How lovely. No one told me this was going to be Goth poetry. (Actually, it's nearly old enough to be!)

Did I tidy my room? YES! It has been potted and rubbished and I have less laundry than this morning.

Did I go to bed early last night? YES! I think so. I am not actually sure, but I think I did.

Did I take my nighttime anti-migraine pills? YES! I even refilled my weekly pill box.

Did I do my dawn walk? NO! I wasn't awake anywhere near on time.

What's the weather like? Cool and grey.

Did I wash and get dressed in nice clothes? YES! A flannel wash and less 'nice' than 'clean' but enough so I didn't have to change to go out this evening.

Did I do relaxation after breakfast? YES! Properly, with the video.

Did I go out somewhere else too? YES! I *completely forgot* about the Horwich Art Society, and at half past seven I asked Pol if he'd like to go out to eat, and we went for pizza at Pizza Hut and actually had a nice evening - after driving across town to the uncrowded one.

Did I cook? YES! Porridge with dried blueberries, tea and a glass of freshly-squeeze pink grapefruit juice. I didn't cook anything else though. Lunch was a leftover half a grapefruit, a black cherry yoghurt and Tuscan stew (which comes ready made in a foil container from the butcher, you just cook it and eat it, but it's all fresh meat and veg).

Did I take my post-breakfast anti-migraine pills? YES!

Did I do anything energetic? YES! I did a load of washing. I wiped the kitchen sides.

Did I use my brain? YES! I studied some more mythology, did some reading up on runes, I considered the nature of things. My OU course materials have arrived, so I can do tasks actually involving the DVD and source materials now. I shall amend my study schedule accordingly.

Happy things: OU shinies! A nice meal out with Pol. Being horrible to Sessifet. I was watching the balloon last night and was really cheered to find out he'd been hiding in his garage the whole time. People said nice things to me and it's actually starting to dislodge the irrational thoughts (knowing they're irrational doesn't always stop one having such thoughts). I also feel a deep contentment at having followed my routines.

HEALTH

Did I take painkillers? YES! Tramadol last night. Nothing else. I had been going to, but I went out for pizza instead.

Did I have a migraine? YES! I have one now, have had it all evening, and will need drugs before I can actually sleep. There's a police helicopter going about, it's not helping.

Do I feel MEish? YES! My armpits hurt.

How are my sinuses? Cruddy and infected and sore.

Did I sleep well? YES! I think so. I don't remember dreams or waking up. I just shut my eyes and then there was a knock at the door and it was morning.

PLANS

Reading more of _A Broken Flute_ and taking notes. I could get a lot out of applying OU methodology to the reading, I think - the effects it has on me, the context of the words, the meaning and I think I'll leave techniques out, because there's studying a meaningful text and then there's being an arsehole about it.

Possibly to an open air play if I can find details of it. It's somewhere in Bolton at 2:30pm and there's a craft fair on at the same time.
