"You always look so tired."

[eye_of_a_cat]

Apart from the fact that this doesn't ever sound like a compliment, it's just annoying. I thought I was organising my time and work quite well. Apparently, I am organising my time and work quite well - but the effect of this is that I'm existing at some low level of tiredness all the time, that other people can see this, and that I don't even notice. Can't I at least fool people? Bah.

In better news, a student who's usually the quietest and shyest person alive, and who's only just recently started speaking at all without looking absolutely terrified of it, turned up to class yesterday all happy and confident and enthusiastic about discussing things. And she brought grapes, too.

You can if you really want, but all my UK calls are free (Toucan Telecom, very useful - and it's only 3p to Israel), so there's not much point! Yup, should be around on Friday. I've just acquired a book of Victorian ghost stories, but it's being saved for later.
