cathartic piece of character writing that I have brewing in my head, and which is destined at some point for a character sheet. I have worked out in my own mind a reason why a certain character as played differed so vastly from the character as written, and armed with this revelation, I can heap misery and guilt upon yet another character. Or maybe two. It's moments like this that remind me why I put myself through the periodic hell of freeform writing. In a curious way, I owe the revelation to thomryng's little survey on religion, as much as I do the characters involved.

I can't explain that without giving perhaps too much away, but the other NWO writers may be able to see what I'm driving at. If not, they will once it's written up. I hope.

And on that enigmatic note, I shall sign off for the evening.

Eat vitamin and iron pills. This tiredness is quite likely a lack of iron.

Spinach is not as good for you as people tell you it is, there's plenty of iron locked up in there but you can't get it without adding lots of butter (no, really, it was in New Scientist) which is v v unhealthy. Marmite's good, but it's hard to eat enough of it to make a difference.

Or, alternatively, rare steaks have plenty of B-vitamins and iron. I also advocate good quality chocolate, in moderation.

Sounded wonderful, until you added that word moderation!
