Tasks - & the Moral of the story is..

..don't overload on carbs the night before your Presentation is due!

Umm, yes, well, 2 bowls of VelvetBurger's chips & sauce (garlic mayo), Plus
(later on) a Domino's (No i'm NOT getting paid to say this!) Double-Bacon-&-Cheese pizza..

..this morning everything was clogged up:
my head (felt like a lump of pizza base);
Port Chalmers main street (with roadworks & a Stop-Go man);
the Open Access suite (with students);
the Internet (with people trying to get online)..

I'd actually gotten up, dressed, got my stuff together ready to walk out the door, then thought:
"i'm feeling a bit tired; i think i'll just have a lie-down.."

..about 2pm i surfaced rapidly ("blow main ballast - aaooogah!" - been reading submarine warfare stories), & realised that i'd completely missed the morning's work, that i had better get A into G, & email Peter B with my PowerPoint (i use Open Office Impress @home - it's FREE! So is Belarc Advisor - a very useful little diagnostic app) & explain that i really had it all ready for the morning's lecture..

(sigh)

Maybe i can do that now, & then have a go at more Tasks.
