I'm having one of those weeks where I feel like I cannot drink enough coffee to make me feel awake! I think it's the fact that we have a big project at working coming up, and the fact that the weather is gloomy, and the fact that I feel like I'm approaching burnout and am in need of a break of some sort. So it's a lot of things, basically. I have purposely kept my weekend completely free of plans so I can try to relax (and also finish the Zodiac Academy books, which I have been racing through at a slightly alarming pace). Here's to rest and relaxation.

I don't know if it's the time change or what, but I have been struggling with my productivity and my energy this week - my brain has just felt so foggy all the time! I'm hoping I can come back next week feeling refreshed. I am super excited for this weekend, actually, because I'm seeing the musical Six, and I've been looking forward to this for months! I can't wait.

This week started out pretty slowly, but ramped up pretty quickly and got much busier than anticipated. I also went to the dentist this week for the first time in... a while. Not only was I avoiding all medical appointments that weren't absolutely necessary because of the pandemic, but finding a dentist who is willing to work with me (and my mouth that can't open super wide) is actually a real challenge! So I had really built it up in my head and was dreading the appointment... and it ended up not being bad at all! Which was great, but I definitely felt a little exhausted from all the pent-up anxiety I had before the appointment. Basically, what all of this means is that I'm extremely ready for the weekend.

This week has felt incredibly long as busy - I'm not sure what, exactly, it was that made it feel so exhausting, but on Thursday I was really convinced it should just... be Friday already. I honestly did not do a lot of browsing this week, so the favorites are shorter on articles this usual! There's one heavier post, and then lighter things that I saw and bought or thought about buying.
