I'm completely overloaded and panicing today. I emailed in sick to my classes, because it's true enough. There are so many things fighting for importance in my head that I can't do anything at all. Total and complete lockup.

So I shut the doors and am trying to sort it all through.

I have a 4:30 GM meeting I really can't miss, and I'll have tons to do this weekend, but for the next three hours I'm working at relieving the pressure inside and outside my head. Don't worry; no literal spikes will be used.

Oh, and I desperately need a new glasses prescription. After spending so much time awake and working I decided to give my eyeballs a rest and went from contacts to my glasses for a while. Big mistake. It took me almost three days to connect the difference in prescription to the headaches I was having. I'm so used to headaches coming on from dehydration, I neglected to think it could be anything else.

It wasn't until I lost the ability to focus without my brain physically hurting more that I put two and two together. Back home and with contacts in, at least that torment has eased.

Now I'm resting for a few hours and then playing a game of life-tetris, where the blocks are assignments, and the column is my day-to-day life. I've gotta work that pile down, because level 9's coming up.
