Sometimes I have days that feel wasted, and it helps to inventory actual accomplishments.
Thus: I have done the laundry (and folded about a third of it thus far); I have sent an application for a proofreading project (which I suspect is actually a copyediting project); I have cooked lunch.
Unfortunately, I started feeling queasy about 2/3 of the way through lunch--which had been quite tasty until that moment--and didn't eat any more. So I'm sitting here, watching a cup of jasmine dragon tea brew and listening to Dennis Elsas on WFUV, and trying to avoid tedious grumbling. (I may delete this entire post later; don't leave deathless prose in comments unless you keep backups elsewhere.)
Addendum: The blessings of a well-stocked kitchen: I am now eating basmati rice with fresh ginger root (ginger being good for stomach and digestive troubles, and one of my favorite flavors), and drinking another cup of the dragon tea.

More good luck to you... and speedy recovery from the whatever that interrupted the enjoyment of your lunch.
