No longer a hermit

My assignment has been submitted and suddenly all is good in the world!  I feel like I've been under a big black cloud for the past fortnight - a cloud full of stress, anger, tiredness and sickness.  Because starting a new job in legal, tax and accounting publishing and writing a 6,000 word essay on risk management in applied finance wasn't enough, someone decided I should also be sick whilst doing all of this.  I stayed up last night trying to finish the assignment until my sentences and words stopped making sense.  I tried to get to bed but my stress and sickness saw me lie in bed for an hour before being able to fall asleep.  And of course I had to come into work early this morning to do a conference call with New Zealand.  To say that I am tired is a bit of an understatement.

I'm also SO behind on my weekly tv shows (although I suspect nothing's changed on MKR and Sophia is still contorting her mouth instead of speaking like a normal person).  I'm so behind on LIFE.  What's been happening??  I haven't been reading the newspaper....  I heard about the Boston marathon on the radio this morning - truly awful.

It also happens to be Tom and my 3-year anniversary today so we're going out to Ms G's tonight to celebrate.  Not really romantic but we're defs keen to try this one hat-ted restaurant and their cocktails!  It's the only thing getting me through the next few hours...
