weekend update
Dec. 22nd, 2008 05:25 pmUgh.
This weekend I woke up feeling like absolute crap on Saturday morning. I couldn't work out what, but I was slightly dizzy, extremely fatigued, and had a terrible headache. (No, I wasn't massively partying the night before!)
I figured it was some kind of stress brought on by my loathing of xmas shopping, which I was planning to do that day. I struggled into town, did the shopping, and got home about six hours later..
.. and then fell into bed and slept from about 6pm to 8:30pm. WTF?
Got up still felt tired, and didn't end up going to the solstice doof in the bush after all.
Slept lots more than evening, and then Sunday I felt terrible as well!
Stopped off to pick up a bunch of different over-the-counter drugs, then grabbed Jodi, Ruth and Robin, and we headed to Philip Island to play with penguins and koalas and so on. I continued to feel terrible, but enjoyed the penguins and koalas anyway.
Drove home late in the evening, dropped everyone off at their respective homes, and then finally got home at 1am to discover my old D200 had sold for considerably more than I expected, hurrah.
I was expecting to feel so broken that I could call in sick to work on Monday, but this morning I actually felt a little bit better, so munched a cocktail of mersyndol, ibuprofen and strepsils and headed into work.
Today the buyer of the D200 turned up, and didn't want to come into my work to do the exchange since he was double-parked or something.. So i headed out, gave him the bag with the camera and accessories, and then I counted and checked a stupidly large roll of notes, while in a side street in Fitzroy. I kept feeling like I was doing some kind of drug deal.. furtive bags being passed, large sums of money being verified.. oh dear.
Looking to the future, I'll be driving over to Adelaide in a couple of days, and staying down there until the 31st or the 1st, depending if anyone invites me to a good NYE party or not.. (Nothing heard of so far!)
