A beautiful piece of art by Alex Raymond

Let's start off the day with a beautiful piece of art by Alex Raymond.

( Cut for those who don't appreciate art... but really, it's GORGEOUS )

Just look at that technique, and the masterful mixing of media. *sighs*

In other news... ( medical TMI )

. Consequently I'm feeling tired today, and still crampy, dammit.

There's a What Not To Wear marathon on TLC today. It's one of my favorite shows to listen to while I work, so I'm quite pleased.

Time for more coffee.

Failure

I just tried to exercise (low impact aerobics) and failed. I got through the warm up and about five minutes into the workout, and then suddenly felt as if all the strength had drained from the right side of my body. I literally couldn't continue.

But I did get in the sit ups, push ups, and free weights. Not much, but at least it's something.

Looking back over my diabetes and mood logs I realize what a shithole the last few days have been -- ever since April 8th, when I was hit with almost crippling fatigue, and then progressing through various flavors of mental and emotional suffering. Today I still feel quite weak and vulnerable.

But soon there will be fresh coffee and that will make things just a tiny bit better. Ye Gods, I am such a caffeine whore. Or is that "john"?
