Wow, my watch reckons that burnt an entire 85 kcal.

I am so, so, so bored now!

Wow. Today I had a special day. I completely imagined having lysed some cells last week, and came in to start an experiment on these lysates. Which don't exist. I even slept alright and was in the lab by 8.30, despite more bonkers dreams. Maybe I prepared the lysates in one of my crazy ass dreams. But because of this I have absolutely nothing to do today in the lab, which is more than a little retarded. Instead I watched the Horizon programme "How Mad Are You?" which is the best thing I've seen on TV in quite a substantially long time. I had the bipolar guy and had kind of guessed the depression, but I guess that's the power of editing. Then I did yoga, and amazed myself by actually already improving at a few of the moves we do each week. So that was kind of nice. Then I talked about the TV programme with Gareth for half an hour. And I have to go to a fire safety talk at 2.30, and the fire guy has promised that he has a new video, and we'll be spared the dramatic footage of the Bradford City Stadium fire of 1980 something for the third time in a row. Then I might go home.

It's my third year, and days like this should really not be happening.

For some reason, most days now seem to be fine, except Tuesdays. Next week I should work Sunday and take Tuesday off. Tired.

Beginner's yoga set before bedtime to try and help me to sleep better. Still had crazy crazy dreams but was at least waking up less between them.

Ha ha! Today I endeavoured to try a length of slow front crawl, only to realise that breathing whilst doing so is a skill it's actually possible to lose. I nearly drowned, it was amazing. I had to do some back crawl to recover.
