Ug. I feel awful. The weather changed last night, and I think the change in pressure wonked up my sinuses. There must be something I can blame for this, after all...

I finished The Left Hand of Darkness this morning, and very much enjoyed it. It was a very interesting read, and I was once again impressed with Ursula LeGuin's writing. I'll probably write more about it later, after I've had time to contemplate some of the major themes of the book. It was definitely a "food for thought" kind of book, and in my experience, those kinds of books don't often come with well-developed characters and intriguing plots; this one had it all.

I really don't know what to do with myself right now. Reading didn't help my headache, and I'm certain that doing anything with the computer (like rambling at my journal right now) won't do me any good at all either. Though at least I can type with my eyes closed. I don't want to go lounge in bed like a spoiled cat, doing nothing. Fah. ~laughs~ This is a sign to myself that my interests are, when it comes down to it, kind of limited. When it's just me, myself, and I ... well, usually I'm pretty easily amused and have plenty to do. I just feel lousy. Ug. Really lousy.

I have this picture of Todd on my desk in the flipframe right now. I think later on in spring, once it really is spring, we'll go back to there (there being the great smoky mountains national park). that was one of the best trips we've ever taken. I remember flopping exhausted onto the hard little hotel bed after exploring the park all day, and just feeling so good.

I can't concentrate. At all. I'll go do the dishes - it's brainless, needs to be done, and doesn't require me to really look at anything.

Did the dishes. Then I went and stood right outside the door in my sock feet for, like, twenty minutes, just breathing in and out and feeling the sunshine. That helped, some. At least I feel better emotionally, even if my head is still doing that ow pain thing. Todd mentioned a late lunch when he went in to work today - I hope he wants to do that soonish. I think it would do me some good to get out of the house. Ah. there's the phone. Good. It's lunch time.
