I like late nights. I like staying up till the world around us grow quiet and I can hear myself thinking. I like caffeinated drinks: coffee, tea and various soft drinks. And I like working away until I finish things and then have a long, meandering chat with the Boyfriend. Unfortunately my body does not agree with me and so today I am incredibly shattered to the point that I began crying in public today for no apparent reason. Embarrassing, yes, and also worrying.
Pledge to myself: I’ll quit misbehaving and begin listening to my body again. Everything else is just plain silliness and I’m too old to be silly.
A few random links:
- Les Garcons de Glasgow. A Glasgow street style blog. I’m slightly unsettled by how many of these people I know (sort of) and how many photos have been taken in our neighbourhood. Also: looking like a drunk East German hairdresser circa 1983 is really not cute (or go the whole way and get yourself a Trabi)
- Caring for Your Intro-Vert: I spent years and years thinking I was a quiet extro-vert. Yeah, I know. Link via Anna.
- Interior Design from Scandinavia. My old Copenhagen flat looked like a cluttered version of this photo. You can take a girl out of Scandinavia..
- And if you are in London, make sure to catch the V&A exhibition on quilting. It looks fabulous and I wish I lived close enough to actually make my merry way there. So catch it on my behalf, mm?
Most important: taking care of yourself! Obvious? Yes. Bears repeating? Hell yes!
(Liking the links btw :))
I know. I just forget sometimes and get silly. Fortunately nothing is so bad that it cannot be cured by a good night’s sleep ;) Huggles to you, hon.
Hope you sleep well tonight. And thank you so much for the introvert link, I wish I could have passed that article out when I was a teenager.
I’m developing a theory that getting the right amount of sleep is the secret to life, the universe and everything: poor concentration, unhealthy eating, depression, spots, low energy…
Now to develop my magic sleep dial which fits to your left or right wrist and allows you to set a sleep timer which becomes active after 15 seconds (so you can lie down) and automatically wakes you after a set period of time.
But first, I think I need more coffee…
