Adciezl (who wanted ridiculous amounts of money for earlier books) seem to have vanished into the aether, or at least no longer are trying to flog my book, nor The Leaky Establishment.
I got my fifth annual Public Lending Right statement, and for once they are actually going to pay me some money... as they've dropped the threshold to £1. Not sure what I'll splash out the £1.58 on. Pick and mix perhaps.
And suddenly, perhaps it's exhaustion, but my mood dropped almost exactly on the dot of 11.30pm. I know the trigger, which need not detain us, but it's depressing that it depressed me. In the past 48 hours (Monday and Tuesday) I've done exhausted, angry, happy, content, and now depressed. Probably the failure to get out of bed properly until gone noon should have cued me to the direction of the day.
Boing.
To think that yesterday (Monday) afternoon someone said, "Cheer up, it might never happen." And only about three hours after he had told me I was looking well. This I cannot believe. But I can't see how his first statement could be any use to man nor beast; if I've reason to be unhappy it's crass, if I haven't it's cliché and hardly Wildean.

This week my project manager told me to breathe during a meeting when I was doing his job (i.e. chivvying others into agreeing what their next steps were). Grrr!
Much love and sympathy heading in your general direction.

We had a good night out last night, but the morning was still more or less a write off from exhaustion, after Friday being unproductive too. I got 13 essays graded this afternoon, which leaves the other 13 for tomorrow, and waifs and strays. Oh yes, and about three thousand words which need injecting into an article dammit.
There's another invite for a drink tonight, but it's going to be a large group, and I'm not sure I'm up to that.
