Today I am going to practice not being heroic. My cohort at work is on vacation and so I have her work and my work plus a whole bunch of extra work with no back-up or support and a process that needs to be run at 6am tomorrow morning. Normally I would clock in and get as much done as possible to lower my anxiety level but I already know I am not going to hit my Tuesday deadline and I am still sick. So. I am taking the whole day off. To compensate I'll stay home tonight, sadly, from the monthly Stonehenge Studios reading and turn in early. I am such a wild thing. Not.
I did read a review of Artful by Ali Smith the other day and am intrigued. I think I will force myself to download a sample so I don't just buy it and then stick it in my ever so long "to be read" queue. If you've read it, I'd love to know what you think.
I just requested Artful from the library - looks intriguing. Thanks for the suggestion - I won't get it for a while, so let me know what you think if you start it. So many books, so little time.
ReplyDeleteGood for you for taking a day off - you truly deserve one.
