Most of today was spent in a haze of tiredness brought on by late nights in work -- four days in a row. Said lack of sleep has been known to cause excessive grumpiness and irritability; however, a Firday spent dozing on the train out of Dublin, building a large roaring fire and then sitting in front of it while watching Flushed Away, eating my first home-cooked meal in weeks, and finally tapping away quietly at the keyboard, while the smell of chocolate cake baking in the oven fills the house.
