Today is not a good day.
Jul. 9th, 2018 01:20 pmI'm just hitting a wall today. There are so many things I should be doing, but my brain isn't letting me act on them. Just one of those days when I'm reminded that I had a stroke.
The roughest part concerns the Restaurant Guide for Worldcon. We are in the home stretch, and I was calling places to see if they would trade some consideration - a discount or a free item - for an ad in the souvenir book or in the online version of the guide.
What I got was hang-ups, people who could not speak English, answering machines, and places where I left my name with someone and they never called back. A week or work and I got one taker. By 1100hrs today, I was so stressed by this and the fact that we are past deadline that my aphasia kicked in hard. Right now, I literally cannot speak.
Just too much stress. I'm done for the day. The Xbox calls to me.
