The week starts out with a whimper

Well, I have a flareup of the eye thing with NO cause.
Except stress. I really got to myself yesterday I guess.
My neck and arm have been itching since 6:30.
And did I mention I have never slept as badly as I did last night?
We don't have the heat on and I have the window WIDE open - why was I hot? I actually turned on my fan. It's November, with a wide open window I should be huddled under the blankies, toasty warm against the freeze. I have no clue what's going on around here. And JUST as I went to bed, the people upstairs came home. Now usually I'm still up, but I was feeling queasy last night after an excess of alcohol. She dropped her shoes RIGHT over my head. And here I thought Teh Unit was just a whiner. They literally kept waking me up for an hour, mostly due to me sleeping fitfully. If I'd fallen into a real sleep I'd have been fine. THEN I had to pee. Badly. Enough to wake up and go.
Sleep comes, as my alarms go off. I drift, hearing the TV, but not actually awake enough to wake up. Except for the itching. Which is getting worse and worse. I need a shower, desperately. Planning on having one shortly.
It has to be stress, my subconscious is hard at work undermining my authority. Today's meeting should be oodles of fun. There's a couple of things that have me all messed up, emotionally. And I'm not dealing with them on the surface, so it MUST be the subconscious saying "heh heh heh, screw you white girl, we're going to make you work on this! Whether you're ready to or not."
Shower. Then coffee, and some cereal. My eating plans are waiting til later today, when I can shop. Plus I have cereal left, I'd like to finish. Then I need to answer some emails, print out an invoice, then off to the office, to deal with some stuff. Then the meeting. Then I don't know what. Thankfully I have a late day tomorrow, I just have to get up, vote, and head to my client.
And shut my window, since I'm finally cold. WTF?

Date: 2004-11-01 07:53 am (UTC)I'm pretty sure it's stress - I was one huge stress puppy last night. I started thinking, which lead to something I never do - excessive drinking.
(which actually could itself be the trigger - shots of rum instead of mixed drinkies)
it's the skin around the eyes, plus areas that haven't finished healing from the last flareup.
I'm just going to try and chill out, and not scratch.

Date: 2004-11-01 08:39 am (UTC)My eyes are actually much improved from the shower. I'm sure I just need to go through a cleaning regimine a bit more often.

Date: 2004-11-01 08:17 am (UTC)But you didn't see the thought process I went through yesterday. I really believe I stressed myself into a flareup.
*shrugs* It's not so bad, except my neck is REALLY itchy. *owie*

Date: 2004-11-01 10:49 am (UTC)That post was only about HALF of what I put myself through yesterday. I started it with a lot to write and a glass of rum, and when the rum was gone so were my thoughts. *grins*
I need to NOT stay home alone. It was pretty damn awful. I need to get MY work done during the week, and then have weekends for play.
I'm very itchy now waiting for a meeting, and trying to baby a report I'm growing to despise. *heh* I'm sure I'll be FAR LESS itchy after my meeting!
