As it was, as it will be...
So, last week went as follows:
Monday - went to work despite being flu-ey. Got worse during long and annoying day.
Tuesday - Wednesday - home sick
Thursday - back to work, spent day slogging through the backlog of the previous two days.
Friday - came in early to attempt to photocopy and scan
ferox's homework to her in Winnipeg. Was successful. Had a happy face all day as self remembered why self likes to do things for others sometimes. ;) Also managed to shake off residual flatness of mood and got a vertible crap-load of work done, including various outstanding things. Came home, did the dance of victory and then went out to the Firkin for dinner due to a temporary rejection of the Griffin due to Maria crazies.
Saturday - Hamilton for the roomie's father's birthday dinner. Fooooood gooooood.
Sunday - Omelette for brunch made by roomie, then set about the Cleaning. Couch vacuumed (finally!) and bulk of cat hair removed, revealing couch is in fact dark green. Dishes done. Laundry partially done, as roomie was doing his and let me toss in my underwear. ;) Called parents and established that they and I are all alive. ;) Then took tea and leftover coffee cake upstairs to provide the hardworkingferox with a break and background noise. More dishes. Borrowed computer to do Zooworld updates, as lappie just isn't liking it lately. :P Came back downstairs, watched wheeler's Twitter feed of the Oscars.
