Well, not really. But I'm still really tired (and have been for a while, although thankfully it's not the mysterious debilitating tiredness that I experienced in grade nine) and my sinuses (sini?) are still in pain (miserabile sini!). And of course this wasn't helped by staying up late to listen to the internet coverage of last night's wholly depressing Canucks game. I was planning to go to sleep and only listen to part of it (o the trials of cheering for a hockey team that is quite literally a continent away) but it got to a point where I kinda had to continue listening as a point of solidarity. But it was a bad scene.
Anyway I have a lot of Latin to translate today, and a bunch of Greek homework and a massive amount of Livy's War with Hannibal to read that I'm behind on, and I really don't have any motivation to do so. It's not so great. What I really want is some time off, but we just had that for Thanksgiving and it really didn't do me any good.
I'm tempted to go to the doctor and see if they might tell me something new and exciting about my sinuses that will stop them from being unhappy. But I strongly suspect that they'll just say something about them being dry ("use the saline nasal spray!") or try to get me to use nasonex again (which actually made my sinuses hurt even more). Both of which are things that are not worth my time to go and hear again, because I'm not going to use Nasonex, and I don't like the bloody saline stuff either. I was considering going to the sauna at the pool, but I just remembered that it's a dry sauna, so it wouldn't do anything good for el sini.
Okay, I'm going to stop complaining now.
Exciting stuff is that I'm going to a presentation on Graduate Studies at the University of Edinburgh this afternoon. It's for the department of History, Archeology and Classics, all of which are things in which I'm interested. And I keep thinking about Grad school and being crazy because I don't really know what I would need to do yet. I figure, presentations = a good start.
Anyway I think I'm going to go and get some paperwork done now. YEay! Or not.

I have had troubles in and around my nose and ears and throat for as long as I can remember and this is the only thing that gives some relief. If you want more info email me (I'm out tonight). It's kinda TMI if you don't want to know about it. And it's a good thing to remind myself to do, too.

I'm sorry your sini are a problem.
Edinburgh is quite a cool place. Be sure to get details on location. When I was last there the campus I was on was miles from downtown, but that may just have been the technical side
