Having vertigo issues really costs in mental CPU power, as it turns out. I’ve been slightly dizzy every day since I got back from Vancouver, and while yesterday was probably the worst, today came with the added doozy of a headache that kind of put me horizontal when I got home. It also appears to be making me a bit stupid, because I stared at a very simple email for twenty damn minutes today, fully aware that I should be able to process what it was saying and what to do with it, and yet… twenty minutes.
Then I gave up.
Maybe tomorrow will be better. Maybe sleeping in on Saturday will help. I will do this thing.
Other news: Tim and I have decided that next year I should bring with me to VancouFur a bunch of stickers and maybe little inexpensive prints and the like, or a tiny zine of black and white doodles that I can print, or something, and we can use that as an ice-breaker. I say Tim and I, but it was his idea. Ultimately, he is very smart.
At any rate, that is basically the content of this post, as I intended it. Mostly a follow-up to recent events. I’m a bit too bleary-brained for much else.
More later, when my head is less goo.
Funny thing: I took this photo around a month ago and that whole shrub/tree thing is just gone now. They clear-cut the whole bank beside where that BC Hydro cable is meant to go, and it looks just so stark and ugly now. The gate to the trail reopened today though, I saw, so tomorrow we’ll see if I can get to work without the ugly detour, once again. We live in hope.
