leafing through

It’s not yet winter but, temps in the 30s and 40s? It’s winter according to me! I taped up some windows on Monday with that plastic insulation sheeting. They’re the notorious breezy windows in our kitchen eating area, which is like the Siberia of our house it’s such a cold corner. Those thin plastic sheets may look like nothing, but they make such a huge difference. I should’ve done it in October. I guess new windows would work too. I’ll have to look into that (meaning, not anytime soon).

I’m morphing into a bear. My body is in full force hibernation mode. I am so super sleepy all the time, I’m not even hiding about sleeping in meetings with my boss anymore. Yesterday I was on a conference call in my boss’ office. He was driving back from another meeting and was showing up any minute but I just sat back, took my shoes off, put my feet up and just semi-zonked and listened in on the meeting. He walks in and goes, “make yourself comfortable!” Heh, woops. Anyway, we had another meeting in the auditorium and it was so warm and dark that I kept drifting off while my boss was sitting right behind me. I am such an awful employee. If he gives me a bad rating this annual review process, I wouldn’t even argue it. Besides all that sleeping, I can’t seem to fill up enough on food. I literally non-stop eat all the time. I mean, I eat like I haven’t had a meal in 5 days when really, it was more like 5 minutes. And even though we’re allowed to wear jeans on casual Fridays, I’ve been wearing my usual work clothes to work anyway because, my jeans don’t fit OMG I’m having issues. My work pants are snug, but I’ve been managing to squeeze into them in the mornings. Plus, I don’t feel like going to the gym anymore. Remember the sleepy thing? I need this winter to be over. I’m so tired of the darkness and cold. All I have to do now is stop dehairing and my bear transition will be complete.
