Ramadan Day 4
Mar. 14th, 2024 10:05 pmSurprisingly tougher day today. I noticed my hunger cues a lot more, didn't eat enough at suhoor and I really felt it throughout the day. Was also kicking the not-quite-sick-but-a-little-yuck feeling from yesterday which further drained my energy. I'm realizing that unlike my typical schedule of easier tasks in the morning and building up to work in the evening (when I am both more productive and under more time crunch) I now have to do more work in the mornings when my energy is at its peak. By the end of the day I just peter out.
3/3 on calls, emails, faxes. Made some postcards that I'm planning to address and mail tomorrow afternoon when I feel the schlump coming around 3-4 PM. Started rewatching How to Survive a Plague (easily one of my favorite and most precious documentaries) and realized there was an ACT UP protestor in the St. Patrick's cathedral die-in wearing a kuffiyeh. I hadn't noticed on prior watches. Grateful to find new familiarity in media that truly changed my wiring.
