Monday I was in the office from 08:15 to 14:15, and at the ore geology seminar from 15:00 to 17:00, did the Phire bbq in the evening, then stayed up till just after midnight.

Tuesday I was in the office from 07:55 to 16:25 and then went to Phire practice followed by choir, then went home and did uni work for a couple of hours, getting to bed about 01:30. Phire was extra fun—the first “open training” of the new term, and we had some new students, one of whom is a gymnast, so she was pretty quick to learn some of the acroyoga stuff. She will have a bit of a learning curve in how to balance on a shaky base, but she has the strength to do the poses. Choir was also fun because there were 20 of us. How nice to have a decent number of people again. Hope it lasts.

Wednesday I was in the office from 08:00 to 16:40, then went to the Phire parkour and aerial silks training (one of the new students has done areial silks before, so we were comparing notes—we are both beginners, but know different stuff), followed by Herrksapsdans class (always fun!), and then flaffled around on line, getting to bed a bit before 01:00

This morning (Thursday), I didn’t make it to the office till 08:30, and by 11:00 I was feeling like I was coming down with a bit of a cold, so I went home and slept for four hours, getting up on time to eat a little something before heading in to the Frostheim meeting on campus (the original plan had been to just stay at work being productive till the meeting). At the meeting I started cutting out another linen underlayer like the one I did for my jester costume, only longer this time. The other one is really comfortable in that it is nicely supportive (being laced up rather tightly across the chest), and since I adapted the Eura dress pattern it moves well—I can stand on my hands without the fabric at the waist moving at all. This new one will be even better as it is a much nicer linen (the jester group ordered some pretty cheap/coarse linen for our jester costumes) that I found for sale at the folk costume table at Spelmansstamman the summer before last. It will also be almost knee length (the other one goes just to my bottom, for easier acroyoga), and so will be a better under layer for my tunics. I also plan to fit it all the way to my waist. The short one is fitted to half way down the ribs, and then the hip gores start already. I think it will be even more comfortable to fit it to the bottom of my ribs, and then start the side gores. No idea when I will have time to sew it though. I would love to have it ready to wear already next weekend at the Gyllengran event, but I don’t know that I can spare the sewing time. Indeed, it is a shame didn’t work today though, I have a grant proposal that needs progress and some data reduction to do.

However, the long nap must have helped, as I don’t feel any worse than I did this afternoon, so, with luck, I will be spared being really sick.
