still running hard to stay in place
Mar. 21st, 2007 07:49 pmToday I had planned to work and then go to the Spring Rites at Menlo College. I missed it last year but was looking forward to seeing folks. But this morning my body was just rebelling and I slept in, took the morning off and the afternoon's work was enough to do me in. *sigh* My shoulder *is* better. I just is healing more slowly than my impatience demands.
So I was home to go inworld at 6pm to hear a talk on researching pensions by Krag Mariner who, irl, is the owner of Heritage Books. He does wonderful genealogy lectures inworld and now has a genealogy bookstore there. It is really just displays of covers that link one out to the Heritage Books site, but still it is kind of cool. I've been a customer of Heritage for years, of course. Not that I've had a lot of time for genealogy lately.
Tomorrow after work I'm supposed to have a Solo Librarians meeting but I'm leaning toward begging off on that. In fact, I brought my search database home and I have a full day's worth of work I could do from home. Driving, holding my arm out to hold the steering wheel, is one of the hard things. And I *really* am going to do my last stint of docenting on Friday because all the other volunteers, including the director, are working on the flower exhibition. And then go to a meeting inworld and attend a double elevation that evening. And yes, if I stop cranking, the world will stop spinning. I know it isn't entirely sensible and I have an overdeveloped sense of responsibility, but there you have it. Being an eldest child with Sun, Mercury, Venus, North Node & Chiron in Capricorn it is just my nature. I just have to work out how to get my recalcitrant body to cooperate.
