How am I today? I've been better. Physically, I don't feel well at all. I don't know how much of this is due to the insanely high pollen count, but the cause isn't really what concerns me. I have a runny nose. My head feels all clogged up. I have a headache. And a sore throat (which I blame on the construction in my building--all that dust can't be good for me). And, for some bizarre reason, my left foot hurts. The top of it. It makes no sense. So clearly I need to crawl into a hole and hide until the rain comes, cools everything off, and makes the pollen go away.
In addition, I found out that a new Books Editor has been hired. Her name is Kim and she starts Monday. Monday! Ack! I've gotten very used to my life here without a direct supervisor. It was nice. Kim seemed very suited for the job, but she also seems very...type A personality. Very strong and assertive. A bit intimidating, which I know I'll get over. Suzanne really isn't happy. She wanted the other person we talked to to get the job. Oh well. I definitely think Kim is good for the job...it'll just be interesting seeing what it's like working for her. Monday!
And, you know what? The vacuuming and paint fumes are doing nothing for my headache or general health overall.
Current song in my head:
