Today there were many things I wanted to look at that I didn't get time to look at.
Including:
3. The Green Cleaner: 15 natural ways to spruce up your home
4. Paul McCartney's long-lost experimental Christmas mix-tape for the other Beatles
5. A plethora of cool online events hosted by Cardiff Science Festival - including a tour of the Large Hadron Collider!
The stuff I did get time for:
1. The evening I discussed dish-washing with George Harrison
2. When people say, "We have made it through worse before"
4. The Macca Archive on Twitter
5. This handy finch identification chart (c/o Yolo Birder):
Plus a tiny bit of studying, but not that much :(
I'm learning that I can't maintain my attention for an entire three-hour lecture.
About halfway through, unless it's particularly riveting, I will lose the will to live.
This manifests as irritation and fidgeting, which morphs into anger, and then my eyelids start drooping.
Towards the end today, I woke myself up snoring.
I'm so wiped out by trying to pay close attention for one long session I'm good for nothing afterwards. I need shorter sessions, I need to not to have to sit through lectures on topics I didn't sign up for, and more to the point, I need ADHD medication.
To get ADHD medication I need to be diagnosed by a psychiatrist, there are no short cuts. This is not a speedy process.
On the plus side, this week's lectures have confirmed my suspicion that archaeology is not my subject and I should never, ever, go down that road.
