Love notes

I should be working, but my head is wooly, my body achy, and I just can't seem to give a damn. Hey, that reminds me of this song:

I'm an Adult Now - The Pursuit of Happiness
Sometimes my head hurts and sometimes my stomach hurts
And I guess it won't be long
'Til I'm sitting in a room with a bunch
Of people whose necks and backs are aching
Whose sight and hearing's failing
Who just can't seem to get it up

Ok, accomplishments:

- The due in December software project has made headway :-)

- I had a very lovely, yes I'm using the word lovely because it reminds me of her, lunch with the prof this week. We set up a proper date for the weekend. :-)

- Speaking of which and whom, I leveled the playing field by finally having the "where are we" discussion with the musician. We're not exclusive, and we're both trying to not rush into things as we typically do. She doesn't seem like the "echo you so you hear what you want to hear" type, so I'm trusting (with my standard level of nervousness) that we're alright. We set up a date for the weekend as well. :-)

I do suspect that getting sick has at least something to do with stressing about the stay dating two people concept, but in the end I have to see this through. The problem is the stress, not the cause of the stress: I need to worry less. I wonder if my vow this year to get into more trouble is as much about teaching myself not to worry as it is the realization that you have to be willing to live life in order to live life.

Well, I'm going to eat a lot of oranges and hope for the best.
