Meh.

I just feel totally "meh" today.

Didn't sleep well last night (not sure why), can't work up the motivation to prep the first four chapters for Biostats (which is what I planned on doing today). One of my colleagues called me up with a question and remarked, "looks like we're the only worker bees in here today."

I don't know why that makes me feel crummy, but it does. I don't feel virtuous for being in and sort-of working. I feel sad and lonely and almost a bit cheated, like everyone else is out having fun (when they are probably actually in the field, or doing laundry, or still asleep).

I knit a bit on the Regia Norwegier-red socks last night. I also mostly cut out a couple of pillows that I bought fabric for months ago. And I quilted a bit.

Usually for me, jumping from project to project is a signal that I'm dissatisfied with something or feeling restless.

dang, I hope it rains today and that the heat breaks a little bit. I think that's a big contributor to the "meh" feeling.
